Bush Refuses To Rule Out Nuclear Strikes on Iran

HeadlineApr 19, 2006

At the White House Tuesday, President Bush refused to rule out the use of nuclear weapons in the impasse over Iran’s nuclear program. “All options are on the table,” Bush said. “We want to solve this issue diplomatically and we’re working hard to do so. The best way to do so is there for (sic) to be a united effort with countries who recognize the danger of Iran having a nuclear weapon. And that’s why we’re working very closely with countries like France and Germany and Great Britain. I intend, of course, to bring the subject up of Iranian ambitions to have a nuclear weapon with Hu Jintao this Thursday. We’ll continue to work diplomatically to get this problem solved.”
