US President Trump says "considering a massive attack greater than anything before, I'm close to making a decision", N12 reports; "Israel will join in within 2 minutes if I ask"

Israel "would join in two minutes if I ask them to," but added that "we don't need anybody" to launch a new operation against Iran. Trump didn't give a deadline for his decision. Two other US officials confirmed no call has been made and no new orders have been given to the military. Trump said the Iranians "want to negotiate" but are not ready to make a deal at the moment. "They haven't received enough pain yet," he said. Two regional sources with knowledge of mediation efforts said Iranian leadership hasn't accepted the latest proposal put forward. "We are trying, but the Iranians are not being helpful," one of them said.
