Moscow has condemned Trump's warning to bomb Iran if it refuses a new nuclear deal, calling it an unacceptable "ultimatum."  Iran is now considering a PRE-EMPTIVE STRIKE at Diego Garcia!

Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov said U.S. strikes on Iran's nuclear infrastructure would destabilize the entire region and urged Washington to de-escalate.

Trump's message was clear: no deal means unprecedented bombing and renewed sanctions.

Tehran rejected talks, prompting Trump to say, "It will be bombing the likes of which they have never seen." 

Senior Iranian military officials are reportedly advocating for a preemptive strike on the US military base at Diego Garcia, citing concerns that it may soon be used as a launchpad for operations against Iran.
