Trump hails ‘beautiful B-2 bombers,’ vows Iran will never get nukes: What does it mean for Pickaxe?

Trump has previously suggested the US may need to strike the facility, claiming it could be taken out quickly.

Is Washington preparing another strike, or using the threat to pressure Tehran into a deal?
