President Trump announced surprise nuclear talks with Iran, sparking debate on conservative news programs. On NEWSMAX’s “National Report,” UN Watch director Hillel Neuer and former U.S. Ambassador to Israel David Friedman warned against trusting Iran. They argued Tehran uses negotiations to buy time for nuclear weapons development. Neuer called Iran’s leaders “liars who laugh at weak diplomacy.” Friedman urged Trump to demand Iran completely dismantle its nuclear program.
The conservative commentators praised Trump for keeping military options open. Friedman said, “Weakness invites aggression. Strength gets results.” They highlighted Iran’s history of cheating on past deals. Neuer noted Iran still funds terrorist groups while talking peace. Both agreed talks should focus on protecting Israel first.
Trump’s announcement came after meeting Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu. The Israeli leader wants Iran’s nuclear program destroyed like Libya’s was in 2003. Netanyahu warned Trump that half-measures won’t work. Iran immediately rejected giving up its nuclear work.
Some conservatives worry Trump might settle for a bad deal. Friedman insisted America must walk away if Iran won’t fully surrender its nuclear capabilities. He said sanctions should crush Iran’s economy until they beg for mercy. Neuer added that Europe’s leaders can’t be trusted to stand firm.
Democrats and liberal media praised the talks as a chance for peace. But NEWSMAX guests called this naïve. They pointed to Iran’s new underground bunkers and enriched uranium stockpiles. Satellite photos show Iran expanding nuclear sites during negotiations.
Trump told reporters he hates war but won’t let Iran get nukes. He said Israel would face extinction if Iran builds bombs. The president warned Tehran is in “great danger” if talks fail. Military plans are reportedly ready if diplomacy collapses.
Netanyahu’s team wants U.S. strikes on Iranian facilities if needed. They argue bombing would set back Iran’s program for years. Critics say this could start regional war, but conservatives say stronger action should’ve happened sooner.
The NEWSMAX segment ended with a call for American strength. Friedman said, “Peace comes through power, not paperwork.” Neuer urged viewers to pressure leaders against bad deals. The show promoted NEWSMAX’s conservative coverage as an alternative to “liberal media spin.”
