Tucker Carlson has warned that President Donald Trump may be considering a nuclear strike on Iran's Pickaxe Mountain as early as November 7, following pressure from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Carlson claims that the underground facility, buried beneath 300 feet of granite, is beyond the reach of conventional American weapons, making a nuclear attack the only military option. The potential consequences of such an attack, according to Carlson, include contaminating Persian Gulf water supplies, disrupting global energy markets, and encouraging other nuclear powers to escalate their conflicts. Despite Carlson's claims, there has been no official confirmation of a nuclear strike proposal or decision deadline. The allegation has sparked controversy within the Republican Party, with some supporters fearing another disastrous escalation of the Iran war and others accusing Carlson of spreading misinformation.
