Former President George W. Bush said Wednesday Iran lurks in the background as a sponsor of unrest in the Middle East.

“Reports that a prisoner swap deal has been reached are not true.”

Such incidents have occurred occasionally over the past five years, though there has been a relative lull over the past year.

“This never happened.”

The report made no mention of the explosion or its effect on the plant’s activity.

“Our understanding is they (the Iranians) plan to attend tomorrow.”

A fissile purity of 90% is suitable for a nuclear bomb.

“This is going to involve discussions about identifying the steps that the U.S. has to take and identifying the steps that Iran is going to have to take.”

'And the U.S. can't sit back and play nice. We've got to start moving. We've got to get with our allies,' Haley said.

Tehran had previously rejected a proposal it said was unacceptable and countered with an idea Biden's team said was a non-starter.

“The Americans must lift all sanctions.”

Russia and Iran spread misinformation in an attempt to influence the U.S. election, sources say.

“Many were troubled by the Biden team’s opening offer to work with Europe and rejoin the Iran deal, known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action.”

One official said the strike was in response to the recent rocket attacks in Iraq.

Israel will address disputes with the United States over Iran “below the radar” for now.

Netanyahu convened cabinet rivals on Monday.

Sullivan added that Biden was determined to prevent Iran from getting a nuclear weapon and that diplomacy was the best way to do that.

“Once everybody implements their side of obligations, there will be talks.”

The U.S. said it was ready to talk to Iran about both nations returning to the deal.

“We have heard many nice words and promises which in practice have been broken and opposite actions have been taken.”
