EDGARTOWN, MA — Former President Barack Obama is reportedly upset after President Donald Trump ordered a military airstrike that left a major Iran nuclear site destroyed. The news came over the weekend as Trump confirmed the U.S. had targeted key Iranian nuclear facilities in a mission aimed at preventing further development of nuclear weapons.
Obama expressed disappointment over seeing the Iran nuclear site destroyed, particularly since his administration had worked on diplomatic agreements that included funding meant for peaceful purposes. Sources close to the former president revealed he was saddened to see the results of years of diplomatic efforts undone in a single strike.
“All of that careful planning, negotiation, and financial support was meant to steer Iran away from dangerous activities,” Obama reportedly said. “Now, with this nuclear site destroyed, we’re back to square one.”
Trump, in contrast, celebrated the success of the mission, describing it as a necessary step for U.S. national security. He emphasized that eliminating the Iran nuclear threat was long overdue.
Security analysts noted that the destruction of the nuclear site could have wide-reaching implications for stability in the region. Meanwhile, Obama’s allies voiced concern that the strike could undermine future diplomatic talks.
