[Trump: May Consider Striking Iran if Negotiations Fail] Golden Finance reported on June 8 that when asked what he would do if such an agreement could not be reached, U.S. President Trump stated that he would consider launching a commando raid on Iran. He said: 'This implies two possible actions: First, we might deploy troops to resolve previously unaddressed targets through military means; or, we will maintain the blockade on Iran, as the power of the blockade may be more effective than any previous attacks on the country.'
