  "account": "Former US journalist Tucker Carlson reported on November 1 that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is urging US President Donald Trump to launch a nuclear strike against Iran as early as next week. Carlson stated that Trump is expected to make the decision by November 7. The target identified by Israeli intelligence is Pickax Mountain in central Iran, where it is believed Tehran has resumed uranium enrichment. Given that conventional US weaponry cannot penetrate the 300 feet of granite, Israel is advocating for a nuclear option to be employed by the White House.\n\nCarlson claims that Netanyahu's government, which was recently formed following a recent election, is motivated by the need for war. On the other hand, Vice President Kamala Harris and envoy Steve Witkoff are actively promoting a potential deal with Iran as an alternative. Carlson has previously accused Trump of instigating the Iran conflict and warned that a nuclear attack could establish a dangerous precedent. According to Carlson, Pakistan and India would likely feel compelled to reciprocate in a similar manner, as would North Korea against Seoul. The fallout from a ground blast at Pickax Mountain would contaminate the Persian Gulf water supply, which is home to over 100 million people and where millions of Pakistanis work and access a substantial portion of their oil and LNG. Carlson's claims were not confirmed by US or Israeli officials.",
