Trump Says He Is Close to Launching 'Massive Attack' on Iran

US President Donald Trump has warned he is close to ordering a 'massive attack' on Iran — bigger than any previous strike — telling Axios that preparations are already in place. Iran's nuclear ambitions and its longstanding vow to destroy Israel place this potential military escalation at the heart of end-times geography, as Iran (ancient Persia) is identified in Ezekiel 38 as a key aggressor nation in the climactic war against Israel. Ezekiel 38:5 names Persia explicitly among the coalition that will come against Israel in the latter days, and mounting US-Iran tensions signal how rapidly the prophetic stage is being set.
