US President Trump is struggling with what may be the largest decision of his presidency, amid vast domestic and global pressures and counter-pressures pushing him in opposite directions.

Reuters reported for the first time that Iran is offering fresh concessions since its talks ended last week, when the sides appeared far apart and were heading toward military conflict.

No immediate US official response to these remarks was identified in the reports reviewed by The Jerusalem Post at the time of publication

The potential concession would test the limits of longstanding US demands that Iran’s nuclear program not leave any possible path to a bomb.

Tehran's crackdown on protesters and minority groups has intensified as the regime faces mounting pressure both domestically and internationally.

A smaller attack on Iran would target a few military or government sites, designed to be small enough not to provoke major retaliation and force Iran to agree to a deal favorable to the US.

As 40 days of mourning end and US forces mass in the region, voices from Tehran and Mashhad speak of anger, fear and hope for change.

Although the decision is not final, Trump expressed disappointment in Iran's negotiating positions throughout the week, according to sources.

US moves Air Force and naval assets to the Middle East amid rising tensions with Iran, while regional allies remain largely silent and take a cautious, wait-and-see approach.
