Marjorie Taylor Greene claims US discusses nuclear options against Iran

Former US Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene has claimed that officials in Washington are discussing the potential use of nuclear weapons against Iran during strategy meetings. Greene alleged that authorities are considering lowering the threshold for nuclear use, warning that such a move could lead to a “nuclear holocaust” and a wider global war.

The White House, the Pentagon, and major news organizations have not confirmed these allegations. The claims come amid heightened tensions following a military campaign launched by the US and Israel in February, which targeted Iranian nuclear sites to prevent the country from developing atomic weapons.

While the Trump administration has maintained a “maximum pressure” strategy involving sanctions and military strikes, officials have typically used the phrase “all options are on the table” rather than specifically confirming nuclear discussions. The conflict has already seen Iranian retaliation through strikes on regional targets and restrictions on the Strait of Hormuz.
