  • This is Apple News Today.

  • On today's show,

  • we'll assess perhaps the most consequential days of the Trump administration so far.

  • There will be either peace

  • or there will be tragedy for Iran far greater

  • than we have witnessed over the last eight days.

  • America has been truly unsurpassed.

  • It has done what no other country on earth could do.

  • The United States itself has now also opted for a dangerous military operation

  • and aggression against the people of Iran.

  • Violence and destruction could reach unthinkable levels and the global non-proliferation regime

  • as we know it would crumble and fall.

  • We're going to examine major questions

  • about President Trump's decision to strike three Iranian nuclear facilities over the weekend.

  • The first question we'll explore, were the strikes successful?

  • The second, how close is Iran to obtaining a nuclear weapon?

  • And third, was Trump's unilateral action legal?

  • Let's start with the basics of what happened.
