Israeli media reports that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is preparing to present President Donald Trump with intelligence that Iran has accelerated efforts to make a nuclear weapon. 

According to Israel’s Channel 12 News, Netanyahu plans to make the case to Trump that Iran is racing for a nuclear weapon when the two leaders meet on Tuesday. Tel Aviv has long sought to convince Washington that war against Iran is necessary as Tehran is attempting to make a nuclear weapon. 

Netanyahu will present the intelligence following Trump’s decision not to significantly escalate the war against Iran over the weekend. Channel 12 reported that the IDF was anticipating a significant attack on Iran Saturday, but Trump was convinced by his top aides to give more time for negotiations to progress. 

However, an Israeli official told the outlet that Tel Aviv negotiations are unlikely to lead to an agreement and the war will escalate. “The chances of reaching an agreement between the United States and Iran are virtually nonexistent,” a senior Israeli source said, adding that an eventual escalation in the conflict is “inevitable.”

On Friday, Trump met with top advisers about ordering new operations against Iran. Top military officials, including the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, told Trump that while the military was capable of conducting the operations, doing so would dangerously thin the US stockpile of advanced interceptors. 

Through the first 39 days of the war, the US used about half of its stockpiles of key munitions, including JASSM, Tomahawk, SM-3, SM-6, Patriot, and THAAD missiles. The inventory will take years to replenish.
