Trump says 'considering' limited military strike on Iran

U.S. President Donald Trump said Friday he is contemplating a limited military strike on Iran, in case a deal on its nuclear program is not reached.

Asked by a reporter if he is "considering a limited military strike if Iran doesn't make a deal," Trump answered: "The most I can say -- I am considering it."
