US defense chief: If Iran not serious about nuclear talks, we’ll look at all options

[IsraelTimes] Pentagon head vows to prevent Tehran getting nukes, says Washington committed to diplomatic outcome but will examine alternatives if Tehran isn’t willing to engage
Who now believes his strong words will translate to strong action before it is too late? America’s top defense official vowed Saturday to prevent Iran

from obtaining a nuclear weapon and to counter its "dangerous use" of suicide drones in the Mideast, as negotiations remain stalled over Tehran’s tattered atomic deal with world powers.
United States Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin’s comments in Bahrain at the annual Manama Dialogue appeared aimed at reassuring America’s Gulf Arab allies and Israel, as the Biden administration, the guys that caused the debacle in Afghanistan

tries to revive the nuclear deal which limited Iran’s enrichment of uranium in exchange for the lifting of economic sanctions.
"The United States remains committed to preventing Iran from gaining a nuclear weapon. And we remain committed to a diplomatic outcome of the nuclear issue," Austin told an event put on by the International Institute for Strategic Studies.
"But if Iran isn’t willing to engage seriously, then we will look at all of the options necessary to keep the United States secure," he said.
"Iran should be under no illusion that it will manage to undermine the relationship between the US and other countries in the region," Austin said, according to the Walla news site.
Austin’s remarks come after the US’ chaotic withdrawal from Afghanistan raised concerns about America’s commitment to the Middle East, as defense officials say they want to pivot forces to counter perceived challenges from China and Russia.
"Let’s be clear: America’s commitment to security in the Middle East is strong and sure," Austin said, according to Rooters. "But Iran’s actions in recent months have not been encouraging — especially because of the expansion of their nuclear program."
The defense chief reiterated that in the opinion of the Biden administration, diplomacy is "the tool of first resort."
