President's Military Strategy Against Iran
The most important job any president has is to keep the American people safe.
And every president says it,
but we have a president that means it and does something about it.
As the president outlined very clearly to the world on the
night this operation began,
Iran has been at war with the United States for 47 years.
For 47 years,
Iran has been killing Americans and attacking Americans across this planet.
And other presidents had an opportunity to do something about it.
And they all warned about how Iran was dangerous, but they refused to act.
And this president is not someone that's going to refuse to act.
He's not going to leave a danger like this in place.
He's going to address it, and that is what he is doing.
From the very first night of this operation, the president made it very clear.
People like this, and now what I'm talking about is not the people of Iran.
The people that run this country are radical Shia clerics.
These are religious fanatics.
Look what they are doing now at their weakest point.
This is the weakest Iran has ever been, and look at what they're doing.
They're attacking embassies. They're embassies. They're attacking hotels.
Imagine what these people would do if they had a nuclear weapon.
That is an unacceptable risk for the world.
By the way, the president's not just doing a favor to the United States
and to our people. This is for the world.
He defined very clearly on the first night of this operation what the goal was.
We were going to destroy Iran's navy, and that is happening. We were going to,
if it hasn't already happened, I'll let Pete speak to the specifics of it.
We were going to destroy their missile launching capabilities.
We're well underway to achieving that goal.
We were going to destroy the factory so they couldn't make more missiles and more
drones, and that is moving forward.
Every single objective the president clearly laid out on the first night of
this operation is being effectuated.
Again, Pete will speak to the specifics of it.
This has been an incredibly successful operation.
Every day, it may not get covered because, you know, unlike them,
we're not bombing embassies and hotels. We're hitting military targets.
