The President argued Iran’s pursuit of nuclear weapons and its past support for terror justified the kind of regime change war that Trump previously campaigned against.
Trump previously ordered Operation: Midnight Hammer last June, which Trump announced obliterated Iran’s nuclear weapons program.
That operation was a one-and-done bombing campaign that lasted a matter of hours.
Trump’s latest military operation offers a higher risk and a higher reward.
After Operation: Midnight Hammer, Iran conducted a face-saving counterattack that it informed the U.S. of ahead of time.
This time, Iran launched missiles at Israel and U.S. bases in Jordan, Qatar, Bahrain, Kuwait, and Saudi Arabia.
Fox News Channel Pentagon correspondent Jennifer Griffin said Iran’s missiles were already hitting Israel.
“The Iranian missiles are already starting to land. We understand that about 40 missiles have landed in Israel, and the U.S. military in Iraq intercepted at least one missile targeting U. S. facilities in Erbil,” Griffin told viewers.
Griffin explained that this retgime changer operations was a multifaceted war designed to disarm Iran and create the conditions for the people to install a new government.
“It appears that this operation has three parts to it. Remove the current Iranian leadership, destroy Iran’s ballistic missile capability, and target the other aspects of Iran’s nuclear program,” Griffin added.
Griffin went on to say that her sources indicated this war could go on for weeks and escalate quickly if Iran actually strikes any U.S. warships or bases.
“The panic is probably starting to set in as they realize this is not going to be a sort of one-and-done set of strikes. In fact, I’m talking to people who suggest that while this won’t be a matter of hours, it will be a matter of days, but really, it could be up to a matter of weeks as well. This is a war at this point, and the way Iran behaves and if it manages to hit any U.S. facilities or any U.S. warships, then we’re in a completely different situation,” Griffin continued.
“So this has the potential to escalate. The U.S. military is built up in a way, and they’ve certainly planned for the kind of response that we’re seeing from Iran and, frankly, we’re not seeing as massive a wave of missiles as we saw, say, back in April of 2024 when they were trying to overwhelm Israel’s missile defense systems. We aren’t seeing that yet. They may be holding back a bit, but this is going to go on for days,” Griffin concluded.
