Trump Claims Israel Would Be Gone Without His Leadership

  • On Sunday, United States forces struck two Iranian missile launchers on Larak Island near the Strait of Hormuz, operated by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and preparing to deploy mines into the strategic waterway.
  • President Donald Trump justified the strike by denouncing Iran's regime as "very evil," claiming that without his presidency, the nation would possess nuclear weapons and Israel would be destroyed.
  • Citing the regime's violent crackdown in January, Trump stated it was "a very good thing" that Iran lost support in the Middle East, noting 52,000 protesters killed and "they've added very substantially to that list."
  • Iran responded by launching ballistic missiles toward US forces in Jordan, while Trump touted the effectiveness of the US naval blockade and economic pressure on Tehran.
  • Warning of broader risks, Trump argued a nuclear-armed Iran would threaten the United States and Europe, adding, "I think the Middle East would have essentially been gone but Israel definitely would have been gone.
