Ten days of Operation Epic Fury have passed, and War Secretary Pete Hegseth asserted that the United States is“winning” against the “barbarian” Iranians, and that Tehran has been“racing” toward a nuclear bomb.
He listed in a Pentagon press briefing Tuesday morning that war objectives are to destroy missiles and the defense industrial base, to destroy Iran’s navy, and to ensure Iran can never obtain a nuclear weapon. He stressed that the goal includes to“permanently deny Iran nuclear weapons forever.“
He added:“We will not relent until the enemy is totally and entirely defeated.”This comes the day after President Trump said that he believes the war could end soon, even as Iranian officialssignal they are preparing for a prolonged conflict.
“I think the war isvery complete,pretty much,” Trump told CBS News. “They have no navy, no communications, they’ve got no air force.” Hours later in afternoon remarks from Florida, Trump warned that Iran would face massive retaliation if it tried to disrupt global oil flows, saying the United States would strike Tehran“20 times harder” if it attempted to block tankers in the Strait of Hormuz.
The Pentagon’s Tuesday morning briefing really emphasized steady destruction of Iranian missile sites – even underground ballistic launch bunkers – with heavy bunker busters. However, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has rejected Washington claims that its missile program has been destroyed, saying it islaunching larger volleys of missiles with warheads weighing more than one ton.
Iran has continued retaliatory strikes on Israel and Gulf allies, including in Bahrain, Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates, and Saudi Arabia. One person was killed in Manama and two others were killed in central Israel Monday into Tuesday.
