Thanks very a lot.
A short while in the past, the US navy carried out large, precision strikes on the three key nuclear facilities within the Iranian regime. Fordo, Natanz and Esfahan. Everyone heard these names for years as they constructed this horribly damaging enterprise.

That was their specialty. We misplaced over 1,000 individuals and tons of of 1000’s all through the Center East, and around the globe have died as a direct results of their hate specifically. So many have been killed by their normal, Qassim Soleimani. I made a decision a very long time in the past that I’d not let this occur. It won’t proceed.

We labored as a staff like maybe no staff has ever labored earlier than, and we’ve gone an extended method to erasing this horrible menace to Israel. I wish to thank the Israeli navy for the great job they’ve executed. And most significantly, I wish to congratulate the good American patriots who flew these magnificent machines tonight, and all the United States navy on an operation the likes of which the world has not seen in lots of, many many years.
Hopefully, we are going to not want their providers on this capability. I hope that’s so. I additionally wish to congratulate the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Employees, Normal Dan “Razin” Caine, spectacular normal, and all the sensible navy minds concerned on this assault.
