Trump Defends US Military Action Against Iran, Calls for Total VictoryPreviousNext

On Veterans Day at Arlington National Cemetery, President Donald Trump defended the US military actions against Iran, stating that America did not start the conflict, which he said began with Iran's hostility since 1979. Trump emphasized that the US has fought back decisively, aiming for a total victory rather than a partial one. He noted the conflict began seven months ago, acknowledged American casualties, and predicted the war would end soon, highlighting significant damage to Iran's capabilities, including preventing its nuclear weapon development.
