"With the world watching closely, the Donald Trump administration is signaling that it believes decisive action now may prevent a far more dangerous confrontation later."
"War Secretary Pete Hegseth delivers stark warning about Iran’s underground nuclear ambitions while standing firmly behind Trump’s decisive military action. He delivered a forceful and unflinching message to the nation this week, declaring that the United States “didn’t start this war, but we will finish it” as he revealed what he described as a deeply troubling nuclear threat developing under the Iranian regime.
"Pete Hegseth spoke as the Pentagon confirmed that a fourth U.S. service member had died following Iranian strikes on an American base in Kuwait, a sobering development that underscored the gravity of the moment.
“ 'War is hell and it always will be,” Secretary Pete Hegseth said, acknowledging the painful cost as American troops continue operating in a volatile region. His remarks came as officials confirmed the additional casualty, marking another tragic loss in the escalating confrontation.
"Speaking during a Pentagon briefing following U.S. strikes on Iranian targets, Pete Hegseth made clear that the military action authorized by President Donald Trump was not the beginning of hostilities, but rather a response to years of aggression and escalating danger.
"The War Secretary laid out what he described as mounting intelligence showing Iran had continued advancing elements of its nuclear capabilities, including infrastructure buried deep beneath mountainous terrain. Pete Hegseth stressed that such secretive construction is inconsistent with peaceful nuclear energy.
“ 'Peaceful nuclear programs are not hidden under mountains,” Donald Trump’s War Secretary said, pointing to hardened underground facilities that U.S. officials believe were designed to shield critical components from airstrikes." . . .
