On Sunday, The Epoch Times posted an article detailing what we need to know about President Trump’s bombing of the Iranian nuclear facilities.
The article lists five things:
Iran’s Key Nuclear Sites ‘Obliterated’
Trump said during an address to the nation that U.S. strikes had “completely and totally obliterated” three key Iranian nuclear facilities, including Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan (also spelled Esfahan).
…Trump Threatens ‘Far Greater’ Attacks If No Peace
Trump threatened Iran with “far greater” attacks if the regime refused to make peace.
…US Worked With Israel
Trump confirmed the United States worked with Israel, taking a moment in his address to the nation to thank Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
…Iran Atomic Agency Vows to Continue Program
The Iranian Atomic Energy Organization said it will continue with its development of its “national industry,” an apparent reference to its nuclear development.
…Some Lawmakers Want Congressional Authorization
While some lawmakers have been supportive of Trump’s authorizing the strikes, others want congressional authorization before any additional actions are undertaken.
The lawmakers who insist that President Trump needs congressional authorization need to look at some of America’s recent history.
Double standard, anyone?
No one wants another endless Middle Eastern war, but I suspect President Trump does not have the patience for an endless war. I expect the Iranian situation–nuclear reactor sites, Strait of Hormuz, etc., to be resolved quickly.
