Trump Says US Would Strike Iran Despite Expected Gulf Retaliation
(MENAFN) US President Donald Trump stated Monday that Washington would have proceeded with its military campaign against Iran even if it had anticipated Iranian retaliation targeting Gulf countries, according to reports.
"It's not a question of like, 'Gee, should you have known?' And if we did know, big deal. I mean, we have to do what we have to do," Trump said during a White House event.
Acknowledging that several Gulf nations have come under Iranian attacks, he noted, "Saudi Arabia, all of a sudden, Kuwait. Kuwait is getting hit. Bahrain is getting…All these countries are getting hit," and added that "there was no expert that would say that was going to happen."
Trump further argued that the US offensive had significantly weakened Iran’s military, stating, "We hit them so hard, like nobody's ever been hit," and claiming that Washington had destroyed "most of their missiles" and "extinguished most of their drones."
