“Our objective was the destruction of Iran’s nuclear enrichment capacity and a stop to the nuclear threat posed by the world’s number one state sponsor of terror,” Trump said in remarks from the Cross Hall at the White House. “Tonight, I can report to the world that the strikes were a spectacular military success.”
The president had announced hours earlier on Truth Social that the U.S. had bombed three Iranian nuclear facilities: Fordow, Natanz, and Esfahan. In his remarks on Saturday night, Trump said those facilities “have been completely and totally obliterated.”
Trump, who was joined by Vice President Vance, Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth for his remarks, warned that Saturday’s strikes could be the first in a wave of actions against Iran, which has been locked in conflict with Israel for nearly two weeks.

Hey, why not another Mideast quagmire? Right, let's go, boyos.
To be fair, a Southeast Asia quagmire is SO 1970s!
