Operation Midnight Hammer: Pete Hegseth has hailed President Trump’s recent strikes on Iran’s nuclear program as an “incredible and overwhelming success,” claiming unmatched devastation to Tehran’s nuclear capabilities.
He emphasized U.S. restraint—yet vowed “far greater force” in response to any Iranian retaliation, echoing Trump’s threats.
Hegseth also criticized past presidents for failing to deliver such a crippling blow.
Critics warn this rhetoric is reckless and risks escalation, undermining diplomatic channels and pushing the region closer to uncontrolled conflict.
As heated statements proliferate, analysts caution that brinkmanship over nuclear arsenals could trigger unintended global consequences.
