US Secretary of War Pete Heggest told reporters on Monday, November 18 that US President Donald Trump has the upper hand in whatever way he chooses regarding the Islamic Republic, and the War Department is ready to provide the necessary tools to implement his decision.
"Our forces are taking risks in the Strait of Hormuz or other areas in places that the American people will never know about, and they're doing it to protect our country and keep our people safe," Hagest said.
He added: "This is the same task that the president entrusted to me; peace through force."
The U.S. Secretary of War also said that the Islamic Republic is building an unprecedented "missile defense," and by following North Korea's strategy, it is trying to increase its capabilities to the point that no one can stop it from obtaining nuclear weapons.
Referring to operations "Midnight Hammer", "Absolute Determination" and "Epic Fury", the guest said that the achievements of these operations would change the face of the world for a generation.
