I told you this had to happen anyway.

The president made a decision, and the decision he made was that Iran was not going to be allowed to hide behind its ballistic missile program.

that Iran was not going to be allowed to hide behind its ability to conduct these attacks.

That decision had been made.

The president made a decision to systematically destroy this terroristic capability that they had, and we carried that out.

I was very clear in that answer.

This was a question of timing, of why this had to happen as a joint operation, not the question of the intent.

Once the president made a decision that negotiations were not going to work, that they were playing us on the negotiations, and

that this was a threat that was untenable, the decision was made to strike them.

That's what I said yesterday, and you guys need to play it.

If you're going to play these statements, you need to play the whole statement, not clip it to reach a narrative that you want to do, all right?

Well, that's the plan we're trying to carry out.

The problem is, or the challenge we are facing, is airspace closures.

If a country closes their airport, for example, in some cases, the airports have been hit.

So the airport in Kuwait was hit.

So if an airport's been attacked or the airspace is closed, then we can have the planes lined up to go, but we can't get them to land because we don't have the permissions to land there.

So that's the challenge.

It's going to take a little time because we don't control the airspace closures.

That said, there may be more people out there that need help.

We need to know who you are.
