President Donald Trump announced that the U.S. military struck three nuclear sites in Iran.
“Tonight, I can report to the world that the strikes were a spectacular military success. Iran’s nuclear enrichment facilities have been completely and totally obliterated. Iran, the bully of the Middle East, must now make peace. If they do not, future attacks would be far greater and a lot easier,” President Trump said from the White House in a Saturday night address.
“This cannot continue,” Trump added. “There will be either peace or there will be tragedy for Iran, far greater than we have witnessed over the last eight days. Remember, there are many targets left. Tonight’s was the most difficult of them all by far, and perhaps the most lethal. But if peace does not come quickly, we will go after those other targets with precision, speed, and skill.”
KTTH hosts responded to air strikes with strong support
Afternoon host Jason Rantz noted that, “You can’t negotiate with Iran — the last two decades have proven that. This was necessary.” He also said that “60 days means 60 days,” a reference to a deadline for Iran to agree to end its plans to develop nuclear weapons.

Midday host Guy Benson, also a Fox News contributor, called the strikes the “correct decision.” But he warns of danger ahead.
“Iran has a ballistic weapons arsenal (though Israel has largely defanged it) and terrorist cells. Two causes for trepidation— and also two reasons why preventing Iran from getting nukes is absolutely the right call,” Benson said.
Evening host Mark Levin, meanwhile, said that “Americans can ‘go to bed peacefully tonight’ because of President Trump.

Extraordinary egg on the face tonight of the Lindbergh-esque isolationists on the “Right” cosplaying as “MAGA” and imputing to “America First” views that (1) are not actually America First and (2) are not held by Trump himself.
Touch some grass and shut the hell up for a while.
