President Trump Compares Iran-Israel Conflict to Schoolyard Fight
Washington D.C.: U.S. President Donald Trump recently offered a lighthearted yet pointed response to the escalating tensions between Iran and Israel. He drew a parallel between the two nations’ conflict and two children arguing in a schoolyard. Trump stated, “Israel and Iran aren’t fighting each other now. They’ve already fought. Just like two kids in school, you can’t stop them. Let them fight for two or three minutes, and then it’s easy to stop them.”
NATO Secretary General Expresses Agreement
NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte also chuckled in agreement with Trump’s statement, remarking, “And then Daddy sometimes has to use a firm voice.” Trump responded in kind, saying, “Sometimes you have to use b language, and you have to say certain words.”
Clarification on ‘Strong Language’
This statement came amidst controversy following a sharp comment Trump made the previous day regarding ceasefire violations by Iran and Israel. He used reportedly offensive language in his criticism. Trump subsequently clarified that sometimes b language is necessary to control the situation.
Warning to Iran Regarding Nuclear Program
President Trump issued a stern warning to Iran regarding its nuclear program. He emphasized that the United States is confident Iran will not restart uranium enrichment. Trump stated, “Iran isn’t making a nuclear bomb. We don’t think they had enough time to remove the materials from the sites. I believe that was a serious setback for them.”
Denial of ‘Fake News’ Reports
President Trump dismissed media reports claiming Iran had removed 400 kilograms of uranium from its nuclear facilities before a potential U.S. attack as “fake news.” He asserted that these reports were an attempt to undermine the President. Trump also stated that the White House takes such rumors seriously and has refuted them.
