Trump: ‘We Now Have Complete And Total Control Of The Skies Over Iran’

President Trump issued a powerful statement regarding the situation in Iran after Israel has conducted numerous airstrikes targeting the Iranian regime’s military assets, stating that “we” now control the skies over Iran.

“We now have complete and total control of the skies over Iran. Iran had good sky trackers and other defensive equipment, and plenty of it, but it doesn’t compare to American made, conceived, and manufactured ‘stuff.’ Nobody does it better than the good ol’ USA,” Trump stated on Truth Social.

The use of the term “we” caught the eye of many, given questions over whether the United States will increase its involvement in the campaign to eliminate Iran’s nuclear capabilities. Trump has stepped up his rhetoric aimed at Iran in the last 24 hours, and followed up his statement with threats aimed at Iran’s leadership.

Trump has been a staunch ally of Israel during his time as president. He is reportedly considering entering the conflict more directly, and is convening his top national security aides in the White House Situation Room this afternoon as he works towards a decision.

The U.S. military has bombing capability that exceeds Israels, and may be needed to deliver a crushing blow to Iran’s underground nuclear facilities.

A poll released on Monday showed that Trump voters overwhelmingly back the United States taking action against Iran in support of Israel.
