Donald Trump believes if he were president that Iran would have never unleashed missile attacks on Israel and that the globe would not be ‘brink of World War III.’
The ex-president took to his Truth Social app Tuesday to decry the attack on Israel as it was being hit with a hellfire of roughly 180 Iranian missiles.
The Jewish Nation’s conflict with the Lebanon-based Iranian-backed terrorist group Hezbollah has become increasingly dangerous over the past weeks as the two have exchanged attacks. Escalating the fight, Iranian rockets ignited the night sky and slammed into buildings as air sirens blared across the country just hours after the White House warned an attack was ‘imminent’.
‘Look at the missiles flying right now in the Middle East, look at what’s happening with Russia/Ukraine, look at Inflation destroying the World,’ Trump’s post began.
‘None of this happened while I was president!’ ‘When I was President, Iran was in total check,’ Trump elaborated further in an official campaign statement. ‘They were starved for cash, fully contained, and desperate to make a deal. Kamala flooded them with American cash and, ever since, they’ve been exporting terror all over, and unraveling the Middle East.’
It continued: ‘Under ‘President Trump,’ we had no war in the Middle East, no war in Europe, and harmony in Asia, no inflation, no Afghanistan catastrophe.’
‘Now, war or the threat of war, is raging everywhere, and the two incompetents running this country are leading us to the brink of World War III.’
Footage shows Israel’s Iron Dome defense system, and other anti-missile defensive capabilities, shooting down some of the incoming missiles and sending burning fragments to the ground as Americans were urged to take cover in bomb shelters.
The missiles rained down on Tel Aviv in two major salvos about 15 minutes apart.
Biden released a statement to deter Iran from further action. ‘The United States is prepared to help Israel defend against these attacks, and protect American personnel in the region,’ the president said.
A White House spokesman said Biden ‘directed the U.S. military to aid Israel’s defense against Iranian attacks and shoot down missiles targeting Israel.’
National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan said during a press briefing that Iran’s attack was ‘defeated’ and unsuccessful, and that Israel along with U.S. forces were able to dampen the results of the strike.
Sullivan called it a ‘significant escalation’ by Iran and that the White House will look at what ‘the appropriate next steps are.’
He also revealed that U.S. ships helped quash the Iranian barrage.
‘Iran launched nearly 200 ballistic missiles towards targets in Israel you know, the united States military coordinated closely with the Israeli defense forces to help defend Israel against this attack.’
‘U.S. naval destroyers joined Israeli the air defense units in firing interceptors to shoot down inbound missiles,’ he added.
Maj. General Pat Ryder later confirmed to reporters it was the USS Cole and USS Bulkeley, both Arleigh-Burke class destroyers, which shot a dozen anti-missile interceptors.
