War Secretary Pete Hegseth came out strong Wednesday by declaring “America is winning” in Operation Epic Fury and calling Iran “toast.”
Hegseth said more fighters and bombers are going to the Middle East daily and the U.S. and Israel have achieved “complete control” over Iranian airspace,” Fox News reported.
“America is winning decisively, devastatingly and without mercy,” Hegseth said. “Only the United States of America could lead this. Only us. But when you add the Israeli Defense Forces, a devastatingly capable force, the combination is sheer destruction for our radical Islamist Iranian adversaries.”
“They are toast, and they know it,” he continued. “The two most powerful air forces in the world will have complete control of Iranian skies. Uncontested airspace.”
Watch:
“More bombers and more fighters are arriving just today and now, with complete control of the skies, we will be using 500 pound, thousand pound and 2,000 pound. laser guided precision gravity bombs, of which we have a nearly unlimited stockpile,” the war secretary said.
