Echoing ex-Israeli PM Naftali Bennett’s blunt advice – ‘Don’t mess with President Trump’ – a roster of U.S. security heavyweights has celebrated ‘Operation Epic Fury’ as a seismic strike on Iran. The White House’s Sunday compilation of statements reveals broad consensus on its role in destabilizing Tehran’s regime and fortifying allies.
Keith Kellogg, retired lieutenant general, called the massive effort superbly handled under Trump’s watch. Jack Keane praised its strategic depth and foresight.
Roger Zakheim from the Reagan Institute said Iran’s strikes upended balances, securing America like no action in 47 years. Yorktown’s Seth Cropsey targeted the regime’s religious core, weapons, and ops center, charting its strategic collapse.
FDD’s Mark Dubowitz said only Trump could erase Khamenei’s dangers. Advisor Mideast Maliuki named him Iran’s true ally, with unmatched bravery.
WSJ’s board saw the joint assault as vital prevention versus terror’s fountainhead, risks offset by peace potential.
Mike Pompeo framed it as Western salvation. Bennett predicted regional thanks for today’s safer world. Hugh Hewitt lauded the steady presidential address.
These testimonials frame Epic Fury as more than military might – a resolute signal reshaping threats, with Iran’s weakened state as proof of American strength renewed.
