Trump went on to say that the US could “bomb the hell out of” Iran and destroy their military, but the one thing they cannot guarantee is that the Strait of Hormuz is free of mines that could put billion-dollar ships at risk. He also expressed disappointment with Nato for not joining the US-Israeli war on Iran, saying it’s “a mark on Nato that will never disappear, never disappear in my mind.” Support stories that matter.
