Trump: Last night we targeted the defense system that took two months to build

Machine translation:
Reporter: What happens after election day? What’s the next step after today?

Trump: Well, we’ll see. Look, I’m not looking to, you know, kill a lot of people, but if we have to, we will. But I don’t want to do that.

All the planes have been turned into small pieces, very tiny pieces, scattered across the runways of Iran’s airports. They have no more planes. They have no air defense.

Last night we destroyed some of them. It was just a small attack. It wasn’t a war. They built an air defense facility. It took about two months to build. We monitored the construction process. As soon as it was completed, we targeted it last night.

No, it wasn’t a big war. It wasn’t a big war. And you know, when you talk about war, this really isn’t war. We still... we still... I mean, we hit them hard at the beginning, but that was it.

They are very tough. I understand why the Middle East fears them. They are very tough, but we have eliminated their leadership.
...
Iran had nuclear weapons. Everything was ready for them. They were supposed to achieve it within two weeks.

They had the JCPOA with Barack Hussein Obama. That agreement was the pathway to nuclear weapons.
...
But this really isn’t war. We haven’t shot at anything. You know, war is like Russia and Ukraine. That’s a war. War is like World War II where you keep fighting and fighting and have no chance to stop the battle.

We have put them exactly in the position we want. We can finish them off, or we can deal with them and let thousands survive.
