"Moments ago, at my direction, the United States Central Command executed one of the most powerful bombing raids in the History of the Middle East, and totally obliterated every MILITARY target in Iran's crown jewel, Kharg Island."
"Our Weapons are the most powerful and sophisticated that the World has ever known but, for reasons of decency, I have chosen NOT to wipe out the Oil Infrastructure on the Island."
"However, should Iran, or anyone else, do anything to interfere with the Free and Safe Passage of Ships through the Strait of Hormuz, I will immediately reconsider this decision. Iran has NO ability to defend anything that we want to attack."
The United States executed a significant military operation against Kharg Island, a strategically important Iranian oil facility. Military targets on the island were completely destroyed in what was described as one of the most powerful bombing raids in Middle Eastern history. The operation deliberately avoided damaging oil infrastructure, framed as an act of restraint despite possessing the capability to do so. The action included a warning that any Iranian interference with shipping through the Strait of Hormuz would result in reconsideration of this restraint, with assertions that Iran lacks defensive capabilities against US military action.
