President Donald Trump reacted to Iran’s retaliatory strike against the U.S. after American B-2 bombers obliterated Iranian nuclear facilities over the weekend.
Iran launched more than a dozen missiles toward U.S. military bases in Qatar — but failed to do any significant damage and harmed no Americans.
Trump’s full message below:
Iran has officially responded to our Obliteration of their Nuclear Facilities with a very weak response, which we expected, and have very effectively countered. There have been 14 missiles fired — 13 were knocked down, and 1 was “set free,” because it was headed in a nonthreatening direction. I am pleased to report that NO Americans were harmed, and hardly any damage was done. Most importantly, they’ve gotten it all out of their “system,” and there will, hopefully, be no further HATE. I want to thank Iran for giving us early notice, which made it possible for no lives to be lost, and nobody to be injured. Perhaps Iran can now proceed to Peace and Harmony in the Region, and I will enthusiastically encourage Israel to do the same. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

In a follow-up post, Trump said now is the time for peace: “CONGRATULATIONS WORLD, IT’S TIME FOR PEACE!” Trump posted on TRUTH.
The White House confirmed that Trump has no intention to return fire
“As long as it stands, Trump has no intention of retaliating for the ‘failed retaliation,'” the source said, suggesting that tensions in the Middle East will soon de-escalate following Saturday’s US strike on three Iranian nuclear facilities.
