Certainly, with things like interceptors—we want to make sure our guys have as many as possible as well... Ultimately, the President wants to see peace—he believes that the killings should stop."

They have great capabilities, and we appreciate their contribution to ensuring Iran never gets a nuclear weapon. I was there visiting our troops—I had a chance to talk to the Prime Minister. Of course, the nature of our conversation is not something I would talk about."

We're prepared to contribute in any way necessary. We've done HISTORIC DEVASTATION to their military and military capabilities—but if they're not willing to give it up and the President asks us to go even further—WE'RE PREPARED."
As always, it was an honor to visit our warfighters in @CENTCOM today. The best of our country, on a historic mission. Godspeed.

.@SECWAR spoke on his recent trip to @CENTCOM: "I got to see some of our warfighters—they’re PREPARING AND READY to ensure that Iran never has a nuclear weapon. They've been vigilant for many months. They’re prepared, and they’re dialed in. You look into their eyes, and they’re ready to go. They understand what their assignment is. They have confidence in each other, and they should because they’re the most well-trained troops on Planet Earth. But they also have confidence in the systems that they’ve been provided."
As always, it was an honor to visit our warfighters in @CENTCOM today. The best of our country, on a historic mission. Godspeed.
