US defense head is eager to frame operation as a success – and slam journalists for not portraying it in a positive light
Pete Hegseth on Friday again claimed the US military campaign against Iran has been an unprecedented success, using a Pentagon press conference to accuse journalists of downplaying Washington’s supposed gains on the battlefield.
Speaking alongside the chair of the joint chiefs of staff, the US defense secretary claimed Iran had been left without a functioning air force, navy or missile defense network after 13 days of strikes, and said the combined US-Israeli air campaign had hit more than 15,000 targets since the war began.
“The United States is decimating the radical Iranian regime’s military in a way the world has never seen before,” Hegseth told reporters.
Has Iran even said thank you?
Careful guys, Pete might be on here to downvote.
“Kiff come hold up the flag, and wavy it a little for God’s sake”
“That young man fills me with hope. Plus some other emotions which are weird and deeply confusing.”
Singling out CNN by name, Hegseth said: “The sooner David Ellison takes over that network, the better.”
This fuckin guy just comes right out and says it…

(my bold)
Ellison and his father are close associates of Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu.[6] His father’s first wife has described Larry as “an ardent Zionist” and he hosted the prime minister on his Hawaiian island in 2021.
People don’t like murder. Suck it up and deal with it, Pete.
Fucking piece of shit, limp dicked, drunk Nazi traitor upset we don’t support his fucking war crimes for Jesus?
I liked it better when I didn’t know the names of various American ministers
I live here and wish I could forget.
This dude was literally a talking head on Fox News.
There’s no way there isn’t hours of footage of him being negative about literally everything Obama and Biden did.
Unfair comparison, Zapp Brannigan is at least charming in his assholeness. Kegseth sets off my fight or fight instincts.
Oh my god.
I can’t unsee this now.
A success at …what? No goal was ever provided. He caused a lot of damage, killed a lot of people. Iranian conservative religious government (as well as USA’s) is still in power. Iranian nuclear capability (so far, none) hasn’t changed.
And a lot of us are still demanding release of ALL unredacted Trump-Epstein Files.
Success at distracting from the Epstein files
Only corp-owned media. I still see a lot of people talking about the Epstein files and how this war is meant to distract from them.
“US Defence head…”
But they changed it to the Department of War, so that should read “US War head…”There should be a Department of dictatorship.
Then we would have a Dick head.
You show me a dictatorship and I’ll show you a boat filled with penis-shaped potatoes.
Not officially
Fuck you, Pete. Fuck you, you piece of shit. Fuck you, you child-murderer.
You are the absolute, most bottom, horrible, disgusting, sub-human, terrible monster.
Hell is too good for you.

said the ignoramus.
I hate how this administration has ruined certain phrases/sayings/colloquialisms for me. Like “has never seen before”, “unprecendented”, “like no one’s ever seen”, “quid pro quo”, “rule of law”, “thank you for your attention to this matter”, etc.
What I love is now that they know it bothers him EVERY shot is him looking ridiculous.
This guy is worse than a fucking Family Guy parody of an over the top limp dick douchebag.
