ðŸĶ—ðŸĶ—ðŸĶ—ðŸĶ—

Reporter: The president said we might blow up and completely obliterate all of their generating electric plants, oil wells, Kharg island, and possibly all desalination plants. Under international law, striking infrastructure is generally prohibited. Why is the president advocating potentially a war crime and how do you square that with the US aying it does not target civilians?

Leavitt: Their best move is to make a deal or else the united States armed forces has capabilities beyond their wildest imagination

Reporter: Including potential war crimes?

Leavitt: With respect to achieving the full objectives, the president is going to move forward…

Reporter: Which of those objectives would destroying a desalination plant most help?
Ask Bibi.
Reporter: The Pope said, "God does not listen to the prayer of those who wage war." Can you comment on that?

Leavitt: Our nation was a nation founded 250 years ago almost on Judeo-Christian values. And we have seen presidents, the leaders of the department of war, and our troops go to prayer during the most turbulent times in our nations history and I don't think there is anything wrong with our military leaders or with the president calling on the American people to pray for our service members overseas. If you talk to many service members, they appreciate the prayers and support from the commander-in-chief and his cabinet.
"Almost on Judeo-Christian values” is unintentionally right. There’s that, too. I am surprised Hegseth hasn’t ordered military uniform belt buckles emblazoned “Gott Mit Uns.”
Reporter: if Iran is cherry picking what tankers get to go through the strait, is that consistent with the president's message about wanting the strait to be fully open?

Leavitt: I would reject that they are cherry picking. As you know, these tankers moving through, the 10 previously announced and now 20, are a result of the direct and indirect talks taking lace between the United States and Iran. You wouldn't have seen those tankers if not for the presidents diplomacy engaging on this
So Trump is negotiating in the best interests of Pakistan and China? "Shut up and eat your gruel.” Basic negotiating tactic. Business people do it every day.
Leavitt: The United States is conducting more intense targeted strikes with devastating power. It is no surprise that we are seeing the remaining elements of the regime eager to come to the negotiating table while they still can. Despite all of the public posturing you hear from the regime and false reporting, talks are going well.
Which is why the war hasn’t ended, and we make even more outlandish threats every other day.

Pretty much what we did for the five years of the Paris Peace Accords. In 1973, North Vietnam got what they wanted.
