Listen to Press Go Quiet as Rubio Reveals Real Reason for Iran Attack

Donald Trump clearly articulated the military objectives against Iran: destroying their missile capabilities and production capacity, annihilating their navy (claiming 10 ships already sunk), ensuring they never obtain nuclear weapons, and preventing them from arming, funding, and directing terrorist armies outside their borders. These actions are framed as necessary to stop Iran's regional aggression and global terror sponsorship.

Trump's direct statement: 'Our objectives are clear. First, we're destroying Iran's missile capabilities... Second, we're annihilating their navy... Third, we're ensuring that the world's number one sponsor of terror can never obtain a nuclear weapon. Finally, we're ensuring that the Iranian regime cannot continue to arm, fund, and direct terrorist armies outside of their borders.'

Secretary of State Marco Rubio explained the urgency of the intervention, citing Iran's production of over 100 missiles a month and thousands of one-way attack drones, even under sanctions. He highlighted Iran's attacks on airports, hotels, and embassies, emphasizing the unacceptable risk of an apocalyptic regime run by radical clerics obtaining nuclear capabilities, which would inflict severe damage on the US and its allies.

Rubio's statement: 'They are producing by some estimates over 100 of these missiles a month... Imagine a year from now or a year and a half from now the capabilities they would have to inflict damage on us. It's an unacceptable risk, especially in the hands of a regime that's run by radical clerics... who don't make geopolitical decisions. They make decisions on the basis of theology, their view of theology which is an apocalyptic one.'

Dave Rubin sharply criticizes Tucker Carlson and Megyn Kelly for their perceived opposition to the Trump administration's actions in Iran. He labels Carlson a 'liar and propagandist' for claiming the war is 'Israel's war' and not about US national security, citing Carlson's unsubstantiated claims about Mossad agents. Kelly is accused of seeking 'clicks' and baselessly attributing the war's instigation to figures like Mark Levin and Ben Shapiro, implying an antisemitic undertone by 'just naming Jews.'

Rubin states: 'Tucker has become the number one liar and chief in the country... literally everything he says is a lie.' (23:12) He later adds: 'She just names Jews. It's just Jews, right? Miriam Madson. They tricked Trump.' (29:02)

Steve Whit, Trump's envoy for Iranian negotiations, revealed that Iranian negotiators openly boasted about controlling 460 kg of 60% enriched uranium, enough for 11 nuclear bombs, as their starting negotiation stance. Rubin contrasts this with the Obama administration's policy, which he claims enabled Iran by doing 'absolutely nothing' when the Iranian people rose up and by shipping 'hundreds of millions of dollars' to the regime, which was then used for terror, despite Obama's assurances it would improve the Iranian economy.

Whit's statement: 'both the Iranian negotiators said to us directly... that they controlled 460 kg of 60% and they're aware that that could make 11 nuclear bombs.' (45:06) Obama's statement: 'Our best analysts expect the bulk of this revenue to go into spending that improves the economy and benefits the lives of the Iranian people.' (48:24)
