In its strike on Iran, Vance says the US proved that it “could fly a bunker buster bomb from Missouri to Iran completely undetected without landing once on the ground, and [that it] can destroy whatever nuclear capacity [Iran] builds up.
“I think that lesson is what’s going to teach them not to rebuild their nuclear capacity,” he says.
Asked about regime change in Iran, Vance reiterates that while the US would welcome such an effort by the Iranian people, it is not a goal of the US military.
