Trump supports and threatens Iran over military strikes

President Donald Trump called recent U.S. and Israeli military strikes against Iran 'right' and 'necessary.' He also threatened Iran with a 'force that has never been seen before' if the strikes continue, while claiming he had agreed to talk to Iran amid the conflict.

Trump's comments drew support from a longtime critic who credited him with restoring U.S. credibility, and from his political allies who defended the strikes. Meanwhile, some Democrats called the action a 'war of choice,' and officials from the UAE and Qatar reportedly urged allies to pressure Trump to limit the strikes. Trump officials declined invitations to appear on Sunday news shows to discuss the situation.
