The fact that Hegseth is threatening war with Iran is not surprising, given the current administration’s track record on foreign policy, but it’s still alarming to hear it stated so bluntly.
As someone who has family in the military, the prospect of war with Iran is terrifying, I hope our leaders are considering the human cost of such a conflict.
As a veteran, I can attest to the fact that war is not something to be taken lightly, and Hegseth’s cavalier attitude towards it is disturbing, I hope he understands the gravity of his words.
The video on YouTube must have been edited to remove some context, because Hegseth’s statement seems to come out of nowhere, I’d like to see the full unedited version.
The timing of Hegseth’s statement is interesting, coming as it does amidst other geopolitical tensions, I wonder if there’s a larger strategy at play here that we’re not seeing.
It’s surprising that Hegseth would make such a bold statement without considering the potential backlash, does he really think the American public is ready for another war in the Middle East?
Hegseth’s statement seems to be a classic case of saber-rattling, but it’s not clear what the end goal is, is it to intimidate Iran or to prepare the American public for war?
The idea of choosing a time and place for war is chilling, it sounds like a predetermined plan rather than a last resort, I hope there are cooler heads in the administration to counterbalance this kind of thinking.
The threat of war with Iran is a serious concern, and Hegseth’s statement about choosing the time and place is unsettling, I wonder what kind of diplomatic efforts are being made to avoid conflict.
I’d like to know more about the potential consequences of war with Iran, not just for the US, but for the region as a whole, it’s a complex situation that requires careful consideration.
I’m not sure what’s more disturbing, the fact that Hegseth is threatening war or the fact that he thinks he can choose the time and place, it’s a stark reminder of the power dynamics at play.
Hegseth’s statement is a clear example of the kind of rhetoric that escalates tensions and makes diplomacy more difficult, it’s not helpful in finding a peaceful resolution.

I’m trying to understand what Hegseth means by ‘time and place’, is he talking about a specific strategic advantage or just trying to sound tough?
Maybe he’s trying to create a sense of inevitability around the conflict, to make it seem like it’s only a matter of when, not if.
