President Trump's Kharg Island video

KLZ UPDATE Sept 1@ 0630MST— Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian said Tuesday that Tehran would immediately reciprocate if the United States returns to its commitments under the interim agreement signed in June.
The statement came after the renewed exchange of fire between U.S. and Iranian forces, including American strikes on Larak Island and Iranian missile attacks targeting U.S. bases in Jordan. President Donald Trump has vowed a response but said the latest fighting does not necessarily signal a return to full-scale war. Meanwhile, renewed attacks on oil tankers in the Strait of Hormuz have added to concerns over global energy supplies.
(Worthy News) – Following attempted missile attacks from Iran targeting a U.S. military base in Jordan, President Donald Trump vowed to retaliate.
The Islamic Republic launched several missiles targeting an American base in Jordan overnight after the U.S. reportedly targeted rocket launchers along the Strait of Hormuz. It has been reported that most of the missiles were intercepted.
In response, the president told Fox News Monday that Iran would be “hit hard” for the attack.
In a Truth Social post, Trump declared, “Iran is officially a failed nation. It is dead.”
In a separate post, the president posted what appears to be an AI-generated video showing Iran’s Kharg Island “being blown to smithereens” following Iran’s latest round of attacks.
The president added that Iran is dealing with 300% inflation and is unable to pay its military and police.
Videos circulating on social media claiming to be taken inside Iran show miles-long lines for gas, as the U.S. continues to enforce a full naval blockade on Iranian ports. The Trump administration claims the blockade is costing the Islamic Republic between $400 million and $500 million in economic losses a day, coupled with intense sanctions meant to squeeze the country financially.
The latest rounds come on the same day as the Pentagon announced a seven-year agreement with General Dynamics and Lockheed Martin to “accelerate” missile production.
The agreement would “triple” the Patriot Advanced Capability-3 Missile Segment Enhancement and “quadruple” the Terminal High Altitude Area Defense programs.

The overnight attacks come days after U.S. Central Command announced that U.S. forces had “successfully cleared sea mines” in the Strait of Hormuz, within the international shipping lanes that “were laid months ago by Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.”
The Pentagon says it has spent nearly $40 billion on military operations in Iran, though many independent analyses estimate the true amount is at least double.
