It’s simple: if Iran shoots at U.S. ships, we will destroy (and sink) their oil tankers. All they have to do is not shoot at @USNavy. Iran’s oil tanker fleet is defenseless — Iran has no navy or air force. Our planes, ships & subs can strike them all, in @CENTCOM & @USPACOM.
Pete Hegseth states that if Iran fires on U.S. ships, the U.S. will retaliate by destroying Iran's oil tankers. He notes Iran's lack of naval and air power makes its fleet vulnerable to U.S. strikes.
