'I Terminated Iran's Nuclear Program With B-2 Bombers': Donald J. Trump's Jerusalem Speech

Former US President Donald J. Trump delivered a speech at the Israeli Knesset on October 13, 2025, announcing a historic peace agreement that concluded the two-year conflict with Hamas. Trump stated that the US military, in an operation codenamed "Midnight Hammer" in June 2025, had "obliterated" Iran's key nuclear facilities, stating that 14 bombs were dropped by B-2 bombers on Iranian nuclear sites. This declaration coincided with the release of 20 Israeli hostages, held captive for two years. Trump asserted that the agreement ensures Gaza's demilitarization and Hamas's disarmament, aiming to end threats to Israel's security. He praised Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, envoy Steve Witkoff, and Jared Kushner for their roles in achieving the breakthrough. Trump also addressed Netanyahu's status, called for his pardon, and criticized previous US administrations for their perceived "hatred toward Israel," urging regional nations to join the Abraham Accords for peace and prosperity in the Middle East.
