The conflict in West Asia has escalated with United States forces launching massive military strikes on several strategic cities and ports across Iran.
Transcript
00:00All right, let me now tell you what has been happening with regard to the West Asia crisis.
00:05There's been severe bombardment when it comes to the United States of America toward Iran.
00:10And this is at a time when one believed that possibly the conflict will end in the days to come
00:16with the kind of discussions that were happening.
00:19Pakistan was becoming a mediator.
00:21In turn, what we have is an escalated conflict in the region.
00:24In fact, the latest that I can tell you is U.S. forces have launched strikes on several cities across
00:29Iran.
00:30Iran-Shehre Airport, Shabahar Port, Bandar Abbas, Surik Port, Konark, Abu Musa Island and Jask.
00:37The Iranian military shared footage from Bandar Abbas Port near the Strait of Hormuz after the American strikes.
00:43Visuals show the port engulfed in flames with huge clouds of smoke billowing into the sky.
00:47President Donald Trump said that deal with Iran is over, but added that Iran badly wants a deal.
00:53I quote him, after the U.S. strikes.
00:56However, he's expressing doubts over whether Iran would honor any future agreement.
01:00Trump also lashed out at the Iranian regime calling Iranians scum, cancer, evil, sick and crazy.
01:24So we don't like them.
01:25I don't like them.
01:27And they're evil people.
01:29And it's the denuclearization of Iran.
01:32And we're going to denuke it.
01:34We're not going to let them because they're crazy.
01:36And they can't have a nuclear weapon.
01:39And they go around killing people.
01:41They've killed thousands and thousands of our soldiers.
01:43These are evil, sick people.
01:45And we have to rid their cancer.
01:47Their cancer.
01:48And you know what you do?
01:49You've got to cut out cancer early.
01:51Man, that's the way I feel.
01:53But we've already won militarily.
01:55They have very little left.
01:58And they want to make a deal so badly.
01:59They called a little while ago.
02:01They want to make a deal so badly.
02:03I just don't know if they're worthy of making a deal.
02:05I don't know if they're going to honor the deal.
02:07That's the problem.
02:08If they want to make a deal, why do you think they attacked commercial vessels?
02:15Because they started crazy, to be honest with you.
02:18They started crazy.
02:19They're a little bit out of control.
02:21But they want to make a deal badly.
02:25They are behaving very badly, as they have for 47 years.
02:30And, you know, we hit them hard last night after they launched.
02:34They launched a couple of...
02:35You don't have to know about this.
02:36You've got stuff on your mind.
02:37But they launched a couple of drones and one rocket, one missile, and chips.
02:46Because they were in the strait, which they have every right to be.
02:50And so we hit them very hard last night.
02:52Very, very hard.
02:52Probably hit them hard again tonight.
02:54I'll give them a little warning.
02:55We're going to hit them hard tonight.
02:57But we'll see how it all works out.
02:59No, I'm not happy with them.
03:00The president has said to them very simply,
03:03the Strait of Hormuz is going to be open.
03:05That means oil and gas is going to flow to the American people.
03:08That's why we see gas prices starting to come down.
03:12That's why we see the oil prices so low,
03:15is because the president said that crucial artery,
03:18through which we ship a lot of the world's energy,
03:21that artery has got to remain open.
03:23And that is what the Iranians have to know.
03:25If they try to close it down,
03:27there's going to be a response for the American military.
03:30It's that simple.
03:31That's the deal.
03:32They can either follow it or they can have exactly what happened to them last night.
03:37It's just going to keep on happening until they open up that lane and stop shooting at ships.
03:42It's simple.
03:43Let me help you understand where the bombardments have happened in the American strikes in Iran
03:48and how the Iranian regime will possibly respond to this.
03:51So let's bring out the illustration here.
03:53This is to help you understand, of course, where the United States of America is,
03:56but the basis that it has around this area.
04:00Now, this is the Iran-Sheher port toward the south.
04:03This is Pakistan, Afghanistan on the border on this side.
04:07Then there is Iraq, Syria on that side of the border.
04:11And, of course, United Arab Emirates toward the downside here, towards the south.
04:16Shabahar port, as you can see, borders with Pakistan and towards, this is Afghanistan as well.
04:21Bandar Abbas is where, again, the bombardments that have happened.
04:25All of these are very crucial strategic areas, strategic political areas for Iran
04:31because these are in the Syriq port as well.
04:33As you can see, this is where, with the waterways that are coming in,
04:36these are strategic locations.
04:37And that is why it has specifically been bombarded in the American strikes.
04:41These four are the prime locations where the bombardments have taken place.
04:45And with the country that has American bases around it,
04:49it's not going to be easy for Iran to be able to thwart these bombardments.
04:53It's successfully done it.
04:54But this is where the Persian Gulf is, as we call it,
04:57and then toward this side of the border.
05:00So this is where American strikes have happened.
05:03Iranian regime, of course, threatening to hit back.
05:06We have...
