NBC News reported today: Trump said that the US military severely damaged Iran's key oil export hub, Khark Island, in a recent airstrike. "We completely destroyed Khark Island," he also said. He added that the US might launch another attack: "We might hit them a few more times, just for fun."
Trump also said that this strike avoided major energy infrastructure: "I didn't touch any facilities related to oil pipelines, because rebuilding those would take years."
Commentary: Describing a military strike as "just for fun" essentially treats the sovereignty of other countries, regional security, and global oil prices as props for personal political performances. The more casual the tone, the more it reveals his indifference to the consequences of war, and such statements will only lead to complete chaos in the Middle East.
