out of CONTEXT A compilation of quotations on a variety of issues by national, state and regional writers, well-known personalities, just plain everyday people and from various publications collected by the editors of THE ADVANCE. Quotes for our Times: Dave Marcus, columnist for Fox News Digital: Trump might have broken Iran, but he didn’t buy it. In the end, Trump did what he always does. He looked at a problem everyone said had no solution, like moving the U.S. Embassy to Jerusalem, or closing the border, and decided he would be the one who finally slammed the door on Iran’s nuclear ambitions. One week before Saturday’s attack, the United States Army celebrated its 250th birthday with a military parade in Washington, D.C. Critics called it pointless, or self-aggrandizement by Trump, when in fact, it was a display of America’s incomparable military might. On Saturday, Iran and its supreme leader learned that those lines of marching troops, those machines and flyovers were much, much more than simply a parade. Mike Pompeo, contributor at FOX News Channel. Previously, he served in the Trump administration as the sixth director of the Central Intelligence Agency and the 70th U.S. secretary of state: Trump's Iran strikes show world what 'America First' foreign policy looks like. The end of this story is not yet written, but one thing is certain: Saturday night's strikes were a triumph of decisive leadership that will go a long way toward making President Reagan’s dictum of 'peace through strength' a reality. America’s enemies must know that we want peace, but are fully prepared to take decisive military action should the situation require it. We’ve now made that plain – and America is safer today as a result. Matt Vespa, Senior Editor at Townhall.com: WH Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt torches CNN for peddling fake news intel report on Iran strikes. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt: 'This alleged 'assessment' is flat-out wrong and was classified as 'top secret' but was still leaked to CNN by an anonymous, low-level loser in the intelligence community. 'The leaking of this alleged assessment is a clear attempt to demean President Trump, and discredit the brave fighter pilots who conducted a perfectly executed mission to obliterate Iran’s nuclear program. 'Everyone knows what happens when you drop fourteen 30,000 pound bombs perfectly on their targets: total obliteration.' The media writ large is always wrong, and the intelligence community can be and has been wrong about numerous crises dating back to the Bay of Pigs. And yes, Tulsi Gabbard was wrong about Iran in March. Why are their nuclear facilities in the mountains? Dear Lord, people. Katie Pavlich, Editor of Townhall.com: Criminal leak investigation launched over Iran nuclear damage. The investigation comes after information was leaked to CNN claiming U.S. strikes on Iranian nuclear sites over the weekend set the program back mere weeks. 'This is what a leaker is telling you what the intelligence says, that's the game these people play. They read it and they go out and characterize it the way they want to characterize it, the way they want it characterized, and they're leakers, this is the game they play,' Secretary of State Marco Rubio added.
