At a White House meeting with Lebanese President Aoun, Trump said the U.S.
military is “weakening” Iran’s military capability “to an unprecedented degree”
and acknowledged Iran “found a gap” in Jordan, saying if “other operators” had
been present the incident would not have occurred; he did not specify who he
meant. The U.S. military said last week two U.S. service members were killed and
four were wounded and evacuated for treatment after Iranian missile and drone
strikes on Jordan.
