General Jack Keane: Military Operations Expected to Resume in 10 to 14 Days, Insights from Larry Kudlow

FOX Business host Larry Kudlow discusses President Donald Trump vowing a response after saying Iran shot down a U.S. Apache helicopter over the Strait of Hormuz on ‘Kudlow.’
Is now the time for one last kinetic military bombing assault on the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps regime in Iran? While President Trump has shown a preference for diplomacy, recent events may shift his stance. The president is now attributing the downing of a U.S. Apache helicopter over the Strait of Hormuz to Iran, an incident that occurred Monday night.
In a post on Truth Social, Trump stated, “I have just been informed by our Great Military that last night the Iranians shot down one of our highly sophisticated Apache Helicopters while patrolling over the Strait of Hormuz.” He reassured the public, saying, “There were two pilots involved, both are safe and uninjured. Nevertheless, the United States must, of necessity, respond to this attack.”
Remarkably, the central command’s rescue mission for the helicopter pilots was a success, utilizing an Unmanned Surface Vessel sea drone in a groundbreaking operation. Our military continues to demonstrate its capabilities. However, Iran has repeatedly violated ceasefires, targeting American forces, Gulf states, and Israel. Notably, Israel retaliated by striking Kharg Island, raising questions about the ongoing conflict.
Sen. Dave McCormick, R-Pa., says the Trump administration should prioritize nuclear enrichment and the opening of the Strait of Hormuz in any deal with Iran on ‘Kudlow.’
While I support the president’s courageous stance on Iranian intervention, one must ponder how long his patience for diplomacy will last. Furthermore, can any agreement with Iran truly be trusted? This regime, characterized by radical ideologies, has consistently disregarded the civilized world’s standards of right and wrong. Their history of breaking deals is deeply rooted in their theocratic beliefs and their animosity towards America and Israel.
So, what actions will President Trump take in response to this Iranian aggression? General Jack Keane suggested last night that the preferred course of action after weeks of frustration may be to resume military operations. He stated, “Clearly the preferred option after eight weeks of frustration must be to return to military operations 10 days, 14 days, let’s finish this, let’s put them in the most vulnerable position they have ever been in.”
This military option is certainly on the table for President Trump. General Keane, a highly respected figure and recipient of the Presidential Medal of Freedom, emphasized the need for decisive action: “At the end of the day, I truly believe what is going to likely come down to is having to go after them and to kill as many of them as we possibly can, capture some if we can, but take all the instruments of tyranny away from them once and for all. It is likely the solution that has to come at some point.”
President Trump is undoubtedly weighing these considerations. This situation is not just about addressing a brutal dictatorship in the Middle East; it also concerns the broader ideals of freedom and liberty for other nations in the region, including our steadfast ally, Israel. These universal values are worth fighting for.
