US Secretary of War Pete Hegseth flipped out and refused to give a clear answer when asked if US-Israel joint attack on Iran is "spiralling" into a longer war. "Did you not hear my remarks?" Hegseth said. "We're...executing very deliberately to ensure outcomes that I laid out are accomplished. But we'd never...lay out how long that may take," he added.
