Vice President JD Vance says the war with Iran will continue “for a little while longer” until the US and Israel can “neuter” the Islamic Republic.
“The president’s going to keep at it for a little while longer to ensure that once we leave, we don’t have to do this again for a very, very long time,” Vance told podcaster Benny Johnson.
“This country is threatening us in all these ways. They’re still trying to build a nuclear weapon. We need to neuter them for a very, very long time, and that’s the purpose.
Vance said the goal of the mission is to ensure that the US doesn’t have to go back into Iran in a “year down the road.”
“We’re taking care of business. We’re going to be out of there soon, and gas prices are going to come back down,” he concluded in an interview released Friday.
The US has already accomplished “the gross majority” if not all of the military objectives against the hardline regime, Vance said.
Higher gas prices directly resulting from the war effort — the Strait of Hormuz is the world’s most critical oil chokepoint which Tehran has a stranglehold on — are a “very, very temporary reaction to what is going to ultimately be a short term conflict,” according to the vice president.
