President Trump Addresses 9/11 Anniversary, Links Iran to Nuclear Threat
On the 25th anniversary of the September 11 attacks, President Trump delivered remarks at the Pentagon in Arlington, Virginia, commemorating the 184 lives lost when American Airlines Flight 77 struck the building. During his speech, President Trump recounted stories of some of the victims, including a pregnant woman, a family of four, and three sixth-graders. He and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth utilized their addresses to advocate for the ongoing conflict with Iran, asserting its necessity to prevent Tehran from acquiring nuclear weapons. President Trump emphasized the commitment to ensuring that Iran, which he described as the 'world's number one sponsor of terror,' will 'never ever have a nuclear weapon.' This statement was made amidst broader commemorations across the U.S., including ceremonies at Ground Zero in New York City and Shanksville, Pennsylvania, where other hijacked planes crashed.
