US Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth asserted that the American military is ready to restart combat against Iran if no ceasefire deal is reached during a Pentagon press briefing on Thursday.

“We’d prefer to do it the nice way through a deal led by our vice president and negotiating team,” Hegseth said, “or we can do it the hard way. We urge this new regime to choose wisely.”

"You, Iran, can choose a prosperous future, a golden bridge, and we hope that you do for the people of Iran," he said.

"But if Iran chooses poorly, then they will have a blockade and bombs dropping on infrastructure, power, and energy."

"While you are digging out bombed-out and devastated facilities, we are only getting stronger," Hegeth said.

Iran threatens to sink American ships in Strait of Hormuz, claims US ground invasion would be ‘great’

Chris Bradford / NEW YORK POST  

Iran has threatened to sink American ships policing the Strait of Hormuz amid the blockade – and wildly claimed that a US ground invasion would be “great” as it would allow the regime to make billions of dollars snatching hostages.

Mohsen Rezaee, the ex-commander in chief of the Iranian Revolutionary Guards, mocked President Trump on state TV Wednesday — claiming he wants to be the “police” of the waterway before boasting Tehran’s missiles can take out American vessels, reported by Agence France-Presse.

“Is this really your job? Is this the job of a powerful army like the US?” the regime stooge, dressed in military uniform, threatened Trump.

“These ships of yours will be sunk by our first missiles and have created a great danger for the US military. They can definitely be exposed to our missiles and we can destroy them.”

Rezaee, a senior adviser to the Supreme Leader, challenged claims that Iran’s navy has been “completely obliterated,” posing the question, “Why does the United States not dare to cross the Strait of Hormuz?”
