Trump's Explosive New Iran War Claim: 'They Were Doing Drugs' at Nuclear Sites
Trump said the 2025 strikes also hit alleged drug factories, claiming Iran was doing drugs and that the bombing wiped out its nuclear threat.
- On Thursday, President Donald Trump claimed at a rally in Durant, Oklahoma, that his 2025 bombing of Iran, "Operation Midnight Hammer," targeted "drug factories" because Iran was "doing drugs."
- The conflict began in February 2025 with the stated goal of preventing Tehran from obtaining nuclear weapons; Trump previously boasted that B-2 bombers had "totally obliterated" Iran's alleged "nuclear threat" in one night.
- Describing the June 2025 mission, Trump claimed bombers flew from Missouri for 37 hours. "They unloaded every single bomb, went right down air chutes into this, uh, drug factories, really," he told the crowd, marking his first time citing such targets.
- With the conflict remaining deeply unpopular, the addition of "doing drugs" to his war justifications stands out. A recent CNN/SSRS poll found 73 percent of American voters disapprove of the president's handling of the war.
- International law experts have labeled the bombings of dubious legality, while the United Nations entity noted that Iran was allowing International Atomic Energy Agency inspectors continuous supervision of nuclear sites just weeks prior to the attack.
