Trump:

"Like I said, some people will die. When you go to war, some people will die."

Pete Hegseth:

"The dumb, politically correct wars of the past were the opposite of what we're doing here. They had vague objectives with restrictive, minimalist rules of engagement. No more. Our authorities are maxed out. Our capabilities are overwhelming and gathering still, as are those of our Israeli partners. Our munitions are full up and our will is ironclad, which means our timeline is ours and ours alone to control as long as it takes…"

Mike Johnson:

"We are not at war. We have no intention of being at war. The Department of War has made it very clear -- this is a limited operation. It's an operation that is limited in its scope and duration."
