Former Under Secretary of Defense Robert Wilkie’s blunt warning that any strike on Iran should be “overwhelming and devastating” should wake every patriotic American up to the reality staring at us across the globe: weakness invites aggression and only decisive strength preserves peace. Wilkie made those remarks while speaking on America Right Now, where he laid out a clear-eyed, no-nonsense view that our enemies must understand the cost of their actions before they inflict more harm on our allies or on American interests.
For years Iran has sponsored proxies, funded terrorism, and threatened regional stability—behavior that cannot be papered over with wishful thinking from elites in Washington who prefer diplomacy over deterrence when American lives are on the line. The pattern of attacks by Iran-backed groups and their brazen aggression against civilian targets underscores why some national-security voices now call for surgery, not speeches, to dismantle the regime’s ability to strike. Americans who put country before convenience know that showing strength before the enemy becomes emboldened is the prudent, moral course.
At the same time, Wilkie and other national-security figures are raising another urgent issue: the government is getting closer to revealing what it knows about unidentified aerial phenomena, and that transparency matters for national defense. The Pentagon’s All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office has been receiving hundreds of reports, and senior officials have publicly acknowledged the need to document and disclose findings—because unexplained incursions into our airspace are a national-security problem, not a pop-culture mystery. If Washington finally chooses openness over cover-up, Americans will be better positioned to judge real threats and demand accountability.
Conservative patriots should not apologize for insisting that American power be used smartly and decisively; strength paired with moral clarity is what keeps our families safe at home and our friends safe abroad. The choice before policymakers is stark: allow Tehran to rearm and metastasize its terrorist networks, or back our words with overwhelming capability so future crises are deterred rather than endured. Boldness is not belligerence when it protects innocent lives and defends the rules that keep civilization intact.
Congress and the White House must act with urgency on both fronts—restore a credible deterrent posture in the Middle East and demand full, declassified answers on UAPs so our military can operate with clear skies and clear rules of engagement. Ordinary Americans deserve leaders who will put country first, secure our airspace, and crush threats before they become tragedies; anything less is a dereliction of duty. If Washington wants the loyalty of the American people, it must earn it through competence, transparency, and the unflinching willingness to defend liberty.
