YouTube Description
as posted by the channelNational Security Advisor Michael Flynn just put Iran “on notice." Trump attacked Hillary for invading Iraq. Now he's pounding the war drums for Iran. Ana Kasparian and John Iadarola, hosts of The Young Turks, break it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.
"The Trump administration has said it was “officially putting Iran on notice” in reaction to an Iranian missile test and an attack on a Saudi warship by Iranian-backed Houthi rebels in Yemen but gave no details about how Washington intended to respond.
The threat was made on Wednesday by the national security adviser, Michael Flynn, in his first public statement since taking office.
Speaking in the White House briefing room, Flynn said a missile launch on Sunday and a Houthi attack on a Saudi frigate on Monday underlined Iran’s “destabilizing behavior across the Middle East.”.
Flynn did not specify how the new administration would respond. Asked for clarification, the White House spokesman, Sean Spicer, said the president wanted to make sure the Iranians “understood we are not going to sit by and not act on their actions”.
At a White House briefing, senior administration officials repeatedly refused to rule out any options for a US response, including military intervention.
“There are a large number of options available to the administration,” one senior official said. “We’re going to take appropriate action.”
Asked if measures under consideration included a military option, the official replied: “We are considering a whole range of options.””*
