Fox News' Jesse Watters suggests bombing Iran's energy infrastructure after country's threat to US over war in Gaza
NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: Fox News host Jesse Watters went on to suggest that Iran's threats against the US can only be responded to by bombing the Arab nation.
In a recent General Assembly held at the United Nations on the ongoing Israel-Palestine war, the Iranian Foreign Minister sent off a warning to the US for their continued contribution to the genocide of Palestinians, 7,000 of whom have been reportedly killed so far.
Watters made the proposal that attacking Iran's energy infrastructure could keep the country at bay from threatening America.

Minister Hossein Amirabdollahian's warning was what sent Watters off on making such violent suggestions.
"I say frankly to the American statesmen who are now managing the genocide in Palestine that we do not welcome the expansion of the war in the region," Amirabdollahian had said, "But I warn, if the genocide in Gaza continues, they will not be spared from this fire."
Watters was prompted to say that the US needs to take action against such 'threats' by Iran.
"Biden's being tested by the Iranians. The Iranian proxies keep taking these potshots at US bases. Now, some of the service members have now sustained critical brain injuries and the Pentagon was not honest about what happened. We just found out about it," the host said.
Watters then continued, "Eventually, Joe Biden and the generals are gonna have to respond. You cannot continue to sustain these types of injuries over and over and over again to do nothing. They only understand strength."
Jesse Watters wants US to bomb Iran's trade hub
As a strategy to protect the US and to weaken Iran, Watters suggested that they should target the major trade hub of the Arab nation. For that, the host also proposed that Ukraine be pushed down in the list of priorities.
"Biden's in the pickle because of Ukraine-Russia and because of what we've done with our energy sources here. He's keeping the Iranian oil game in play because he needs to keep oil prices at a certain level," Watters said.
He went on to add, "This is what I would do. I would screw the Ukraine situation right now. I'd send a missile right into the energy infrastructure of Iran. They have a hub right by the sea where they export everything they own. I would knock it the hell out of there and I would say, 'Alright guys, you are on your own for the next 3 years until you rebuild'. And that will get them to shut up."
