‘Time’s Up!’ Bill O’Reilly Urges Major Iran Escalation That Would Lead Trump to Be ‘Condemned All Over the World’

Bill O’Reilly proposed a drastic escalation in the Iran war that would lead President Donald Trump to be “condemned all over the world.”

On Monday night’s episode of No Spin News, O’Reilly claimed the Iranians “don’t want peace” and just want to “run out the clock.” At the time of writing, the war had been going on for nearly six months after multiple failed efforts at negotiate a peace deal.

Trump has repeatedly claimed a deal was on the horizon.

O’Reilly then broke down what he would do if he were in Trump’s position.

His first order of business, he said, would be to bomb Pickaxe Mountain. In July, Israeli intelligence reportedly told the U.S. that Iran moved uranium-enrichment centrifuges to a facility inside the mountain. Trump has said the U.S. would attack the site.

Although O’Reilly acknowledged there was no guarantee that the bombs could actually destroy the materials, the attack “sends a message.”

His second order of business, O’Reilly continued, would be to bomb civilian infrastructure. He said:

I would single out targets in the capital of Tehran and give fair warning to the people who live in that city that we’re going to blow up your infrastructure. So, water, electricity, all of those things — boom. And I would say — in social media, and leaflets, or whatever you want to use — get out of there. I give the Persian people some [warning]. “Get out. It’s over. We’re not taking it anymore. Going to blow the infrastructure up in this city, and you’re going to have very hard time surviving.”

I think that if Trump did that, he’d be condemned all over the world. I believe that he would be, including the Democratic Party here. What’s the alternative? What is it?

Moments later, O’Reilly stressed that Trump was “doing the right thing” by waging war against Iran.

“Can’t let this nation have the nukes,” he said. “But something’s gotta give now. Time’s up, and that’s the memo.”
