US Iran War | “We Have Not Won This War...": Senator Shaheen Silences Secretary Hegseth
A sharp exchange unfolded during a US Senate hearing on the ongoing Iran conflict as Senator Jeanne Shaheen pushed back against Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s claims about America’s position in the war. “We have not won this war despite the rhetoric,” Senator Shaheen said, questioning the Trump administration’s assessment of the conflict and warning that Iran still retains significant military capabilities. The heated moment came amid growing scrutiny in Washington over the costs, strategy and long-term consequences of the US-Iran conflict, with lawmakers demanding greater clarity from the Pentagon on the war’s objectives and outcomes.
