## Resource

Are U.S. strikes against Iran enough to keep the strategic waterway open, or is our strategy fundamentally flawed? Retired Navy Rear Admiral Mark Montgomery joins Brian Kilmeade directly from Kyiv to break down the ongoing military escalation in the Persian Gulf. Admiral Montgomery reacts to Vice President JD Vance's "warmongering" accusations from the Joe Rogan podcast, exposing why Vance's defensive stance on the poorly written Iran Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) is inconsistent with reality.
