CALLER: Listen, tacking on to what you've been talking about and also your conversation with the senator, there's no more critical than getting us through these midterms than wrapping this thing up. I left a message on the president's Truth Social a few days ago. I said, dear Mr. President, please wrap this four letter word up, peace, four syllable word, plural, and obfuscation. And every day, Sean, that he doesn't finish this off is another day they make deals with Russia, they figure out another route to get oil in or out. You know, the military is doing a great job, but strategically, we're losing. I mean, look at the headline right now on Fox News --
SEAN HANNITY (HOST): We're not losing anything. The president is only giving them time to get their act together, and he's showing patience. And I know exactly what he's doing. He can wrap this up and end this today. He could just bomb them out and rip out their infrastructure. But what does that mean for the 90 million plus Iranian people?
So, it's not going to be a forever war. It's going to wrap up. In many ways, we've accomplished our main goal. They're not going to have nuclear weapons. I'm not sure if you could just entomb the nuclear dust or certainly keep eyes on it so they'll never get to it. And I think at that point, then the president can say, "mission accomplished." And, frankly, the Strait of Hormuz is the world's problem. It's not our problem. We just rid the world of a threat, of a nuclear armed Iran. We did our job.
Caller: Right.
HANNITY: Now it's up to them if they want the strait open. We don't need their oil. We don't need any oil from there.
