The Defense Department has decided to stop appointing civilians to tenured faculty positions at U.S. military academies, Defense Secretary Hegseth says.

US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth spoke Friday at a Pentagon ceremony marking the 25th anniversary of the September 11 attacks. He linked the ongoing conflict in Iran to the 2001 attacks, accusing an “Islamic theocracy” of wishing America dead for decades, celebrating 9/11 and sponsoring attacks that killed thousands of Americans and US comrades.

US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth spoke Friday at a Pentagon ceremony marking the 25th anniversary of the September 11 attacks. He shifted to the ongoing conflict in Iran and sought to link it to the 2001 attacks, saying Iran’s “Islamic theocracy” has wished the US dead for decades, cheered 9/11 and sponsored attacks against Americans.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth told Norah O’Donnell last month that the United States has “all the control in the world” over the outcome of the Iran war and touted “historic” devastation to Iran’s military capabilities. The interview also features a U.S. Air Force officer shot down in Iran in April who survived two days in the mountains before being rescued.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth says U.S. military action against Iran has not been ruled out. Fox News reports from Tel Aviv and discusses the effects and implications of new U.S. sanctions on Iran.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said the United States could still consider military strikes against Iran if tensions worsen, while stressing the effect of economic pressure.
