The strike killed at least 175 people, most of them young girls.“I will say that the Tomahawk, which is one of the most powerful weapons around, is used by, you know, is sold and used by other countries,” Trump said on Monday.“Whether it’s Iran, who also has some Tomahawks, they wish they had more, but whether it’s Iran or somebody else, the fact that a Tomahawk is very generic.

They have no accuracy whatsoever.
