Guardian: "A Very Dangerous Person" - Pete Hegseth Appears to Celebrate Slaughter in War with Iran

The Guardian article focuses on Pete Hegseth, the new US Secretary of Defense, and his concerning views and behaviors. Hegseth, a former Fox News presenter, is accused of aggressive and triumphant rhetoric regarding the war in Iran, as well as provocative statements and behaviors. His rise to such a high position raises concerns due to his lack of military experience and extreme beliefs, including Christian nationalism.
