New Yorkers woke up Saturday morning to news of the United States-Israeli military action against the Islamic Republic of Iran.<\/p>\n
News 12 spoke with residents in Downtown Brooklyn about the happenings in the Middle East Country.<\/p>\n
\u201cNo one wants war, there\u2019s so much war in this world right now, we don\u2019t want a new one,” said Yigit, a Turkish immigrant and owner of Psta. <\/p>\n
President Donald Trump spoke on the attacks early Saturday.<\/p>\n
\u201cI do not make this statement lightly. The Iranian regime seeks to kill. The lives of courageous American heroes may be lost, and we may have casualties. That often happens in war, but we’re doing this not for now. We’re doing this for the future,” Trump said.<\/p>\n
Some residents pushed back against that statement.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere doesn\u2019t have to be casualty there doesn\u2019t have to be war,” said Kyra, a Brooklyn resident.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"New Yorkers woke up Saturday morning to news of the United States-Israeli military action against the Islamic Republic…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":148655,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[38],"tags":[5219,128,14670,60,9,24,63,129,131,130,21181],"class_list":{"0":"post-148654","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-the-bronx","8":"tag-attack","9":"tag-bronx","10":"tag-iran","11":"tag-israel","12":"tag-new-york","13":"tag-new-york-city","14":"tag-nyc","15":"tag-the-bronx","16":"tag-the-bronx-headlines","17":"tag-the-bronx-news","18":"tag-war"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/148654","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=148654"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/148654\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/148655"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=148654"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=148654"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=148654"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
