At his 78th birthday celebration, former President Donald Trump pledged to build a "great" Iron Dome for the U.S., stating that it would be "made in America" and provide "jobs, jobs, jobs."
Former President Donald Trump has unveiled plans to build a "great" Iron Dome for the U.S., akin to Israel's missile defense system, during his 78th birthday rally in Florida.
At his birthday soirée at Club 47 in West Palm Beach on Friday evening, Trump said, "By next term we will build a great Iron Dome over our country." He emphasized the need for such a defensive shield, stating, "We deserve a dome. We deserve it all, made state of the art."

According to Trump, the proposed Iron Dome would be "all made in America" and provide ample employment opportunities. He said, "Jobs, jobs, jobs." The former president recalled how Ronald Reagan had once advocated for an Iron Dome in the U.S., but at that time, the technology was lacking. "We now have the technology," Trump declared.
Trump outlined that his Iron Dome project would be manufactured in various states and create "beautiful" opportunities for young people. He said, "It's all going to be made in states. We're going to have a big, beautiful Iron Dome."

Israel's Iron Dome system, which is largely funded by the U.S., has been instrumental in intercepting and destroying short-range rockets and artillery fired from the Gaza Strip, as well as Hamas militants, Palestinian forces, and Iranian drones and missiles.
Trump's proposal comes amid heightened tensions with Russia, China, and North Korea, which have been developing and testing advanced missile systems. The former president's pledge to build an American Iron Dome aligns with his broader agenda of strengthening the country's defense capabilities.

In his rally speech, Trump also criticized the Biden administration's handling of foreign policy, accusing President Biden of presiding over a "crooked" and "incompetent" government. He vowed to restore America's "greatness" and "make America respected again," promising lower taxes, booming economic growth, and a secure border.
Trump's pledge to build an Iron Dome for the U.S. has been met with mixed reactions. Some supporters view it as a proactive measure to counter potential threats, while critics question its feasibility and expense. The proposal is likely to become a key talking point in the upcoming presidential campaign.
