"I can say to the American people with great confidence that they [Iranians] are much further away from a nuclear program today than they were 24 hours ago."

"Our nuclear installations have been badly damaged, that's for sure."

"Israel's and U.S. attacks have effectively destroyed Iran's centrifuge enrichment program."

"Iran's key nuclear enrichment facilities have been completely and totally obliterated."

On Thursday, Friedman ruled the Pentagon had failed to comply with his March order, finding that the closure of the Correspondents' Corridor and the ban on unescorted journalists were "transparent attempts to negate the impact" of his earlier ruling.

Friedman ordered the Pentagon to restore press credentials for seven New York Times journalists and directed the Defense Department to submit a compliance report by the following Thursday. The Pentagon said it disagreed with the ruling and intended to appeal.
