President Donald Trump promised a swift end to his war in Iran during a Wednesday-night speech that didn’t detail what military objectives his administration is pursuing nor what it wants from the Iranian government.
Speaking during the fifth week of Operation Epic Fury, Trump made no mention of thousands of soldiers from the 82nd Airborne Division who arrived in the Middle East in recent days, nor of reports that the Pentagon had put together plans for a ground operation to seize Iran’s highly enriched uranium.
“Thanks to the progress we've made, I can say tonight, we are on track to complete all of America's military objectives shortly, very shortly,” the president said. “We're going to hit them extremely hard over the next two to three weeks. We're going to bring them back to the stone ages, where they belong. In the meantime, discussions are ongoing.”
