Trump addresses nation on ongoing Iran war

President Donald Trump addressed the nation in a primetime speech on the ongoing U.S.-Israeli war against Iran, which began on February 28. Trump declared that core strategic objectives were 'nearing completion' and projected the conflict would last another two to three weeks, while threatening to bomb Iran 'back to the stone ages' if no deal is reached. The speech drew scrutiny for leaving key questions unanswered, including the status of a peace plan, the Strait of Hormuz, and whether regime change had actually occurred.
