U.S. President Donald Trump stated Thursday that the conflict with Iran will conclude "very soon." Speaking at a rally in South Carolina ahead of the midterm elections, Trump took a firm stance against the Tehran regime, harshly criticizing the nuclear deal signed under former President Barack Obama. Trump asserted that the canceled deal had facilitated Iran's path to obtaining a nuclear weapon, stating, "It was Iran's way to get a nuclear weapon. I canceled it. It was a way to get a nuclear weapon."
Trump claimed that his administration had "destroyed Iran's uranium enrichment capability and defeated them militarily, economically, and in every other way." He emphasized his commitment to preventing Iran from ever acquiring nuclear weapons, adding, "Now we are making sure, and as you know, that Iran will never have a nuclear weapon. This should have been done years ago." He further elaborated on the averted threat, saying, "If Iran had a nuclear weapon, we would be sitting on a barrel of explosives. Our lives would look completely different because they are crazy. But with me, they don't play games."
Regarding the timeline for ending hostilities and future U.S. actions, Trump concluded, "It will end very soon. We can leave right now, but we want to make sure the achievements last for a long time. When you look at what we have done, it's amazing. Our military is unbelievable."
Trump's remarks come amid reports of detailed operational plans developed by the U.S. military and the IDF to resume extensive strikes inside Iran. According to a New York Times report, the planned operation was expected to commence after the U.S. midterm elections. Sources revealed that Israel and the U.S. were on the verge of a broad attack on Iran earlier this month, with both militaries having completed extensive preparations and their air forces on high alert. However, President Trump made a last-minute decision to postpone the attack.
The current plans, formulated between Washington and Jerusalem, include targeted strikes on critical infrastructure of the Iranian regime, such as nuclear facilities, national energy infrastructure, and strategic depots for missiles and drones.
