The US will be safer, stronger, and more prosperous than ever before once the conflict is over, the president has claimed

US President Donald Trump has called the war on Iran an investment in the future of American children as he delivered his first address to the nation since the start of the conflict a month ago.

In his speech on Wednesday, Trump claimed that Washington was never looking for regime change in Tehran, with its goals being the destruction of Iran’s navy and air force, and denying it the ability to create a nuclear weapon. “These core strategic objectives are nearing completion,” he insisted.

During the 32 days of fighting since the US and Israel launched their attack, Iran “has been eviscerated and essentially is really no longer a threat… This is a true investment in your children and your grandchildren’s future,” Trump said.

The fighting would continue “over the next two to three weeks” until the US goals are “fully achieved,” he added.

Trump again warned the authorities in Tehran that “if there is no deal, we are going to hit each and every one of their electric generating plants very hard and probably simultaneously.”
