Trump says US to hit Iran 'extremely hard' for 2-3 weeks

U.S. President Donald Trump vowed Wednesday to attack Iran relentlessly over the coming two to three weeks, saying American forces were nearing completion of the war.

"Over the next two to three weeks, we are going to bring them back to the Stone Ages, where they belong," Trump said in an address to the nation, adding that U.S. forces would meet all their battlefield goals "very, very shortly."
