Trump Warns of "Extremely Hard" Strikes on Iran for Next 2-3 Weeks: "We'll Bring Them Back to the Stone Age"

As tensions escalate in the Middle East, President Donald Trump delivered a primetime address to the nation, declaring that America's military objectives in the war with Iran are "nearing completion" — but warning that the conflict could drag on for another 2 to 3 weeks with intensified strikes ahead.

In his speech, Trump stated that U.S. and Israeli forces have significantly degraded Iran's missile capabilities, sunk much of its navy, and eliminated key leadership figures. "We are on track to complete all of America’s military objectives shortly," he said, while adding that more "extremely hard" actions are planned if Tehran does not fully comply.

Despite these claims, Iran continues to launch missiles at Israel and Gulf states, including reported strikes on Kuwait, Bahrain, and targets near major bridges in Iran itself. Oil prices have surged amid fears over the Strait of Hormuz, a critical global energy chokepoint, with no clear U.S. plan yet to fully reopen shipping lanes.

The conflict, which began in late February 2026, has already caused thousands of casualties and widespread displacement. Trump emphasized that the goal is to neutralize Iran's threat permanently, but critics question the timeline and long-term strategy as markets react nervously with rising fuel costs and stock declines.

Meanwhile, the war's ripple effects are being felt globally — from energy markets to ongoing tensions in Ukraine, where some analysts see overlapping influences from Russia and Iran.
