Hegseth Says the Campaign in Iran is Accelerating, Might Last Eight Weeks

At a press briefing on Wednesday morning, Secretary of War Pete Hegseth said the U.S. military campaign in Iran would be accelerating with more warplanes arriving in the area, delivering “death and destruction all day long.”

Hegseth said it was never intended to be a fair fight, and they are punching them when they are down.

Iran cannot outlast the U.S., Hegseth declared, adding that the war could continue for, three, four, six or eight weeks.

He chastised the fake news for trying to make the President look bad because there were American casualties.

Hegseth admits the formidable U.S. defense shield also cannot stop everything that Tehran is firing at its neighbors in the Middle East.

But they were able to kill those Iranians who were reportedly responsible for assassination attempts on Trump.

Regarding the reported strikes on a girls’ school that killed 168 people, Hegseth says they are investigating. The Israeli military has declined to comment.
