I didn't understand his speech, but CNBC says, "US will hit iran hard over the next 2-3 weeks"

Trump says U.S. will ‘hit’ Iran ‘extremely hard over next two to three weeks’
Trump said the U.S. is going to “hit” Iran “extremely hard” over the next two or three weeks, likely dashing hopes for those who hoped the war would end imminently.

“We’re going to hit them extremely hard over the next two to three weeks,” Trump said. “We’re going to bring them back to the stone ages, where they belong.”

Despite the apparent escalation, Trump said that “discussions are ongoing,” leaving a diplomatic resolution on the table.
