President Donald Trump has declared the war against the terrorist regime in Iran “very complete,” with the U.S. military obliterating Iran’s navy and air force far ahead of schedule.

As The Gateway Pundit has extensively reported,Iran’s proxies have been attacking U.S. interests for over two decades,funding terrorism and threatening global stability.

Just last week, we detailed how before Trump’s strikes, Iran and its proxies had been attacking America relentlessly, including funding anti-Israel protesters right here in the U.S. and plotting assassinations against Trump himself.

According to a report from CBS News correspondent Weijia Jiang, President Trump said in a phone interview that the United States has effectively dismantled Iran’s military capabilities and is far ahead of the timeline originally projected for the operation.

“In a phone interview, President Trump told me the war could be over soon: “I think the war is very complete, pretty much. They have no navy, no communications, they’ve got no Air Force.” He added that the U.S. is “very far” ahead of his initial 4-5 week estimated time frame,” Jiang wrote.

Trump also revealed he has no message whatsoever for Iran’s new Supreme Leader, Mojtaba Khamenei, who recently assumed power after the death of his father, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, during the early days of the conflict

Asked about Iran’s new Supreme leader Mojtaba Khamenei, who Trump has openly criticized, he said, “I have no message for him. None, whatsoever.” Trump said he has someone in mind to replace Khamenei, but he did not elaborate.
