Donald Trump has given his thoughts on when the ongoing war in Iran will come to an end, as tensions continue to rise between the nations. In a recent interview, the President said he’ll know the war will end when he feels it in his “bones.”
Donald Trump talks about Iran War getting over
Donald Trump has recently addressed the Iran war in an interview on Fox News Radio’s The Brian Kilmeade Show. During the 33-minute-long conversation, the President stated that the ongoing crisis will not continue much longer. “When it’s over — and I don’t think it’s going to be long — when it’s over, this is going to bounce right back so fast.”
Kilmeade then asked the 79-year-old when he would know if the war is over, to which Trump replied, “When I feel it. When I feel it in my bones.”
Kilmeade went on to ask the President if he would “ask anybody in particular” and if it would be a “joint decision.” “I have great people. You know, I have General Raisin Kane. I have Pete [Hegseth]. Pete’s turned out to be a star. Marco [Rubio] ‘s great. JD [Vance], I’ve got all good people… We’ve got a great group,” Trump responded.
The ongoing conflict in Iran began when Israel and the United States launched a joint surprise airstrike in the country on February 28, 2026, assassinating Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei. Iran subsequently responded with missile and drone strikes targeting multiple locations in Israel as well as U.S. military bases in Bahrain, Jordan, Kuwait, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and the United Arab Emirates.
Trump’s latest statement comes two weeks after he addressed the conflict on March 1. Speaking with The New York Times, the POTUS stated that the U.S. has planned to continue its attacks on Iran for “four to five weeks.”
However, Gen. Dan Caine, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, gave a contrasting update at a press conference the next day. He said, “The military objectives that CENTCOM and the Joint Force have been tasked with will take some time to achieve.”
Additionally, on a March 11 phone interview with Axios, Trump maintained that the war with Iran will come to an end “soon” as there is “practically nothing left to target.”
