US President Donald Trump said: "America did not start a war with the Islamic Republic. This government has been at war against America since 1979; A war that should have stopped much earlier."
"We want to make sure we get a total victory," Trump said, stressing that America is looking for a total victory. We want 100% victory, not 93%."
He also said it would take 25 years to rebuild what America had destroyed and expressed hope that no more destruction was needed.
