THE GARDEN TOMB, Jerusalem – Wednesday night marks the beginning of Passover for Jews in Israel and around the world. The war with Iran has made a dramatic impact on celebrations. It comes as President Trump signaled that the conflict could be nearing a turning point.
The president stated that the end of the war could be in sight and put a timeline on what he calls the final phase of the conflict.
He stated on Tuesday, “We’re finishing the job, and I think within two weeks, maybe a couple of days longer to do the job, but we want to knock out every single thing they have now. It’s possible we will make a deal before then.”

Trump is also dismissing concerns about Iran’s remaining nuclear capabilities, saying that what is left is buried and out of reach.
“It will take 15-20 years to rebuild what we have done to them,” he said.
The president is expected to address the nation Wednesday night with an update on the war situation.
Meanwhile, Iran is striking back with warnings of its own. The Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) is threatening major international companies such as Apple and Microsoft, accusing them of supporting U.S. and Israeli operations, and declaring them to be “legitimate targets.” Trump quickly brushed off that threat.
“With what?” he asked. “BB guns? They don’t have much left to threaten.”
He also aimed at traditional allies, including Britain and France, expressing his frustration that they haven’t done more to support the war effort.
However, in the Middle East, the war appears to be having the opposite effect. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu cited new regional alliances that are taking shape.
