00:00The Pentagon estimates the war with Iran, now in its third week, could last between four and six weeks.
00:07The timeline was disclosed by Kevin Hassett, head of the White House National Economic Council, in an interview with CBS
00:14as well.
00:15Hassett said the final decision on when the war ends will ultimately rest with US President Donald Trump.
00:23Hassett also said the United States has spent about $12 billion on the war since launching joint strikes with Israel
00:30on February 28.
00:31The figure revises an earlier Pentagon estimate of $11.3 billion disclosed last week.
00:38Hassett was among several administration officials urging Americans for patience as energy prices rise,
00:45saying the goal of eliminating Iran as a threat in the Middle East apparently justifies the cause.
00:52So they're closing the jaw, which is pretty much the sheer level of the war right that is held against
00:53the law.
00:53So it will be a very nice and clean reason for the war ends.
00:53It's a very easy and terrible ink.
00:53The war ends here in the war ends here in the FARC, and we are going to cover the war
00:53ends here in the war.
00:53And these were all four years old, and we have to cover the war ends here in the war that
00:53the war ends here in the war.
