Donald Trump has casually claimed that America did not start the war with Iran, which has killed thousands of people and upended oil prices.

The US President made the remark today at the national Veterans Day ceremony in Arlington National Cemetery, Virginia.

Speaking in the cemetery’s Memorial Amphitheater, Trump said: ‘America did not start a war with Iran.

‘Iran has been waging war in America since 1979. This should have been taken care of a long time ago.

‘It was about time somebody fought back. All of us fought back. We fought back, and we seriously fought back, and we won. Just a question of when we want to end it.

A clip of Trump insisting he did not start the war was shared by the White House’s Rapid Response 47 X account and affiliate, Trump War Room.

Trump also said the war will be over ‘soon’, though he gave no clear date.

He added that he ‘began operations’ against Iran ‘seven months ago, of which only a few weeks were active hard fighting’.
