Why it matters

The stakes turn on whether readers accept that US President Donald Trump said the military could end its Iran offensive in two to three weeks. That point shapes the political meaning of the story.

Common ground

The clearest point to anchor on is this: US President Donald Trump said the military could end its Iran offensive in two to three weeks.
