Trump says US ready to strike, 52 Iranian sites, if Tehran attacks

Oct 18,2022 4:41 am

President Trump warned Iran not to the Americans or US-assets

President Trump beat warned, the United States is "targeting" 52 Iranian sites and Strike "very quickly and very hard" if Tehran attacks Americans or American assets.

The President for his remarks on the assassination of the US-Qasem Soleimani , a top Iranian general followed, in a drone Strike .

Soleimani killing was a major escalation between the two Nations, Iran and vowed "severe revenge".

Writing on Twitter, Mr Trump accused Iran of "speak very boldly about targeting US certain assets".

He said the US had identified 52 Iranian sites, some "on a very high level & is important to Iran & Iranian culture", and warned that they would "hit HIT VERY FAST AND HARD," if Tehran in the USA.

The President said the goals represented, the 52 Americans Held Hostage in Iran for More Than a year by the end of 1979, after they were taken, the U.S. Embassy in Tehran .

Shortly after The President of the tweets that have been posted to the website of a US Government Agency tracks which have been hacked by a group Iran Cyber Security-Hacker group calling itself"". A message on the U.S. Federal Depository Library program Website read: "This is a message from the Islamic Republic of Iran .

"We will not stop the support of our friends in the region, The Oppressed people in Palestine, The Oppressed people of Yemen, the people and the Syrian government, to the people and government of Iraq, The Oppressed people in Bahrain, the true Mujahideen resistance in Lebanon and Palestine, [they] are always supported by us. "

The Web -page contained doctored a picture of President Trump, the hit him in The Face and was bleeding at the mouth. "This is only a small part of Iran 's cyber-capability!" You can read the text on the Website.

is What happened earlier on Saturday?

Mr Trump's tweet was followed by a huge funeral procession for General Soleimani held in Baghdad, where he was killed in a targeted drone Strike on Friday, as he left The Airport in a convoy. Mourners waved Iraqi and militia flags and chanted "death to America".

Several rocket attacks rocked the area shortly after The Procession , including in the Green Zone near the US Embassy. The Iraqi military, no one spoke, was breached.

No group immediately responsible for The Rocket attacks. Pro-Iranian activists have been blamed for other recent attacks.

Soleimani s body came back to Iran on Sunday, the country's IRIB news agency reported.

With Iran already harsh reprisals for The Killing of a Quds Force commander threatening The President , Trump has clearly stated that The Best way to de-escalate, is the increase of the shares in advance, make clear what will happen if Tehran follows through on its threats.

The trump tweet is strange in many ways - not least of which is the symbolic mention of 52 Iranian targets At Risk - is a reference to the 52 U.S. hostages seized the US Embassy in Tehran in November 1979.

His mention of the objectives is important" to the Iranian culture" suggests a much wider goal list than just the leadership, military or economic locations.

President of the Trump fight, in order to establish a kind of deterrence. But The Ball is now clearly in Iran 's court, and it is very difficult to see how Tehran can not act.

Mr Trump has pursued a contradictory policy, since he left, the nuclear agreement with Tehran - the increasing economic pressure, the threat of military action, but actually do very little, even if Iran shot down a sophisticated U.S. drone and hit the oil installations in Saudi Arabia .

Above all, he has underlined time and again, his and Washington's fatigue with his military commitment in the region. This, like many other things, undermine US deterrence something Mr Trump is now looking to restore late.

Why did the US kill Soleimani?

General Soleimani was widely considered to be the second most powerful figure in Iran behind the Supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei .

The 62-year-old headed Iran 's Middle East operations as head of The Elite Quds Force , and was celebrated as a heroic national figure.

But The American -brand of The Commander of the Quds Force , a terrorist, and hold you responsible for the death of hundreds of US personnel.

Speaking on Friday afternoon, President Trump Soleimani was "plotting imminent and sinister attacks" on U.S. diplomats and military in Iraq and elsewhere in the region.
