President Donald Trump threatened Iran Tuesday with an ominous warning that seemed to allude to the use of nuclear weapons.
Trump’s latest threat comes amid a wave of fresh U.S. strikes against Iran near the Strait of Hormuz, strikes that U.S. officials say were designed to “prevent Iran from rebuilding the radar and missile capabilities it needs to attack ships” traveling through the strait, Axios reported. The strikes were also, according to Trump, retaliation for Iranian strikes on the U.S. Muwaffaq Salti Air Base in Jordan.
“The United States is, as we speak, striking Iranian Targets near the Strait of Hormuz. The strikes are large and powerful, and in retaliation for the Iranians’ failed attempt at adding sea mines to the Strait, which currently has no mines (They have been completely removed or detonated!), and the Iranians shooting eight missiles, all successfully knocked down, at our Military Base in Jordan,” Trump wrote on his social media platform Truth Social.
“If the failed Nation of Iran retaliates for this very justified attack, they will be hit again at a much harder and higher level, but it will not be the biggest attack of them all, that is waiting in the wings and, when it is over, there will be very little left of the Islamic Republic of Iran!”
Trump’s threat echoed a previous threat he issued to Iran in April when he warned that a “whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again.”
