'A whole civilization will die tonight': Trump issues disturbing early-morning threat
Source: Raw Story · Bias: Far Left
Summary
President Donald Trump issued a disturbing message on social media Tuesday to the people of Iran, warning them that their civilization will likely “never be brought back again” as his Tuesday night deadline for Tehran looms.“A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again. I don’t want that to happen, but it probably will,” Trump wrote on his social media platform Truth Social.“However, now that we have Complete and Total Regime Change, where different, smarter, and less radicalized minds prevail, maybe something revolutionarily wonderful can happen, WHO KNOWS? We will find out tonight, one of the most important moments in the long and complex history of the World.”Trump has threatened to destroy Iran’s civilian infrastructure, including water treatment plants, energy plants and bridges, starting Tuesday night at 8 p.m. EST if his demand for Tehran to lift restrictions on a critical shipping waterway are not lifted. Negotiations have stalled between the two countries, and Trump on Monday doubled down on his threat.“47 years of extortion, corruption, and death, will finally end,” Trump continued. “God Bless the Great People of Iran!”
