President Donald Trump said Monday evening that the only people who should be arrested are those who led Iran to an 'unprecedented spiral of death and destruction,' according to remarks reported by N12 (Channel 12). Trump added that previous presidents should have dealt with this years ago.
President Donald Trump on Monday evening issued a new statement on Iran, arguing that the only people who should face arrest are those who 'led Iran to this unprecedented spiral of death and destruction.' The remarks, reported by N12 (Channel 12), mark another addition to Trump's increasingly aggressive rhetoric toward Tehran.
As The Zioneer has reported, Trump has in recent weeks described Iran as 'a bunch of psychopaths' and 'cancer that must be removed' (July 8), declared the ceasefire with Iran over (July 8), and warned that Iran's proxies must be halted or face stronger strikes (June 21). He also stated that 'three rounds of Iran's leadership have been eliminated' (July 8).
The latest statement appears to focus on holding senior Iranian leadership accountable, while suggesting that previous U.S. administrations failed to address the issue. It remains unclear what specific arrests Trump is referring to, as the U.S. and Iran remain in an active military confrontation.
