US leader Donald Trump issued a harsh threat to Iran, stating that "an entire civilization will perish tonight" as the deadline for Iran to open the Strait of Hormuz approaches, UNN reports.
An entire civilization will perish tonight, and it will never be revived. I don't want it to happen, but it probably will. However, now that we have had a complete and total regime change, with other, smarter, and less radical minds prevailing, perhaps something revolutionary and beautiful will happen, WHO KNOWS? We will find out tonight, at one of the most important moments in the long and complex history of the world. 47 years of extortion, corruption, and death will finally end. God bless the great people of Iran!
Let's add
Earlier, Trump threatened to destroy Iranian power plants and other civilian infrastructure, stating that the country would face dire consequences if it did not open the Strait of Hormuz by 8 PM ET on Tuesday. Trump had previously set several deadlines, which were later changed.
The President and the White House dismissed concerns that striking such infrastructure could be a war crime.
