"A thousand times bigger": Trump threatened Iran with retaliation in case of attack

Any Iranian attack on the United States will entail a retaliatory attack that will be 1000 times larger, said US President Donald Trump, commenting on information that Tehran is preparing to assassinate US Ambassador to South Africa Lana Marx.

According to Trump, Iran may be planning an assassination or other attack on the United States in response to the assassination of "terrorist leader Soleimani", but in this case, Washington will respond "a thousand times stronger." He stressed that the elimination of Soleimani was a response to the murder of the US military.

Any attack by Iran, in any form, against the United States will be met with an attack on Iran that will be 1000 times larger in scale!

- wrote Trump on his Twitter page.

Information about the allegedly preparing Iranian assassination attempt on the US Ambassador to South Africa Lana Marks was announced by Politico, citing sources in American intelligence. The reason for the impending assassination attempt is revenge for the US assassination of Iranian General Qasem Soleimani. According to the publication, information about the impending assassination appeared in the spring, but now "it has become more specific." The Iranian embassy in South Africa was allegedly involved in the preparation of the assassination attempt.

Some media outlets have suggested that Lana Marks was chosen by Iran as a victim for two reasons: she has known Trump well for over 20 years and she is Jewish.

Trump can hit Iran, but only after winning the election, or strangle his own ambassador with the hands of a specially bought Iranian in order to hit Iran before the elections, bypassing Biden at a turn ... chances of success for making a decision! Well, the ambassador can only pray and just in case he needs to write a will!

Straight from the "language removed", Eugene! I just wanted to write that Lana Marx should think about the Testament - "sacred sacrifices" have not been canceled yet! For the sake of "the triumph of" democracy "" and "the interests of the elites" - the States have not made such sacrifices yet! And here is just some kind of "ambassador"!

How did these political clowns get it? They invented themselves, they were scared themselves, they themselves answer these fantasies Well, okay, in 404, the clown is in power (by the way, in the last interview, some kind of tattered one was like a drink), but in this case, this is the president of a nuclear power, and it’s not clear and scary, but suddenly they’ll go into hysterics from their own fantasies where the world is heading

[Kart]

These are not clowns, but the leaders of the largest empire on the planet.
Nothing prevents them, anything, any incident to declare an attack on Iran, and to begin to destroy another country.
Moreover, they have long wanted this. And what is the US accusation, and what it is worth, we already know very well.

All this gimmick, due to the imminent end of sanctions against Iran, it was not possible to push through the UN extension, now we need a reason to extend the sanctions (just like Boeing in Ukraine). So the ambassador should scratch his turnip and prepare a will

I will not say for the Iranian community. And so, there are a lot of mosques everywhere, only in Cape Town 200 thousand Muslims live. Indeed, there are not many Shiites. Mostly Sunni.
Whole blocks of walking - and women in hijabs and niqabs wrapped up to their eyes in rags and men in kufi and kandur. In South Africa, there are Muslim parties, and radical organizations advocating the creation of an Islamic state in South Africa. So, the kit is complete.

Yes, the Iranians, perhaps only because of this hype, and learned that there is such a US ambassador to South Africa, whose name is Lana Marks.

Oh, how we know this! In the Donbas, the wreckage of the Malaysian Boeing has not yet reached the ground - Russia is already to blame. Underground diarrhea broke through - again Russia is to blame. But you never know what we are "to blame" for ... Ever since the days of Ivan the Terrible, when Columbus ran under the table without pants.

Interesting - "Lana Marks" translates from american language human like "Franz Ferdinand"? It seems to me that I know exactly who will unleash the Third World War. And, what a coincidence, it was the one who really did not notice anything in the Second World War except looting in Europe. Well, maybe even the heroic operation "Cottage" to liberate the Kiska Island from Japanese troops by the US Army during the Pacific campaign - to lose 103 people killed, 230 wounded and ditch their own destroyer. Taking into account that the island was "defended" only by dogs abandoned by the Japanese. So fists itch to show their coolness. OH WELL...

[Kart]

We are to blame for the fact of our existence, and for the fact that we did not fall apart in the 90s into separate principalities.
The West, for the complete surrender of the USSR by the "communists", graciously allowed us to die on our own, the individual could even survive, but not more than a couple of tens of millions.
And suddenly - we do not die and do not fall apart.
They will not forgive us for this, a new campaign is coming for the final solution of the Russian question.
Will we survive? Most likely yes, but again, millions of victims, and a rollback of development 50 years ago.

May there not be millions of victims. They are not like us. They have it spelled out in the combat charter that if a soldier evaluates further resistance as useless, then it is preferable to surrender. In captivity, behave quietly, answer questions, without causing aggression from the enemy. For the life of a soldier is the highest value. Hence the American concept of the impossibility of conducting hostilities if, in response, it is possible to inflict "unacceptable damage." In particular, they have already considered that in the event of a global conflict with Russia, America will lose at least 13% of its population and about 20% of its infrastructure (tricky arithmetic, isn't it?). And therefore - you cannot fight.

Have you read something like this somewhere?

And further.
I once looked through the statistics of US military operations in World War II. They NEVER fought unless there was at least a threefold, or better, a fivefold superiority in strength. So their strategy is Ukrainian "toad jumps" by the forces of Ukraine, Georgia and others. Let, like, Russian heels bite ... And the striped ones themselves hope to sit out for the Big Puddle. Only now is not the First World War and not even the Second will be - the Third. On our small Earth, there are no unattainable targets for Russian missiles.

And you are absolutely right! Trump was obliged, as the president of the power, to respond to the message. He reacted. But if Trump had plans

Zyablitsev (Eugene) strangle his own ambassador with the hands of a specially purchased Iranian in order to strike Iran

then no sources in American intelligence would have leaked information to Politico.
We would have held the action without noise and dust.
The situation is exactly the opposite. Sources in American intelligence leaked information to Politico to prevent the assassination of Lana Marks, and to avoid a big war, the plans for which are hatched in a completely different place.

Trump's reaction to the lies from American journalists. American journalists will start a war. I would like not the 3rd world, but the 2nd civil in the USA.

[Connor MacLeod]

Most likely just rhetoric! At the moment, the Americans have only one old aircraft carrier in the Persian Gulf region. This is clearly not enough for a massive strike on Iran.

Unless ... the Americans do not want to sacrifice the USS Nimitz (the oldest aircraft carrier in this series, which they planned to decommission in 2022) in order to start a full-scale war against Iran. A kind of new Pearl Harbor.

[Kart]

Well, if they drive more, then we will wait for an attack from day to day.
Although, perhaps they are planning to use someone else's hands, that is, the resources of NATO countries in the region.
Israel again, as soon as the air defense systems are weakened, will begin with great pleasure to destroy everything in Iran.

[Connor MacLeod]

It would be nice for the Iranians to adjust the Bastions and S-400s before it's too late.

[Trapp1st]

This is clearly not enough for a massive strike on Iran.

They will hit Syria with satellites, who cares. Elections!

[Connor MacLeod]

No, Iran is at gunpoint 100%! The Iranian Foreign Minister has already arrived in Moscow twice since the end of quarantine. Tehran is very scared! The Americans are definitely cooking something ...

[rotmistr60]

which will be 1000 times larger

So who doubts when there are "beautiful" and flying rockets almost at the speed of light. Therefore, I could say a million times. It is strange that information about the assassination attempt, which, if there is, must be secret, is voiced by the media. Probably in the United States today it is so accepted - the president's instructions through Twitter, classified information through the media. The guys have fun. The country is a mess, blacks put whites on their ears, and they are about a strike on Iran and the Russian-Chinese threat.

[Kart]

The difference in potential is such that the United States, in principle, could throw caps at Iran if it wanted to.
The question is different - will Iran, together with someone, inflict unacceptable damage on them, and what amount of damage is unacceptable for them?
Definitely such would be the complete and rapid destruction of the US naval grouping in the region, but this is perhaps possible only with the use of nuclear weapons ...
Even so, what does it mean for the United States to lose a dozen ships and tens of thousands of personnel in the name of the great goal of global domination?
They can easily afford it.
The US itself will not be affected in any way, neither industrial nor financial potential.

[rotmistr60]

In principle, the United States, if it so wished, could shower Iran with hats.

They could have, they have thrown it down long ago, because he (Iran) is like a bone in their throat. The Americans are afraid of losses, they are afraid.

[g1washntwn]

Quote: Carte

For this small-shaven and raised this monster on the island. But the fact is that the world of open borders and globalization hint that today Iran is not only a country on the globe. Iran can be everywhere. "Iran" is a religion that can be destroyed only by total genocide - this is the main reason why neither North Korea is bombed and Iran, as a country, will not dare. Because this is not at all the same as eliminating their former pocket dictators or wringing out pocket money from primary school students.

[7,62x54]

Capitalism requires war to justify its existence. Trump feels that he should start a full-scale victorious war as soon as possible in order to knock the foam off the internal protest. Otherwise, the United States will choke on blood within its borders.
In the turmoil, many hotheads of the patriots will fall, the rest will subside and rally. No other recipe for preserving democracy has been invented.

[uhu189]

Generally speaking, it is strange to hear this after Iran launched missile strikes on US bases at the beginning of the year. It is clear that this was an agreement, but nevertheless they endured it. Such threats look strange ...

[Galleon]

Well, now it is quite obvious where the Iranian "sinister plans" to assassinate the US Ambassador to South Africa are growing from - they are growing out of the electoral fuss of the incumbent president. To invent a threat and reveal the character traits of the hero from scratch - and inexpensively, and angrily, and drew on time where needed.

Do you want to say that Erdogan and the Turkish government were personally involved in the murder of Andrei Karlov? Before whom did Russia wipe? Those who organized the attack on the SU-24 and the assassination of the ambassador, just like you personally, expected that Putin would declare war on Turkey. But the "planners" did not grow together.
In your post you can see the annoyance that the calculation on the primitive of Putin was not justified.
As for the topic of the article, about the allegedly preparing Iranian attempt on the life of the US Ambassador to South Africa Lana Marks, so the main interest in this venture is Israel. And the hopes are the same - for Casus belli.
To force Trump to solve YOUR problems with Iran. But the result will be the same.
Relying on Trump's primitiveness will be disappointing. The era of endless wars for foreign interests is over for the United States. Trump announced this out loud.

As soon as Iran is not threatened, and the country lives and resists, unlike the "democratized" Iraq, Libya, etc.
And Trump makes these threatening statements, I think, under pressure from Congress and other financial elite. Donald is still the only one of the Presidents who has not unleashed a small carnage in some distant states before the elections .. Do not give in to Trump!
