Trump calls Iran the "Middle East failure" and threatens a strong strike
Trump responded to Iran's apology to Middle Eastern countries. He said on a social platform that Iran has "suffered a disastrous defeat," apologized and surrendered to its neighboring countries in the Middle East, and promised not to launch attacks anymore.
"This promise came about entirely because of the relentless strikes by the United States and Israel. They once tried to conquer and rule the Middle East. This is the first time in a thousand years that Iran has failed before its neighbors in the Middle East. They said: 'Thank you, President Trump.' I replied: 'You're welcome!' Iran is no longer the 'Middle East thug,' but has become the 'Middle East failure,' and will remain so for decades to come, until it surrenders, or more likely, collapses completely!"
Trump also announced that he would launch a strong strike against Iran: "Due to Iran's bad behavior, we are seriously considering destroying areas and armed groups that were not previously targeted, and these targets will inevitably be eliminated."
Prior to this, Iranian President Pezeshkian pledged that Iran would not target these countries again as long as their territories are not used to attack Iran, and apologized to its neighboring countries for recent attacks.
Meanwhile, US Secretary of War Hagel said that Russia is providing intelligence to Iran, but stated that the US is not currently concerned about it. "The American people can rest assured that their commander-in-chief knows what is going on. Any event that should not happen... will be met with a firm counterattack. We are monitoring everything and incorporating it into our combat plans."
