U.S. Warns Iran That 52 Iranian Sites Identified If Iran Retaliates


Trump says US to strike 52 Iranian sites 'VERY FAST and VERY HARD’ if Tehran moves to avenge general's death



US President Donald Trump has said the US military have identified 52 sites important to Iran and its culture which its ready to rain hellfire upon if Teheran targets US citizens or assets to avenge the killing of its top general.
In unleashing yet another dire warning to Iran, Trump appeared to refer to a recent statement by a senior commander within the elite Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), who said earlier on Saturday that Iran had identified about 35 vital US and Israeli targets in the region “a long time ago.”

"If Iran strikes any Americans, or American assets, we have...targeted 52 Iranian sites (representing the 52 American hostages taken by Iran many years ago), some at a very high level & important to Iran & the Iranian culture, and those targets, and Iran itself, WILL BE HIT VERY FAST AND VERY HARD," Trump said as he launched into a fresh anti-Iran diatribe on Twitter.
The threat comes as tensions between Washington and Teheran are at the boiling point after a US drone strike near Baghdad on Thursday killed the leader of the IRGC’s Quds Force – a special unit tasked with operations abroad. Major General Qassem Soleimani, whom Trump dubbed Iran’s “terrorist leader” was instrumental in the defeat of the Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS) in Syria and Iraq.

WE KNOW THAT MR TRUMP LOVES STOCK PRICES AT RECORDS WHICH WILL BE A VERY DISTANT REALITY IF HE CAUSES ANY MORE PROBLEMS IN THE MIDDLES EAST. WHEN IN FACT IT MAY ALREADY BE TOO LATE. MR TRUMP SHOULD STOP TALKING OR WW3 IS NEXT.
