Iran’s President Hassan Rouhani is making the biggest mistake of his life.
In a recent speech, Rouhani issued an unthinkable threat to President Donald Trump.
And Iran’s error could lead to World War Three.
Rouhani was speaking before a gathering of Iranian diplomats when he began to threaten the United States.
“Mr. Trump, don’t play with the lion’s tail, this would only lead to regret,” Rouhani stated.
The Iranian President continued his remarks where he made lip service about peace between America and the United States.
But Rouhani also threatened war with catastrophic consequences.
“America should know that peace with Iran is the mother of all peace, and war with Iran is the mother of all wars,” the Iranian President declared.
Rouhani also ranted against efforts by the United States government to back Iranians who are pushing to overthrow the nation’s Islamist government and replace it with a modern democracy.
“You are not in a position to incite the Iranian nation against Iran’s security and interests,” Rouhani concluded.
President Trump was having none of this.
Trump responded with an all caps tweet warning Rouhani that he would suffer historic consequences few have ever seen if he continued to threaten the United States:
To Iranian President Rouhani: NEVER, EVER THREATEN THE UNITED STATES AGAIN OR YOU WILL SUFFER CONSEQUENCES THE LIKES OF WHICH FEW THROUGHOUT HISTORY HAVE EVER SUFFERED BEFORE. WE ARE NO LONGER A COUNTRY THAT WILL STAND FOR YOUR DEMENTED WORDS OF VIOLENCE & DEATH. BE CAUTIOUS!
Iran is realizing it is a new day now that Donald Trump is President.
For eight years, former President Obama appeased the Islamist government in Tehran.
Obama agreed to the nuclear deal that allowed Iran to one day acquire a nuclear weapon.
The deal also included the Obama administration funneling billions of tax payer dollars to Iran’s government, which critics contend could have been used to fund terrorist activities.
And the Obama administration looked the other way as Hezbollah – a terrorist group supported by Iran – smuggled drugs into the United States.
Trump came into office promising to correct Obama’s errors.
And Trump made good on that pledge by withdrawing the United States from the disastrous Iranian nuclear deal back in May.
Trump’s decision infuriated the global community – which desperately wants to do business with Iran – but the President campaigned on putting America first.
Obama’s weakness enabled Iran to push toward a nuclear weapon and gain a foothold in Syria.
As President, Obama put America last.
Voters demanded a change and that is why they elected Donald Trump.
And as President, Trump has tossed aside Obama’s kid gloves and treated the Iranian government like the global threat that they are.
And that has led to Iran changing its behavior.
President Trump noted that under Obama in 2015 and 2016, there were a combined 58 instances of Iranian navy vessels harassing U.S. ships.
In 2018, that number is zero.
And it’s all because Trump drew a hard line with the Iranian government.
