The cultural threat aside(which is clearly wrong) I’ll wager he’s got his point across rather more directly than his predecessors and the Iranians will certainly have food for thought and will be a tad more reluctant than usual to react, despite their bluster.

Iran has had an almost free reign from Obama who rather than challenge them simply threw money at them to make them happy.

Trump is a different kettle of fish.

You have basically two choices with terrorists.

Show them you mean business or flounce about around the skirt edges asking nicely for them to not kill any innocent people.

There comes a point when skirt flouncing doesn’t cut it any more.

And he uses twit face etc because that’s what he has always done, his base are Twitter people and the MSM are biased against him and won’t report objectively.

I seriously don’t think Iran has the wherewithal to take Trump on
Unless they have nuclear capability.
Without wishing to stir the hornets nest the response thus far has been muted, despite the rhetoric.
Guess they’re having second thoughts after all....
Iran tends to proceed by guile and method (most unlike the current US administration I’m afraid).
Their strategy the last few years appears to have been to suck the US into conflicts which are expensive and unpopular at home. Then court favour with the ME’s western allies, moving into the void.
I’d be surprised if they do anything spectacular in retaliation.
Now you know what Khan's London has become. Not even Pakistan can conjure up this sort of "support" so quickly.

""The Islamic Centre of England in Maida Vale, Kilburn, London, has held a mass memorial for slain Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps general Qasem Soleimani. The message of condolence praised Soleimani as a man “consistently present on the battlefield with the devils and the diabolic powers of the world” who “did not stop his struggle for one moment”.
“May God bless Haj Ghasem!” it declared. “On the occasion of his martyrdom and that of his entourage, especially the great mujahid of Islam the honourable Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis, I offer my condolences and my congratulations to the Imam al-Mahdi (a). I also extend my condolences to the great leader of Iran, Aytollah Khamenei, to the family members of the martyrs, and to the admirable nations of Iran and Iraq,” it concluded, with the director signing off as the “Representative of Ayatollah al- Uzma Sayyid Ali Khamenei (May Allah give him long life)”. Mourners “squeezed” into the Islamic Centre to attend the memorial for Soleimani and his entourage, according to a MailOnline report, accompanied by pictures of large crowds gathered both within and without the building and and an officiant standing behind a portrait of the commander and Al-Muhandis.""

There's nice.
No surprise there Togo. I know the saying goes “keep your enemies close” but this is ridiculous.
AOGent has just opened a thread on this in news. They will all soon be piling in on him of course.

No doubt TOGO but AOG can handle his detractors with a firm grip :0)
//Guess they’re having second thoughts after all..//

So they are......if they actually do have the sense that they hide so well.
Trump on twitter.....
""The United States just spent Two Trillion Dollars on Military Equipment. We are the biggest and by far the BEST in the World! If Iran attacks an American Base, or any American, we will be sending some of that brand new beautiful equipment their way...and without hesitation!""

You know what.....I think he means it. Do You?

Yes I do
And so do I.
President Merkin Muffley returns with a vengeance. God help us all.
Iran is very good on cyber warfare. Watch out for a few attacks on Wall Street institutions.
//President Merkin Muffley returns with a vengeance//

We'll meet again, don't know where, don't know when...

Yes, I do. I know whose side I'm on.
Now they know that anyone can be touched I doubt if they are lining up for Solemani`s job.
The Iran 'mafia' regime is actually on its last legs, ignore the films of 'outraged' hundreds, the majority of the population ( c. 80 million) want a new order;

//the majority of the population ( c. 80 million) want a new order; //

I wouldn't bet on it.
