President Donald Trump claimed Iran posed an “imminent” threat to the US and its allies as he joined Israel in launching an operation to topple the Iranian regime. Trump said Saturday that Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei was killed, although Tehran said he was alive and that its government continued to function.
Iran responded with attacks on US bases, Israel, and targets across the Middle East. Trump announced the major military action, which so far has relied on US air and naval power, in a video posted to his social media account at 2:30 a.m. ET in which he wears a white USA ball cap. Bracing Americans for the likelihood of US casualties, Trump also warned that Iranian forces will be killed unless they lay down weapons. Here are his remarks, annotated with context: from 2025 said that Iran could develop a ‘militarily-viable’ intercontinental ballistic missile by 2035 ‘should Tehran decide to pursue the capability.’”)
