Trump delivers a speech in which he goes through all the attacks Iran has carried out against the United States ever since the revolution in 1979. It began with the seizure of Americans at the embassy, where they were held for 444 days. Trump states that this regime can never be allowed to possess nuclear weapons. Therefore the United States and Israel carried out the bombing operation called Midnight Hammer last year. Instead of suspending the programme, Iran has continued with enrichment and with the development of long-range missiles.

– For 47 years the regime has chanted “Death to America!”

He mentions the bombing of the Marine barracks in Lebanon, which cost 243 soldiers their lives. Iran was probably involved in the attack on the USS “Cole” and in attacks on American soldiers in Iraq. General Soleimani was involved in developing the so-called IEDs, buried roadside bombs that killed a large number of American soldiers. Trump eliminated Soleimani at the airport in Baghdad. Iran also had at least a finger in the pie in the attack on Israel on 7 October 2023.

The cup is full. Consider how dangerous this regime will be if it were to obtain nuclear weapons, says Trump. – We shall crush their missile programme, says Trump. He states that they will also destroy Iran’s navy.

What he is saying is that the United States will eradicate the regime’s military power.

– The hour of freedom is striking for the Iranians, says Trump. – For many years the Iranians have asked the United States for help, but no president has wished to assist. Now the time has come. When we are finished, you must seize the opportunity to shape your own future, says Trump.

It is apparent that the objective is regime change.
