Trump opens door to regime change in Iran

Noman Sabit: President Trump on Sunday suggested regime change could be possible in Iran if the current one is “unable to MAKE IRAN GREAT AGAIN.” “It’s not politically correct to use the term, ‘Regime Change,’ but if the current Iranian Regime is unable to MAKE IRAN GREAT AGAIN, why wouldn’t there be a Regime change??? MIGA!!!” Trump said in a Truth Social post. Trump’s comments follow his announcement Saturday the United States had bombed three Iranian nuclear sites, stepping into a conflict between Iran and Israel that kicked off on June 13 amid already heightened tensions in the region over Israel’s war in Gaza and Iran’s nuclear capability. In a late Saturday address, the president said, “Iran’s key nuclear enrichment facilities have been completely and totally obliterated.” “Iran, the bully of the Middle East, must now make peace,” Trump added. The United States warned of a “heightened threat environment” following Trump’s ordering of strikes on the three Iranian nuclear sites. The Department of Homeland Security issued a National Terrorism Advisory System bulletin Sunday, giving a heads-up to the public to the possibility of cyberattacks done by those who back Iran or are affiliated with its government. Former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley on Wednesday pushed for the U.S. to not “engage in regime change in Iran.” “Our focus should only be on our national security. The Iranian regime has threatened the U.S. with nuclear production for years,” Haley, who served in the first term of the president, said. [Bangla Press is a global platform for free thought.
