Donald Trump was on Twitter in the middle of the night again, posting an all-caps threat to Iranian President Hassan Rouhani. Earlier on Sunday Rouhani warned Trump not to get in a conflict with his country, saying a confrontation with the Islamic republic would be the “mother of all wars”.
“Do not play with the lion’s tail or else you will regret it,” Rouhani said on Sunday, reiterating that the US cannot prevent it from exporting its crude oil to the international market.
“Peace with Iran would be the mother of all peace and war with Iran would be the mother of all wars,” he said in a televised speech in Iran’s capital, Tehran. Rouhani last week said that Iran may block regional oil exports if its own sales are halted following the US’ withdrawal from a 2015 nuclear deal signed with world powers.
Shortly before midnight last night Trump tweeted this:
“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!”
