""Tuesday will be Power Plant Day, and Bridge Day, all wrapped up in one, in Iran. There will be nothing like it!!! Open the Fuckin' Strait, you crazy bastards, or you'll be living in Hell - JUST WATCH! Praise be to Allah.""
"The profane threat, which landed Easter morning a few hours after Pope Leo XIV issued a call for nations to choose peace, heightens earlier warnings from Trump over a vital shipping route Tehran has effectively closed since the United States and Israel launched their attacks on Iran about five weeks ago."
"Trump said in an address to the country last week that the U.S. military operation is 'nearing completion' and that he expects to wind down the war in a couple weeks."
"Even after the assassinations of senior Iranian leaders by Israel and the U.S., Iran's remaining leaders have been emboldened in their efforts to inflict further economic pain, pushing Tehran and Washington further apart in negotiations."
Trump escalated threats against Iran, warning of dire consequences if the Strait of Hormuz remains closed. He announced a significant military operation targeting Iran's infrastructure, emphasizing urgency through a profane message on social media. The closure of the strait has led to rising gas prices and increased political pressure on Trump. Despite mixed messages about U.S. involvement, he claims the military operation is nearing completion and expects the strait to reopen naturally after the conflict.
