President Donald Trump sensationally called for a regime change in Iran as he held crisis talks with UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer on Sunday.
The US president took to his Truth Social page to share updates about the country's military attacks on Iran, when he suggested that the current regime 'is unable to MAKE IRAN GREAT AGAIN.'
'Why wouldn't there be a regime change,' Trump asked, rhetorically - even as he and Starmer urged Ayatollah Khameini to 'return to the negotiating table as soon as possible.'
They made the urgent request after the US sent a fleet of B-2 bombers to 'obliterate' three Iranian enrichment sites on Saturday night.
The 'bunker buster' raid from Trump stunned the world and led the United Nations to hold an emergency meeting on Sunday afternoon, where officials said the US crippled Iran's crucial enrichment sites.
In response, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi warned that the nation 'have to respond' to Trump's aggression, and the US terror threat was ominously raised in anticipation of a tit-for-tat strike.
Earlier Sunday, Trump taunted Iran as he said his actions took 'the bomb right out of their hands', and praised the overnight strikes as a 'spectacular military success.'
The president spoke out as reports emerged that he attempted to arrange peace talks with Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei in Turkey a week before his strikes, but he was snubbed.
Trump even offered to fly to Turkey personally for face-to-face talks, but expressed frustration with Iran before he ultimately decided to launch on Saturday night.

Trump Sensibly Calls For Iranian Regime Change As He Holds Crisis Talks with UK Prime Minister

It’s the Daily Mail. Of course “sensationally,”. They overstate everything. I just read it for laughs sometimes.
That is not calling for “regime change.”
Apparently Khamenei isn't going quietly. We've been assured by the British tabloids (The Daily Mail, chief among them), that the Islamic government was falling apart under the pressure of Israeli air strikes and would be done by the end of last week.
More disinformation from "The Empire of Lies". Now Trump's decided to throw in his lot with the neocons. Big mistake.
Oh, calm down panikan, we just had one of the greatest M8litary moments in our history.
If he were gay, there'd be lots of flair, panache, and probably a dance accompaniment.
Lay off the sauce
I am 100 percent against regime change. If the Iranian people want to change their Govt they can do it, its none of our business what they do. I just wanted the nukes gone, if they want to keep their Ayotollah that’s their business not mine
It was one of the great military moments on US history.
“Sensationally called for” in first sentence followed by “suggested ... rhetorically asked” in the second sentence. IOW, lamestream leftist media hyperbol - aka bullsh*t.
Do you want a string of pearls to clutch with those panties?

His critics will jump all over him for this, but rhetorically asking “Why wouldn’t there be regime change?” is quite different than having a hands-on nation-building policy of which regime change is a part. He’s basically signaling to the Iranian people that now would be a good time to take care of biz. And he’s right
Prediction: There will be regime change in Israel before there is regime change in Iran.
I’m not so sure of that. I always felt like maybe the CIA did a color Revolution in Iran because the Shah was trying to get nuclear reactors. I could see them talking Carter into that, thinking the Students might be easier to deal with. Then the strategy backfired spectacularly. The world has been paying for it ever since.
