Trump death threat by hardline newspaper divides Iran
The Telegraph via Yahoo ^ | April 6, 2025 | Akhtar Makoii

An Iranian state newspaper has issued a death threat against Donald Trump, as fears grow of war between Iran and the US.

Kayhan newspaper is widely regarded as the voice of the most hardline factions in the country’s clerical establishment. Its editor is appointed directly by the supreme leader.

However, the death threat sparked outrage in Iran, with political figures warning that it gave the US president a pretext to strike their country.

In its “dialogue” column on Saturday, the newspaper wrote: “What’s up with this Donald Trump? Who does he think he is to threaten several countries every day? Threatening military attacks, sanctions, increasing tariffs…

“Any day now, in revenge for the blood of Martyr Soleimani, several bullets will be fired into Trump’s empty head and he’ll drink the cup of damnation.”

It is a pretext for war. I guess Iran didn’t want to lower the rhetoric.

I am quite sure, very sure, that the targets are already picked out, and Trump is just looking for an excuse to level them. I guarantee that if one US soldier is killed, all hell will break out and quickly.

Time to put this fellows apartment on the target list as well as the Newspaper office. Iran better hope to Hell no one shots Trump—they will be blamed and JD Vance will level Iran. Take out the Mullahs and place the Crown Prince back on the thrown as Shaw.

If Trump falls, JD Vance should name Laura Trump as his VP—the Liberals always wanted a woman as VP. Maybe its time to do what Jimmy Carter should have done long ago.

I still want to know who was behind the two assassination attempts on President Trump.

The 1st guy had encrypted phones or apps that was likely connected to overseas.

The 2nd guy has a recruiter for mercenaries in Ukraine.

I believe Ukraine was behind both attempts with a nod from the US government. However, Iran cannot be ruled out.
