Trump Vows More Powerful Sanctions Against Iran After Missile Attacks. by LordShiva97(m): 6:18pm On Jan 08, 2020
US President Donald Trump on Wednesday said the United States will immediately impose "additional punishing sanctions" on Iran following the attacks on US forces in Iraq.
He made the comments in his first televised remarks since Iran fired more than two dozen missiles at two Iraqi bases housing US troops.
Trump said there were no US or Iraqi casualties.
Iran "appears to be standing down" after the strikes, he said at the White House.


Tensions between the United States and Iran escalated dramatically last week after Trump ordered the killing of Iranian military commander Qassem Soleimani in Iraq.
Iran said Wednesday's attacks were in revenge for the killing of Soleimani. It warned the US against retaliating for the strikes.
Trump had previously threatened to "fully strike back" if Iran attacked any US citizen or site belonging to the US.
Trump on Wednesday said the US will continue to look at options to respond to the attacks, but did not elaborate. He said he will ask NATO "to become much more involved" in the Middle East.

I have always maintained that Donald Trump is a ballless coward who always resort to empty threats to intimidate his rivals. He threatened thunder and brimstone if Iran attacked any site, personnel or assests of the United States only to mellow down in the face of Iranian missile attacks, claiming that Tehran "appears to be standing down" and that his administration will look for other ways to respond to the attacks.
Utter bullocks!
This is what happens when you elect a leader who doesn't know anything about diplomacy and foreign policy and who thinks he can bully other sovereign states into subjugation with empty twitter outbursts and chest-beating.

Kudos to Iran for her strong resolution in the face of empty threats from the global bully.

The Impeachment humbled Trump!

He just wants his approval ratings to go high and he just got it from standing down!

Trump just got re-election very easily, Iran will cash out from high oil prices after planning with the US to strike empty bases to save face! Solemani died for nothing. WW3 don end, everybody go house wink
