Trump to attack Iran with trillion dollar military equipment

Trump - Hassan Trump - Hassan

US President, Donald Trump has warned that if Iran attacks an American base or citizen, they would retaliate with some of the military equipment they acquired with trillions of dollars.

The president disclosed this in the heat of rhetorics following a US airstrike which killed General Qassim Soleimani of Iran.

Trump tweeted: "The United States just spent Two Trillion Dollars on Military Equipment. We are the biggest and by far the BEST in the World! If Iran attacks an American Base, or any American, we will be sending some of that brand new beautiful equipment their way...and without hesitation!"

He also revealed that the strategy the US will deploy in the face of an Iranian attack will avenge the 52 American hostages taken by Iran years ago.

"We have ... targeted 52 Iranian sites (representing the 52 American hostages taken by Iran many years ago), some at a very high level & important to Iran & the Iranian culture" and "if Iran strikes any Americans, or American assets... Iran itself, WILL BE HIT VERY FAST AND VERY HARD", he wrote.

He added: "They attacked us, & we hit back. If they attack again, which I would strongly advise them not to do, we will hit them harder than they have ever been hit before!"
