To bring in the New World Order, Trump must go all in on the Mullahs, Khamenei must be taken out, same way he took out Marduro. We have had enough of Ayatollah’s threats, now with coordination of Israel, the United States can wipe these belligerent MoFos from the face of the earth. They have been sponsoring terrorism with Russia throughout the world. The Iranian people are behind the U.S., they can’t afford to lose this opportunity now.
Keane warns Iranian regime to take Trump ‘dead serious’ on protest killing threat amid ongoing demonstrations
Retired general says Iran at ‘weakest point’ in 45 years as anti-regime demonstrations enter second week

Fox News senior strategic analyst Jack Keane, a retired general, gave a grave assessment of the state of the Iranian regime amid its crackdown on anti-government protests and hinted at what could come next Friday on “Special Report.”
“If I was in the Iranian regime, I would take President Trump dead serious here,” Keane warned.
On Friday, President Donald Trump warned in a Truth Social post that the U.S. is “locked and loaded and ready to go” if the Iranian regime shoots and kills protesters.
His message comes as anti-regime demonstrations enter their second week and at least 44 protesters have been killed by Iranian security, according to the National Council of Resistance of Iran.

Keane declared the Iranian regime is at its “weakest point” in 45 years with “no prospect of recovering.”
Noting Trump’s warning under “no uncertain terms,” Keanelisted other key differences about the anti-regime protests that stood out to him from previous demonstrations in Iran.

“Politically, [the Iranian regime] can’t meet the social and political and economic aspirations of the people. Economically, they’re in the tank, to be sure, and with no prospect of recovering,” Keane added.

“And, militarily, they just lost a war. They’ve lost their platform in Syria. Their proxies are, by and large, decapitated and almost eliminated, to be sure,” he added. “The result of all of that is they are in a fundamentally weak position, and it’s serious in terms of the regime.”
