"Bombs will be falling everywhere": Trump's unusual speech to announce the attack on Iran

BarcelonaIn an unusual speech – without improvisation, sticking completely to the prepared text – Donald Trump announced the attack against Iran early this morning.The US president, who appeared wearing a gray cap with the letters USA Surrounded by American flags, he justified the operation as necessary for the security of the United States and the Middle East. At the end of the eight-minute speech, he addressed the Iranian people directly, urging them to rise up against the ayatollahs' regime.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu used a similar tone: he also released a video justifying the attack on Tehran and encouraging Iranians to seize the opportunity to overthrow the regime. "This is your chance, take your destiny into your own hands," Netanyahu said, adding, directly in English,Help has arrived(The help has arrived), echoing the message that his great ally, Trump, used to address the Iranians in January, on the occasion of the mass demonstrations in the country.

spiral of uncertainty and chaos.

"Our objective is to defend the American people by eliminating imminent threats from the Iranian regime, a malevolent group comprised of very tough and terrible people. Their menacing activities directly endanger the United States, our troops, our overseas bases, and our allies around the world. For 47 years, the Iranian regime has called bloodshed and mass murder directed against the United States, our troops, and innocent people in many, many countries."

Remembrance for October 7th and silence on Gaza

"From Lebanon to Yemen, and from Syria to Iraq, the regime has armed, trained, and funded terrorist militias that have drenched the land in blood and guts. And it was an Iranian ally, Hamas, that launched the monstrous October 7 attacks against Israel, in which Americans assisted, and took 12 of our citizens hostage. It was brutal, something the world had never seen."

The alleged nuclear threat

"Iran is the world's leading state sponsor of terrorism, and recently killed tens of thousands of its own citizens in the streets as they protested. It has always been the policy of the United States, and particularly of my administration, that this terrorist regime should never be allowed to possess a nuclear weapon. I will say it again: they will never be able to possess a nuclear weapon. Following last year's Operation Mars, which targeted Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan, we warned them against resuming their malicious pursuit of nuclear weapons and repeatedly attempted to reach an agreement.

The US military force

"This regime will soon learn that no one should challenge the strength and power of the United States armed forces. I built and rebuilt our military in my first administration, and there is no army in the world even close to its power, strength, or sophistication. Iran is armed with nuclear weapons. We ask God to protect all our heroes who are in danger, and we trust that, with His help, the men and women of the armed forces will win.

Message to the Ayatollahs"

"To the members of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, the armed forces, and the entire police force, I say tonight that you must lay down your weapons and you will have complete immunity, or alternatively, you will face certain death. So put down your weapons. You will be treated fairly with full immunity."

Appeal to the Iranian People

"Finally, to the great and proud people of Iran, I say to you tonight that the hour of freedom is near. Stay indoors. Do not leave your house. It is very dangerous outside. Bombs will fall everywhere. When we are finished, take control of your government. It will be yours. This will probably be the only one. America has had freedom, but never got it. No president was willing to do what I am willing to do tonight. To act."
