Iran will deliver an unprecedented retaliation to any US attack, its mission to the United Nations said Wednesday, in response to a military threat from President Donald Trump. The Iranian mission, warning against US intervention, also referenced the United States’ casualties and expenditures in its past two wars. Trump on Wednesday renewed threats to attack Iran, saying “time is running out” to make a deal on nuclear weapons. They didn’t, and there was ‘Operation Midnight Hammer,’ a major destruction of Iran. The next attack will be far worse!”Trump has repeatedly left open the option of new military action against Iran after Washington joined Israel’s 12-day war in June aimed at degrading Iranian nuclear and ballistic missile programs.
