Suleimani killing: Donald Trump defends threat to hit cultural sites in Iran
US president a vows ‘major retaliation’ if Tehran takes revenge over US killing of General Qassem Suleimani
Donald Trump has defended his threat to target Iranian cultural sites – widely seen as a war crime – if Tehran retaliates for the killing of General Qassem Suleimani.
On bellicose form, the US president also lashed out at Iraq following its parliament’s demand for American troops to be expelled from that country, and vowed to respond with crippling sanctions.
