Iran-Israel War: US Will Hit hard on you, Trump warns Iran not to attack U.S. Troops In The Middle East
Amid ongoing Iran-Israel war, The United States President Donald Trump has warned of severe retaliation if Iran attacked US soldiers in the Middle East.
It is fifth day into bloody conflict between Iran and Israel, and the rift have claimed many lives and properties worth billions destroyed in explosions.
“We’ll come down so hard if they do anything to our people,” Mr. Trump told journalists on Air Force One as he made a return to Washington from the G7 summit.
“The gloves are off. I think they know not to touch our troops.”
President Trump noted that his pre-timed departure from the G7 meeting has “nothing to do with” working on a cease deal between Iran and Israel but something “much bigger than that”, rebuffing French President Emmanuel Macron’s earlier claim.

He then posted on his personal social media platform, Truth Social: “I have not reached out to Iran for ‘Peace Talks’ in any way, shape, or form.
“If they want to talk, they know how to reach me. They should have taken the deal that was on the table.”
Iran has rejected the claims that the country is silently developing nuclear weapons, the assumption came after Israel started to strike Iran during early hours of Friday.
The air strikes, from both warring countries, have reported, by the two countries’ authorities, to have claimed more than 200 lives in Iran and more than 20 in Israel.

Is This The Beginning Of world War Three?
The obvious reality is that, as the leaders of most of the world’s leading industrial powers and democracies, popularly known as G7, meet in Canada, only a little they can do, or wish to do, to bring the Iran-Israel war to an end.
This is so because the war, though a bit dramatic but real in civilian toll, has so far been designed to aerial bombardment.
They have become an escalated and intense copy of the air strikes launched by the two nations in April and October, respectively, and it may only reduce when Israel considers it wise to do so. Though, the Israel Defence Force (IDF) says it has gained total control of the skies over Tehran.
