Iran lawmaker says 'Trump’s own palace' could be hit in war
An Iranian lawmaker said Iran could target the United States itself in the event of war and warned that even “Trump’s own palace” could be hit.
Amir Hayat Moghaddam, a member of parliament’s national security and foreign policy commission, told Didban Iran that while Tehran’s strategy was not to start a war, it was fully prepared to respond if attacked.
“If the Americans attack, we will immediately give a crushing response,” he said, adding that Iran could sink a US warship in the Sea of Oman, strike US bases in the region and harm American forces “whether soldier, officer or general.”
“In case of war, our attacks may not remain limited to the Middle East. We can target America itself … You might one day see Trump’s own palace hit,” he said.
