Trump Gives Iran 48 Hours To Reach Deal Or Face “Hell”

United States President Donald Trump yesterday told the Iranian regime that “time is running out” and that it must make a deal or open the crucial Strait of Hormuz to shipping or face “hell,” renewing an earlier threat in which he vowed to send Iran “back to the stone ages.”

“Remember when I gave Iran ten days to make a deal or open up the hormuz strait. Time is running out – 48 hours before all Hell will reign down on them. Glory be to GOD!,” he wrote on his Truth Social platform.

The remarks came as US forces searched for a missing crew member after an F-15E jet fighter was shot down a day earlier over Iran. One crew member has been rescued, US officials said.

Trump had previously set deadlines for Iran to make a deal or to open the Strait of Hormuz, through which some 20 percent of global oil and natural gas supplies pass. Tehran has effectively blocked the passage, leading to a worldwide energy crisis.

On March 30, Trump said, “If for any reason a deal is not shortly reached” by April 6. US forces will react “ by blowing up and completely obliterating all of their Electric Generating Plants, Oil Wells and Kharg Island (and possibly all desalinization plants!)”

Trump on March 21 originally gave Tehran a 48-hour deadline, but then extended it, saying he wanted to give talks a chance to succeed.
