Trump threatens Iranian civilization as experts predict market-shaking escalation

Donald Trump has pushed the geopolitical envelope to its absolute breaking point. By threatening that a "whole civilization will die tonight," he has shifted from standard diplomatic pressure to rhetoric that implies total annihilation. This isn't just a tough-on-defense stance; it is a calculated, albeit unhinged, attempt to force

Donald Trump

avoids a nuclear catastrophe tonight, the incremental expansion of this war drags the U.S. into a conflict that is becoming impossible to exit. We are watching the tide pull the world into a storm it cannot outswim.
