TWISTED supporters of the Iranian regime have publicly threatened to assassinate Donald Trump.
Tensions in Tehran are rapidly escalating with Iran looking set to execute protesters as the US gears up to respond with strikes after pulling troops out of the Middle East.
A number of US Army personnel were asked to leave the Al Udeid military base in Qatar on Wednesday evening, according to sources.
The move has been seen as a potential indication that Trump will order airstrikes imminently after he vowed to punish Iran for executing protesters.
Iran’s regime and its supporters appear to be trying all they can to rile up the US in a test to Trump’s resolve.
Their latest sick attempt came through a chilling sign showing the infamous image of Trump after he was shot in the ear in 2024.
Brandished by a man on state TV at a pro-Iran rally, the picture had the words “this time it will not miss,” printed underneath.
In July, 2024, Trump survived an assassination attempt as he was speaking at a political rally in Butler, Pennsylvania.
Two died after Thomas Crooks fired eight bullets from an AR-15-style rifle from a nearby roof.
Trump was left bleeding from the side of his face as secret service agents pounced on the stage to protect the future president.
Snappers managed to get an iconic image of a bloodied Trump defiantly raising his fist in the air after he was hit.
The sickening reference to the shooting was proudly displayed at a state-organised event in Tehran on Wednesday.
Chants of “death to America!” were also heard at the rallies.
Iranian officials have set up counter rallies to the ongoing protests across the country targeting the Ayatollah and his mad Mullahs.
For 17 days now, brave Iranians have taken to the streets to try and force out their tyrannical government.
Thousands have been met by power-hungry security forces who have been directed by the Ayatollah to stop the riots by any means necessary.
The Sun revealed yesterday that up to 12,000 people are feared to have been killed during the archaic crackdown which has included “military-grade” weapons.
Armed guards have even been directing the demonstrators into “killing zones” where fellow soldiers are patrolling, terrified medics told The Times.
Thousands have also been arrested for their protests.
One of these Iranian critics is feared to be just hours from execution – despite Trump warning of “very strong action” if Tehran hangs protesters.
Freedom fighter Erfan Soltani, 26, is due to be among the first executed today following his arrest six days ago in Fardis, west of capital Tehran.
Gruesome public sentences were due to begin to deter further unrest – by stringing up those convicted from cranes on the back of trucks.
Iran’s bloodthirsty regime has vowed to fast-track more trials and executions amid fears of kangaroo court hearings.
Iran’s judiciary chief Gholamhossein Mohseni-Ejei declared the executions must be done as soon as possible.
The grim comments will be seen as a direct challenge to President Trump after he warned Iran to stop killing civilians.
Trump told CBS News on Tuesday: “When they start killing thousands of people, and now you’re telling me about hanging, we’ll see how that works out for them.
“It’s not going to work out good.”
Protesters pleaded with Trump to act today – as his top negotiator Steve Witkoff was revealed to have met exiled Iranian crown prince Reza Pahlavi in Washington.
Pahlavi wants to return to replace the mullahs with a monarchy which presides over democratic elections.
But protesters warned their momentum had stalled today and told The Sun it’s “now or never” to end 46 years of Islamist torment.
Britain must back freedom and stand with courageous rebels in Iran
THE SUN ON SUNDAY
YOU would think the attempts by thousands of freedom protesters to overthrow a brutal, murderous regime would warrant some serious support from any British government.
After all we are talking about a tyranny which has promoted terror across the globe and threatened the West with a far-reaching nuclear programme.
But, apart from Sir Keir Starmer’s mealy-mouthed joint European statement calling for “restraint”, the mass uprising against Iran’s blood-soaked supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has been received by near- silence from the Labour hierarchy.
Foreign Secretary Yvette Cooper seems to have lost her voice and the mass ranks of government MPs have hardly breathed a dicky bird.
Not a single Labour MP on the Foreign Affairs Select Committee has even so much as tweeted.
Compare that to the party’s fire and fury which blazed daily against Israel for its response to the worst antisemitic attack since the Holocaust.
Perhaps Labour fears upsetting its Muslim base?
The PM says Britain’s shared values include “common respect for freedom, democracy, liberty.’’
Yet for almost 50 years the monstrous mullahs of Iran have overseen a brutal Islamic Republic which uses lethal force against women who don’t wear head coverings.
They have obliterated the right to freedom of expression and anyone in a same-sex relationship could face the death penalty.
Donald Trump’s bold strike against the country’s nuclear programme last year dealt it a devastating political blow.
Now the crumbling economy could be the final nail in the coffin of 86-year-old Khamenei and his barbarous henchmen.
But as they see their powerbase crumbling, the regime’s leaders have arrested over 10,000 people and used military grade weapons against unarmed protesters.
It is time for the PM to show his principles count. He and his foreign secretary should throw their wholehearted support behind this uprising.
If Britain backs freedom, democracy and liberty it must stand united with the courageous rebels in Iran.
Trump’s fury at Tehran could soon result in US military operations in the Middle Eastern nation.
On Tuesday, Trump was briefed on attack plans to smash Iran from cyberattacks and psychological warfare to strikes on nuclear sites.
The US president reassured brave Iranians saying “help is on its way”.
Adding: “Make Iran great again, it was a great country until these monsters came in and took it over. And it’s all very fragile.”
Trump is likely to target Iran’s ballistic and nuclear missile sites in any planned attacks but could also directly strike the Ayatollah.
One Iranian who was able to send a message to loved ones pleaded: “Please help us. The situation here is horrific. It is a full-scale war.”
The UK Government said it is working with allies on further sanctions against the Iranian regime, the Prime Minister has said.
Speaking at the start of Prime Minister’s Questions, Sir Keir Starmer said: “Can I start by condemning in the strongest possible terms the sickening repression and murder of protesters in Iran.
“The contrast between the courage of the Iranian people and the brutality of their desperate regime has never been clearer.
“We’ve called out this brutality face to face, we’re working with allies on further sanctions and doing all we can to protect UK nationals.”
