The government responded with violent crackdowns. Trump later used that unrest as part of his justification for military action, telling the Iranian people in a video message, \u201cThe country will be yours to take.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-1\">\n<div data-type=\"_mgwidget\" data-widget-id=\"1981626\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-1\">\n<div data-type=\"_mgwidget\" data-widget-id=\"1938507\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Public opinion in the United States appears divided, though the article says most Americans do not support military action. Citing a CNN poll, it says 59% disapproved of the first strikes, while 41% approved. Many also feared the conflict could turn into a longer war, and only a small minority supported sending US ground troops into Iran.<\/p>\n<p>The same report says many Americans do not fully trust Trump\u2019s handling of the crisis. A majority believed he should seek congressional approval before any further military action, and only a small percentage felt enough diplomatic effort had been made before the strikes.<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-3\"><\/div>\n<p>Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reportedly described the attack as both defensive and preventive, saying the goal was to stop Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon.

Still, analysts war:ned that Iran or its allied networks could retaliate against American targets in the region or beyond.<\/p>\n<p>The article also claims Iran launched retaliatory strikes within days, ki:lling at least 18 people, including four US service members.<\/p>\n<p>The most striking part of the report is Trump\u2019s earlier statement about an assassination attempt. In February 2025, he said that if Iran ever tried to kill him, the response would be total destruction.<\/p>\n<p>According to the article, Trump said: if Iran did that, \u201cthey would be obliterated,\u201d and that he had already \u201cleft instructions\u201d to make sure of it.<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-2\"><\/div>\n<p>At the time, those comments received limited attention. But after the reported escalation in conflict, they resurfaced and are now being seen as a sign of the hardline approach behind Trump\u2019s strategy toward Iran.<\/p>\n<p>Whether those instructions would ever be used is unknown.
