Trump makes foul-mouthed threat to Iran after U.S. airman rescued

Washington –

U.S. President Donald Trump made an expletive-filled threat Sunday to destroy Iran’s vital civilian infrastructure, demanding Tehran bow to his demands for a deal to reopen the Gulf to shipping and end the Middle East war.

As Christians marked Easter, the U.S. leader revived warnings of air strikes on Iranian power plants and bridges, after celebrating the rescue of a wounded airman whose F-15 fighter jet went down inside Iran.

Iranian images showed wreckage of several aircraft, but Tehran did not deny U.S. forces rescued the officer, who sheltered in a mountainous area while American special forces and Iranian troops raced to find him.
