Former US Vice President Kamala Harris has accused President Donald Trump of threatening to commit war crimes over his ultimatum to Iran. Harris wrote on X:
“The President of the United States is threatening to commit war crimes and wipe out a ‘whole civilization’ — all because he started a disastrous war of his own making.”
Trump had warned that a “whole civilization will die tonight” if Tehran did not comply with his demands. Senator Mark Kelly called the proposed operation “illegal.”
Key Points:
- Harris says Trump’s recklessness is destroying America’s global standing.
- Kelly warns that destroying civilian infrastructure would violate the laws of armed conflict.
- Democrats are rallying against Trump’s military threats to Iran.
- Trump had threatened to “wipe out a whole civilization” in a Truth Social post.
- The former VP called for opposition to funding “this illegal war of choice.”
