President Donald Trump responded to a report from Sunday that indicated that the Islamic Republic of Iran was weighing plans to assassinate a U.S. ambassador by stating that any attack by Iran would be met with a response “1,000 times greater in magnitude.”

“According to press reports, Iran may be planning an assassination, or other attack, against the United States in retaliation for the killing of terrorist leader Soleimani, which was carried out for his planning a future attack, murdering U.S. Troops, and the death & suffering caused over so many years,” Trump tweeted. “Any attack by Iran, in any form, against the United States will be met with an attack on Iran that will be 1,000 times greater in magnitude!”
