Trump Threatens to 'Annihilate' Iran in U.N. Speech

In a U.N. General Assembly address, former President Trump threatened to 'annihilate' Iran, escalating rhetoric that could be construed as a war crime under international law. The threat marks a sharp escalation in U.S.-Iran tensions, though it remains unclear if it reflects official policy or campaign rhetoric. This development raises the risk of miscalculation and could impact oil markets and regional security.
