Meanwhile, in a dizzying stream of social media posts since the US attacked Iran, Trump has variously called for a mass uprising , demanded the country’s unconditional surrender, claimed that he would be directly involved in choosing Iran’s next leader, suggested that Iran is being beaten to hell , and vowed to widen his target list.
