“The current set of options even includes the potential for American forces to carry out raids on sites inside Iran, and it comes in a different context, now that the protests have been brutally quashed, at least for the time being.”  nytimes.com/2026/01/29/us/tr…

While speaking earlier to reporters, President Donald J. Trump, for the first time, stated that thousands of protesters had been killed during the recent anti-government demonstrations in Iran.

Reporter: “Have you had any conversations with Iran in the last few days and are you planning on it?”

Trump: “I have had and I am planning on it, yeah. We have a lot of very big, very powerful ships sailing to Iran right now and it would be great if we didn’t have to use them.”

Reporter: “Can you say what the message was that you shared with Iran?”

Trump: “Well, I told them two things: Number one, no nuclear. And number two, stop killing protesters. They’re killing them by the thousands. You know, I stopped 837 hangings two weeks ago. But they’re going to have to do something. Nobody’s seen anything like it.”
