On Wednesday (July 15), the U.S. launched a fresh set of strikes on Iran as a billboard in Tehran threatened to “kill” President Donald Trump, even showing him in a coffin. The new strikes arrived as President Trump warned Tehran it “better behave” after Iranian officials went back on its word to keep the peace during negotiations.
Early Wednesday, a billboard was spotted in Enghelab Square in central Tehran. It showed President Trump’s body, dressed in a suit, peeking out from an open black coffin. The depiction showed Trump with his eyes and mouth closed and his hair messy.
It also showed his fingers locked and resting onto of his red tie onto of his protruding belly. At the end of the coffin, his feet, in black dress shoes, pointed straight up. White graffiti written across the coffin included words, “We Will Kill Trump,” in both English and Persian.
Iran Seemingly Continues To Avenge Ayatollah Ali Khamenei With New Billboard Threatening To ‘Kill Donald Trump’
According to The New York Times, the writing resembled a blackboard wall where those mourning Iran’s fallen supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, could write messages in chalk.
As we previously shared, the United States and Israel confirmed they launched a major military operation against Iran back on February 28. During the move — labeled operation “Epic Fury” — Khamenei perished. The deadly operation followed weeks of tension and repeated warnings from President Trump over Iran’s nuclear program.
Additionally, the NY Times reports that the graffiti also says, “In memory of Minab’s children,” referencing the city in Southern Iran where an air strike hit an elementary school on February 28. Furthermore, the NY Times, in recent weeks, Iran has been allegedly seeking vengeance on behalf of Khamenei. Seemingly, part of that revenge is now including threats to Trump via this billboard.
Additionally, the NY Times reports, “the threatening imagery is nothing new.” The NY Times reported that back in January, a billboard depicted a strike on an American warship. It showed a bloody wake resembling the stripes of the American flag.
