In a strongly worded statement, a former U.S. president has warned Iran of severe consequences if it fails to reach a diplomatic agreement, urging the country to reconsider its current path amid escalating tensions in the Middle East.
The statement, shared on social media, claimed that the United States had given Iran “chance after chance” to make a deal, but that negotiations had failed to yield results. The former leader emphasized that continued delays would lead to “much worse” outcomes, citing the advanced capabilities of the U.S. military and its close alliance with Israel.
“I told them it would be much worse than anything they know, anticipated, or were told,” the statement read. “The United States makes the best and most lethal military equipment anywhere in the world, BY FAR, and Israel has a lot of it, with much more to come — and they know how to use it.”
The remarks further alleged that certain Iranian hardliners who previously issued defiant statements are now dead, though no official confirmation or independent verification of these claims has been made.
“There has already been great death and destruction, but there is still time to make this slaughter… come to an end,” the statement continued. “Iran must make a deal before there is nothing left, and save what was once known as the Iranian Empire.”
The message ended with a direct appeal to Iranian leadership to stop the violence and return to the negotiating table: “No more death, no more destruction, JUST DO IT, BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE.”
The Iranian government has not issued an official response to the comments as of the time of this report. The international community, including observers from the United Nations and various diplomatic missions, continues to call for restraint and renewed diplomatic engagement to prevent further escalation in the region.
