Iranian Media Releases Threatening Picture of Trump Playing Golf – “Revenge is Inevitable”

The caption alongside the tweet calls for revenge on those who ordered the murder of General Qasem Soleimani, and says that it will be taken at the “right time.”

Iran’s Tasnim News Agency has tweeted a doctored image of Donald Trump playing golf in the shadow of an American B-2 strategic stealth bomber.

The Tweet reads “Revenge is inevitable,” a quote apparently taken from a remark made by Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei in December, when he vowed avenge the life of top military commander General Qasem Soleimani. 

Soleimani was killed in a drone attack on his convoy at Baghdad International Airport on 3 January 2020, on the order of US President Donald Trump. This led to a major escalation in tensions between Washington and Tehran. In retaliation, Iran attacked US military facilities in Iraq.

Many users reacted to the post by tagging Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey, implying that it goes against the platform’s hate speech policy:
