Trump is talking about committing the most horrendous act any American president has ever committed, a crime against humanity on the scale of Hitler. Iran has a population of 93 millions people, and he is talking about destroying the whole nation, or at best destroying infrastructure,desalination plants and power plants that are all keeping the population alive. It will be a humanitarian disaster that will spill over to neighboring nations.
