Trump left orders to bomb Iran 'at levels that they've never seen before' if he's assassinated. President Donald Trump has ordered a massive retaliatory attack on Iran in the event Tehran succeeds in assassinating him, the New York Post reported Friday. "I've been on their list for a long time. That's what we're dealing with," Trump told the newspaper. "… The only thing is, I've left instructions — if anything happens, to just literally bomb them at levels that they've never seen before." Asked about reports that Israel had recently provided Washington with intelligence about a new Iranian plot against him, Trump indicated that he did not believe the information pointed to a newly developed plan, saying Tehran had sought to kill him for years. Earlier this week it emerged that Israel shared intelligence with the United States indicating that Iran sought to assassinate Trump. Details of the plot have not been made public. Iran has repeatedly threatened retaliation over the January 2020 US drone strike that killed Quds Force commander Qasem Soleimani in Baghdad, an operation ordered by Trump during his first term.
