Trump warns 'a whole civilization will die tonight' in post aimed at Iran

A post on President Donald Trump's @realDonaldTrump account warned that "a whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again." Juice Unlocked shared a screenshot of the message on the morning of April 7, 2026.

Juice Unlocked's caption said the warning applied if a deal with Iran was not reached. The message itself does not mention a deal, but it ends with "God Bless the Great People of Iran!"

What the post says

"I don't want that to happen, but it probably will," the post reads. It goes on to say that "now that we have Complete and Total Regime Change, where different, smarter, and less radicalized minds prevail, maybe something revolutionarily wonderful can happen."

"We will find out tonight," the post says, calling it "one of the most important moments in the long and complex history of the World." It adds that "47 years of extortion, corruption, and death, will finally end."

What we could not confirm
