Iran likely to retaliate to Trump's 'bluster and threats' | Sky News AustraliaSenior Fellow from the Cato Institute Douglas Bandow says it is difficult to understand 'what is real and what is just bluster' when it comes to US President Donald Trump. \n\nIt comes after Mr Trump said the US may act 'disproportionately' if Iran attacks any American 'person or target' in revenge for the killing of Major General Qassem Soleimani.\n\nThe US president tweeted the comments after Tehran vowed to avenge the death of its top general, who died in a US drone strike. \n\n'Understanding what is real and what is just bluster is very hard with this president,' Mr Bandow told Sky News.\n\n'He blusters, he threatens, that's the way he operates'. \n\nMr Bandow said he believed it is not in either American or Middle Eastern interests for a war to break out in the region. \n\nHe also said he thought the president didn't want a war with Iran to eventuate, although he did believe there are some 'influential' people in Washington who may be 'pushing' for one to develop.\n\nImage: Getty \n No shit. Soleimani wasn't just a 'Govt Offical' he was a Major general. He fought frontline with his men. (Is Doug Bandow still doing cash for comment? Or only for the Dems?)
