US-Iran War: US President Donald Trump Expresses His Disappointment with NATO

The US Supreme Court appeared inclined on Wednesday (April 1) to reject Donald Trump’s unprecedented attempt to end birthright citizenship, following a high-profile hearing attended by the president himself. The case represents a central element of Trump’s broader immigration agenda, and his presence at oral arguments marked a rare moment for a sitting president. Trump left after Solicitor General John Sauer presented the administration’s arguments, and did not stay for American Civil Liberties Union attorney Cecillia Wang, who defended birthright citizenship.&nbsp;"We are the only Country in the World STUPID enough to allow 'Birthright' Citizenship!" Trump said in a social media post after returning to the White House. Trump had signed an executive order at the start of his second term declaring that children born in the U.S. to undocumented immigrants or temporary visa holders would not automatically receive citizenship. Lower courts blocked the order, citing the Citizenship Clause of the 14th Amendment, which guarantees citizenship to nearly all individuals born on US soil.&nbsp;Sauer argued before the court that "unrestricted birthright citizenship contradicts the practice of the overwhelming majority of modern nations" and “demeans the priceless and profound gift of American citizenship.” "It operates as a powerful pull factor for illegal immigration and rewards illegal aliens who not only violate the immigration laws but also jump in front of those who follow the rules," he said.&nbsp;Also Read: <a href="https://www.wionews.com/world/us-lifts-sanctions-on-venezuela-s-interim-leader-delcy-rodriguez-1775089715878">US lifts sanctions on Venezuela’s interim leader Delcy Rodriguez</a>&nbsp;He also raised concerns about "birth tourism," where individuals travel to the US specifically to give birth. However, both liberal and several conservative justices expressed doubts about the administration’s reasoning. Chief Justice John Roberts questioned the relevance of such arguments. "We're in a new world now," the solicitor general said, “where eight billion people are one plane ride away from having a child who's a US citizen.” "Well, it's a new world. It's the same constitution," Roberts replied.&nbsp;The 14th Amendment states that "All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States." Roberts noted that the administration appeared to be attempting to broaden exceptions to include undocumented immigrants, calling the approach “quirky.” Justice Brett Kavanaugh questioned the relevance of comparing U.S. law to policies in other countries. "We try to interpret American law with American precedent based on American history," Kavanaugh said. "Why should we be thinking about...other countries? I'm not seeing the relevance as a legal, constitutional interpretive matter."&nbsp;Justice Neil Gorsuch also raised historical concerns, noting that the concept of illegal immigration did not exist when the amendment was adopted in 1868. "If somebody showed up here in 1868 and established domicile, that was perfectly fine," Gorsuch said. “And so why wouldn't we...come to the conclusion that the fact that someone might be illegal is immaterial?” Wang argued that overturning birthright citizenship would jeopardize millions of Americans’ legal status. "Ask any American what our citizenship rule is, and they'll tell you, everyone born here is a citizen alike," Wang said. "That rule was enshrined in the 14th Amendment to put it out of the reach of any government official to destroy."&nbsp;<a href="https://www.wionews.com/videos/iran-bombards-u-s-targets-as-israeli-airstrikes-rattle-tehran-1775065488091/embed">https://www.wionews.com/videos/iran-bombards-u-s-targets-as-israeli-airstrikes-rattle-tehran-1775065488091/embed</a>&nbsp;The administration contends that the amendment, originally passed after the Civil War to secure rights for formerly enslaved people, does not apply to children of undocumented migrants or temporary residents.

Iranian Parliament speaker Mohammad Ghalibaf has slammed the US President Donald Trump for passing on “wishes” as “news”, at the same time planning an attack against Iran. He warned that the so-called “news” is just a “pump” and "dump" scheme and dismissed the US diplomatic signals as “fake news”"Heads-up: Pre-market so-called "news" or "Truth" is often just a setup for profit-taking. Basically, it's a reverse indicator. Do the opposite: If they pump it, short it. If they dump it, go long. See something tomorrow? You know the drill," wrote Ghalibaf in a post on XHe warned Washington against any escalation, claiming it would be a ‘big mistake’, and threatened that “if they hit one”, they would be hit with several. This comes as a response to US President Donald Trump's claim that Ghalibaf was the “insider” figure who was involved in negotiations with the US.&nbsp;"Iran's enemies pass off their wishes as ‘news’ while simultaneously threatening our nation—they're dead wrong.

On March 29, ISNA reported, quoting Ghalibaf as saying that Iranian forces are on alert for a potential US ground operation and that the United States and its regional partners would face severe consequences if they proceeded. He also mocked the US President Donald Trump for failing to persuade European countries to join the war against Iran. He further added that the situation in the Strait of Hormuz will not return to the pre-war situation.&nbsp;On the other hand, White House Spokesperson Karoline Leavitt said that US President Donald Trump was confident that the new regime in Iran is “more reasonable” and has enough grip on power.&nbsp;"When the President says "more reasonable," again, these folks are appearing more reasonable behind the scenes privately in these conversations than perhaps some of the previous leaders who are now no longer on planet Earth because they lied to the United States and they strung us along in negotiations, and that was unacceptable to the President, which is why many of the previous leaders were killed," said Leavitt in a press briefing on Monday, March 30. &nbsp;&nbsp;

Iran’s Mohammad Ghalibaf accuses Trump of spreading “fake news” and warns of retaliation, as tensions escalate between Washington and Tehran.

Iranian Parliament speaker Mohammad Ghalibaf has slammed the US President Donald Trump for passing on “wishes” as “news”, at the same time planning an attack against Iran. He warned that the so-called “news” is just a “pump” and "dump" scheme and dismissed the US diplomatic signals as “fake news” "Heads-up: Pre-market so-called "news" or "Truth" is often just a setup for profit-taking. Basically, it's a reverse indicator. Do the opposite: If they pump it, short it. If they dump it, go long. See something tomorrow? You know the drill," wrote Ghalibaf in a post on X He warned Washington against any escalation, claiming it would be a ‘big mistake’, and threatened that “if they hit one”, they would be hit with several. This comes as a response to US President Donald Trump's claim that Ghalibaf was the “insider” figure who was involved in negotiations with the US. "Iran's enemies pass off their wishes as ‘news’ while simultaneously threatening our nation—they're dead wrong. If they strike once, they'll get hit several times back."

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio has said that communication with Iran is ongoing, primarily through intermediaries, with some level of direct contact also taking place.

Rubio outlined Washington’s war objectives, including degrading Iran’s military capabilities, particularly its missile, naval and air power, while avoiding a ground invasion.

He also issued a strong warning on the Strait of Hormuz, saying the key global shipping route will reopen “one way or another,” either through Iranian compliance or coordinated international action.

The statement comes amid continued disruption in the strait and rising global concern over energy supplies, with the waterway remaining central to the ongoing conflict.

US-Iran War | Report: Trump Open To Ending War Without Reopening Strait of Hormuz

White House spokesperson Karoline Leavitt has backed the idea that US President Donald Trump might be “interested” in asking the Gulf Countries to cover the cost of the US-Israel war on Iran.

Gulf countries, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates are asking the US President Donald Trump to continue its offensive operation against Tehran until its military capability is completely reduced. According to them, the military capability of Iran has not been weakened enough by the month-long US-led bombing. According to AP reports, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait and Bahrain have urged Trump in private conversations to continue the bombing of Iran until regime change or a significant change in Iran's behaviour. According to the US's traditional allies, this offers a historic opportunity to cripple the Clerical rule of Iran. The report suggests that these officials spoke in condition of anonymity.&nbsp;&nbsp;While Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, de facto leader of Saudi Arabia, is seeking to decrease Iran's ballistic missile capability, the clerical regime. It serves the interests of the Kingdom in the region. On the other hand, it remains wary of the attacks on its energy infrastructure. “Iran respects the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and considers it a brotherly nation,” Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi wrote on X, along with a picture of a damaged American aircraft at a Saudi air base. According to the reports The UAE is perhaps the most hawkish country that is pushing for a ground invasion; Kuwait and Bahrain also favour these options.&nbsp;Also Read: <a href="https://www.wionews.com/world/mohamad-safa-un-resignation-nuclear-threat-iran-allegations-1774872383427">‘Nuclear winter’ warning: UN diplomat steps down, cites safety concerns</a><h2>Gulf countries are hesitant about the US's capability to defend the empire</h2>Interestingly, Gulf Countries, at the start of the US-Israel strike on Iran, had complained about the lack of information and time for preparations.

While Trump himself is sending out dubious messages, Iran's leadership and military capability are “decimated”, and it is willing to settle. At the same time, he is also threatening to attack the country if it does not agree on a deal. Trump is finding it hard to rally support domestically, as almost 3000 are dead and oil prices have reached around $115 per barrel.None of the Gulf states wanted the war with Iran in the first place. Just days before it began, they were flying officials to Washington in a last-ditched attempt to prevent it. Something that was clearly ignored. After the bombing began, reports emerged that Qatar's stockpile of Patriot interceptor missiles could last as little as 4 days. Yet, America refused to help restock them“Saudi Arabia’s fighting back hard. Qatar is fighting back. UAE is fighting back. Kuwait’s fighting back. Bahrain’s fighting back,” said Trump on Sunday aboard Air Force One. Gulf countries are stuck in a situation where they want to confront the Clerical Government in Iran, but they are not confident about the US empire and its commitment to defending them. Meanwhile, the Gulf states are unified in calling for a de-escalation of the Middle East war, says Qatar, as Tehran launched new strikes against its neighbours. "Our understanding is that there is a very unified position in the Gulf on calling for the de-escalation and an end to the war," Qatar's foreign ministry spokesman Majed al-Ansari told a regular news briefing.<h2>&nbsp;</h2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

Or at minimum, a reminder that his approach to Iran hasn't fundamentally changed in nearly four decades.It comes as in a separate Truth Social post, the POTUS said negotiations were underway with what he described as a "more reasonable" faction within Iran's new leadership, and that progress toward ending military operations had been made. However, the olive branch came wrapped in a threat.If a deal isn't reached shortly, and if the Strait of Hormuz isn't reopened, Trump said the US would "blow up and completely obliterate" Iran's electrical generating plants, oil wells, and Kharg Island — the country's main crude export hub. "We will conclude our lovely ‘stay’ in Iran by blowing up and completely obliterating all of their electric generating plants, oil wells and Kharg Island," he said.Disclaimer: WION takes utmost care to accurately and responsibly report ongoing conflicts in West Asia involving Israel, Iran, US, Gulf nations and non-state actors like Hezbollah, Hamas, Houthis, Islamic State, and others.

Rubio says US war in Iran has 'nothing to do with leadership' despite Trump's 'regime change' claims

#Gravitas U.S. President Donald Trump is now threatening to hit Iran where it hurts the most, water. He has openly warned that if Tehran refuses a ceasefire and fails to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, American forces could target and destroy Iran’s desalination plants, the very systems that supply drinking water across the country. 


US-Iran War: Trump Threatens to Use Water as a Weapon in West Asia War

US President Donald Trump has indicated that America could "take the oil in Iran" and seize the Kharg Island-- Tehran's main oil export hub-- as war in the Middle East continued into its fifth week. Talking to the Financial Times, the American commander-in-chief said his "preference would be to take the oil", comparing the US military operation in Iran with those in Venezuela earlier this year, where Washington gained control of the oil industry following the capture of the Latin American nation's leader, Nicolas Maduro.


Trump: US Forces Could Take Iran's Kharg Island Very Soon; Floats Seizing Iran Oil Exports

Local media reported that Iran has placed the issue of withdrawing from the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) on its review agenda. Amid this, U.S. President Donald Trump stated he is negotiating with Iran while directly mentioning the possibility of seizing Kharg Island through ground force deployment.

According to Iran’s semi-official Tasnim News Agency on the 28th, the Iranian parliament and other relevant institutions are urgently reviewing the issue of withdrawing from the NPT.

Iran Considering Leaving Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty Amid War

US President Donald Trump, in his Truth Social post, claimed that March 30 was the “big day” for Iran. In his Truth Social Post Trump claimed that the US has already taken out "many long-sought-after targets". This post comes after Trump's claim that Iran has already achieved its objective of regime change in Iran.&nbsp;“Big day in Iran.

Donald Trump says ‘big day in Iran’  claims key targets destroyed amid talks of diplomacy

US President Donald Trump on Sunday night aboard Air Force One said that, the Iran has allowed almost 20 cargo ships of oil through the Strait of Hormuz, starting on Monday, March 30. He called this a “tribute” and a “sign of respect” to the US. He also implied that Tehran's decision was a sign that the negotiations are underway and the war was coming to an end. However, it was not clear where these 20 ships were headed. China and India are the major buyers of Iranian oil. The ship could also belong to the Gulf nations.&nbsp;“As you know, they agreed to send eight boats two days ago, and they added another two. So, that’s 10 boats. So, today they gave us as a tribute…I don’t know, I can’t describe it exactly…I think out of a sign of respect, 20 boats of oil, big, big boats of oil going through the Hormuz Strait. That’s taking place starting tomorrow morning over the next couple of days. I would only say that we are doing extremely well in negotiations,” said Trump to the reporters aboard Air Force One.&nbsp;Also read: <a href="https://www.wionews.com/photos/us-iran-war-day-30-kharg-island-escalation-global-impact-1774799290072">US-Iran war day 30: Kharg Island showdown, regional escalation and global market shock</a><h2>Do the 20 ships belong to Pakistan?</h2>Pakistani Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Isaq Dar confirmed that Iran has approved 20 Pakistani-flagged vessels to sail through the Strait of Hormuz.

Trump claims Iran cleared 20 ships as a 'sign of respect'; Pakistan says vessels are theirs

A reported drone incursion at the Palm Beach Airport on Sunday caused panic hours before President Donald Trump was to board Air Force One for Washington DC. However, White House and Secret Service later stated that a private plane lost communications with air traffic control, triggering the scare. Officials were forced to impose a ground stop and scramble helicopters to tackle the situation. Some reports suggest that the Air Force also scrambled F-16 fighter jets and deployed flares. White House and Secret Service confirmed that there was no risk to Air Force One or the President's safety. Trump later safely boarded the plane. "The civilian aircraft violated the Temporary Flight Restriction (TFR) at approximately 1:15 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time. The aircraft was safely escorted out of the area by NORAD aircraft,” the Defense Visual Information Distribution Service said in a statement. The North American Aerospace Defense Command, which controls the airspace over the US and Canada, shared the official reason.&nbsp;The incident came to light when a Delta pilot informed passengers that there was a security scare at the airport, after which helicopters were dispatched. At the time, a possible drone incursion was believed to be the reason, but later the issue turned out to be linked to a private plane. “The flares were used to draw attention from or communicate with the pilot. Flares are employed with the highest regard for safety, burn out quickly and completely, and pose no danger to people on the ground.”&nbsp;“A general aviation aircraft was briefly out of communication with the air traffic control tower at Palm Beach International Airport, but contact was ultimately established, and the ground stop was lifted,” a White House official told The New York Post. Helicopters were scrambled to investigate the security scare, but a Secret Service spokesperson told the outlet that the helicopter was likely not related to the incident.&nbsp;

A security scare at the Palm Beach Airport on Sunday triggered the Air Force to scramble F-16 fighter jets. The incident happened hours before President Donald Trump was supposed to take Air Force One to Washington DC.

US-Iran War: Trump's U-Turn on Retrieving Iran's Uranium

US President Donald Trump on Friday evening said that he surrounds himself with “losers” because he “likes people who listen to my success”.

He made those comments while acknowledging the controversial nature of the comment, he told the crowd, "I'm only kidding... eh, sort of".Trump was at the Saudi-backed conference Future Investment Initiative (FII) summit in Miami.&nbsp;“I always like to hang around with losers, actually, because it makes me feel better. I hate guys who are very, very successful, and you have to listen to their success stories. I like people who like to listen to my success," said Trump. He made the comment &nbsp;in a question-and-answer round following his lengthy speech.

Trump also heaped some praise on the late IRGC general Qasem Soleimani, who was killed by the US in 2020. He characterised Soleimani as a "great leader" and a "mad genius," but called him a "vicious, horrible human being". He further explained the leader label, saying, "if you define a leader in a certain way- a very powerful leader". He claimed that the Iranian leadership was happy when Soleimani was eliminated. Iranian leadership was “extremely happy”, adding that they wouldn't, but he was very powerful and "nobody’s going to be asking them anymore because they’re not here either". He suggested that the Iranian leadership is not there, and nobody wants to be their leader anymore. He said that the “supreme leader” is no more “supreme” and the son is either dead or severely injured, as no one has heard or seen him. “Their leaders are all dead… Their supreme leader is no longer supreme. He's dead,” he said and further added, “Iran's navy is gone… their air force is totally, completely dead.” He claimed that they were "begging” to make a deal. &nbsp;Trump's comments were part of a broader response to the questions regarding global leadership, where he stated that "winning" is the most important factor.

Donald Trump says he prefers “losers” over successful people, praises Qasem Soleimani and makes explosive claims about Iran at the FII summit in Miami.
