Is Trump's threat against Iran a violation of international law?

Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch, the international human rights organization, say that the US President Donald Trump's threat to attack Iran's cultural and historical establishment is a direct war crime. The two companies, in separate statements, have called on the United States to stop threatening Iran and respect international law.

Iran recently threatened retaliation after the martyrdom of Lt. Gen. Qasim Solaimani, commander of Iran's Quds Force in Baghdad, in a terrorist attack on US forces. In response to that threat, US President Trump wrote in a Twitter message that he had identified a total of 12 establishments in the country, including Iran's cultural heritage, and that attacks on US interests would be attacked.

Amnesty International said in a statement that the United States should now say that it respects all international law.

Another international human rights watchdog, Human Rights Watch, said similar threats would be a deadly war if the US President threatened to attack Iran's cultural and historical centers. Andrew Praso, a senior official at the firm, said the US president should withdraw his statement and declare that he would not direct such attacks.

Washington was outraged when Imran turned down offers to allow US forces to use some of Pakistan's military bases, and visited Russia after the start of the Ukraine war. No other government has dared to adopt the kind of independent policy that Imran has adopted, especially closer to China and Russia. Since taking office...

What doing now Muslim Communities?

Mohammad Ghori Shah #What Iran has done so far against Israel is heroic, on the other hand, the behavior of Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and Turkey is cowardly. The current time is very important and dangerous. If Muslim countries cannot unite at this time, they will be humiliated by Israel and America one after another. On the other hand, if they support Iran simultaneously, the roar of Israel and America will be erased from history forever. Not only that, if the anti-imperialist forces can also unite at this time, the chapter of history is bound to change in the same way. Everything is just a possibility.
