The US has agreed to resume talks with Iran after the two parties traded strikes this week. US President Donald Trump reiterated claims earlier this week the 60-day ceasefire is over. President Trump’s decision to pursue peace comes even after the Israelis reportedly warned US officials of a new Iranian plot to assassinate him. President Trump spoke candidly about that threat numerous times this week and revealed to the New York Post the instructions he left in the event Iran succeeds in killing him. “If anything happens, to just literally bomb them at levels that they’ve never seen before,” he said.

‘They want to kill him’: Iranian threats against Trump intensify US security precautions

Sky News Defence Analyst Peter Jennings speculates on whether Trump’s reference about Iran being ‘scum’ was because he’d had some intelligence put under his nose of a threat on his life. “There’s no secret that the Iranians want to kill Trump; they’ve been chanting that in the streets of Tehran for days now,” Mr Jennings told Sky News host James Morrow. “If they had an opportunity, they would certainly do it. “I just wonder if Trump’s reference about scum was because he’d had some intelligence put under his nose which said there’s going to be a serious attempt to try and kill you.”
