The warning didn’t come from a diplomat. It came from Trump. All caps. No filter. “EVERYBODY SHOULD IMMEDIATELY EVACUATE IRAN.” That was the post. That was the moment the mask came off.
He didn’t say when. He didn’t say how. He just said go. And when the man who once ordered the Soleimani strike says move, people remember what happened last time.
Tehran is already bleeding. Israeli strikes have pounded the capital for five straight days. The state TV building was hit live on air. Oil depots are burning. Command centers are gone. Over two hundred Iranians are dead. More than a thousand wounded. And now Trump says the next phase is coming.
He’s in Alberta for the G7. But his focus is not on trade. It’s on Tehran. He told reporters Iran had sixty days to make a deal. They didn’t. On day sixty one, Israel launched. Now Trump says Iran is “basically at the table” and that “we’ll do something with Iran” once he leaves the summit.
This isn’t a bluff. It’s a countdown.
Markets are listening. Oil futures dipped after Trump said the conflict would be over soon. Defense stocks held steady. Traders are betting he means it. They’ve seen this movie before. The ending is never soft.
Iran says it wants to talk. Trump says they should have done that before. He’s not offering a handshake. He’s offering a deadline. And the clock is ticking.
The nuclear file is wide open. Trump says Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon. Not now. Not ever. He’s said it before. He’s saying it louder now. The strikes on Iran’s nuclear infrastructure have already begun. The next wave may not stop at centrifuges.
The White House has not confirmed any new military action. But Trump’s language is not subtle. He says Iran is “not winning this war.” He says “they should talk immediately before it’s too late.” He says “we’re on our way.” That’s not diplomacy. That’s a prelude.
The streets of Tehran are shifting. Videos show families packing cars. Gas stations are jammed. Supermarkets are empty. The fear is not theoretical. It’s moving. The city is bracing for something bigger than airstrikes.
This isn’t a leak. This isn’t a rumor. This is a direct call from a man who still moves armies and markets. Trump didn’t say maybe. He said now.
And when he says now, history says listen.
