Retired Gen. Jack Keane said Iran\u2019s leadership should take President Donald Trump<\/a> “at his word,” arguing that the administration\u2019s threat to hold the regime to account for violence against its own people remains in place as the U.S. moves military assets into the region.<\/p>\n

Keane pushed back on the idea that the White House had softened its stance toward Tehran or might be trying to mislead Iran, saying Trump has been clear about his intent.<\/p>\n

“I believe the president at his word. He intends to hold the regime accountable for what they have done,” Keane said on “The Sunday Briefing.”<\/p>\n

The U.S.-based Iranian Human Rights Activists News Agency estimates that more than 3,000 people were killed over roughly three weeks of unrest<\/a>, though other reports put the death toll higher. Many thousands more have been arrested.<\/p>\n

“Certainly, the regime should take him at his word. They’ve completely disregarded it, obviously,” Keane said, adding that Iran’s “bloodbath” was not over.<\/p>\n

He claimed Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei,<\/a> had brought in militias from other countries such as Iraq, Pakistan and Afghanistan to patrol the streets with loudspeakers and machine guns to suppress dissent.<\/p>\n

Trump has not yet taken action, Keane said, because the U.S. is still positioning assets and assessing how Iran might retaliate. He suggested American military bases and Israel<\/a> were in danger of finding themselves in Iran’s crosshairs.<\/p>\n

“What likely it means \u2014 I’m just speculating \u2014 is we’ve expanded the targets to ballistic missiles, which would do damage to us as well as to the Israelis. [We must] make certain that we have all the assets in the region to be able to accomplish that.”<\/p>\n

He said Trump has been explicit about his intentions<\/a> and should not be underestimated.<\/p>\n

“That threat is still on the table.”<\/p>\n
