Former US spy chief Gabbard warned Trump killing Khamenei could empower radical regime
Before attacking Iran, US President Donald Trump was warned by US intelligence that killing Iran's former supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, could result in him being replaced by a more radical regime with greater interest in acquiring nuclear weapons, according to a report from The Wall Street Journal on Tuesday.
In the lead-up to the February attack that started the US-Israel war with Iran, Trump reportedly called his intelligence chief at that time, Tulsi Gabbard, to the Oval Office to discuss the advisability of a full-scale military assault.
