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.
