US President Donald Trump countered Iran's call for Washington to pay war reparations by demanding Tehran themselves pay for the "damages they've done over a 50-year period." He seemed to reference USS Cole, a guided-missile destroyer that was bombed in a suicide attack by al-Qaeda, a predominantly Sunni jihadist group. The extent of al-Qaeda's ties to Shia-led Iran are debated. #iran #tehran #trump #protests #reparations
