Will ‘automatic’ button be pressed on Trump’s assassination? 1000 missiles locked on Iran, know the truth about American defense system


The ongoing military and diplomatic standoff between the United States and Iran has reached an extremely sensitive and dangerous point. US President Donald Trump has shocked the entire world by making a very sensational claim on his social media platform. According to Trump, he has given ‘standing orders’ to the US armed forces to launch the most devastating military counterattack ever on Tehran if Iran tries to assassinate them or cause them any harm. Trump has warned that 1,000 missiles are currently fully prepared and their target is locked directly towards Iran. Will ‘Dead Man’s Switch’ really work? Donald Trump’s claim has sparked a new debate among international defense experts whether an automatic missile attack can really be launched in the absence of the US President. However, according to legal experts and the US constitutional framework, any such "dead man’s switch" (Automated retaliation system) does not exist practically or legally. US law does not give the military the right to launch a computer-based or automated war upon the death of the President. JD Vance will take command in the absence of the President: Graff explained the rule of continuity According to famous historian and security affairs author Garrett M. Graff, America does have very detailed rules of ‘Continuity-of-Government’ to deal with emergency situations and nuclear threats, but even those plans do not give any technical computer the autonomy to fire missiles. Under the 25th Amendment of the US Constitution and the ‘Presidential Succession Act of 1947’, if any untoward incident occurs with President Trump, the powers of the Commander-in-Chief will be transferred to Vice President JD Vance with immediate effect. After this, it will be entirely up to the discretion of JD Vance whether he implements Trump’s pre-announced strategic decisions or rejects them completely. Mojtaba Khamenei’s counterattack: Slogans of retaliation echoed in Tehran. Within a few hours of Trump’s aggressive statement, a very strong reaction has also emerged from Tehran. Mojtaba Khamenei, the son of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and Iran’s new supreme leader, who was killed in joint US and Israeli air strikes in late February, appeared on state television and reiterated his pledge to avenge his father’s death. Mojtaba said that avenging the sacred blood of all the martyrs of the country is the collective desire of the entire Iranian nation and it will definitely be fulfilled. During the recent official events held in Tehran, banners with slogans against Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu were also seen in the hands of the protesters, which clearly shows that the bitterness between the two sides is at its peak. Sudden change in Air Force One: Türkiye on security alert after NATO summit Meanwhile, several major changes are also being seen in Washington regarding security arrangements. According to a report in ‘The Wall Street Journal’, Israeli intelligence agencies have given inputs to US security forces about a new and very serious conspiracy by Iran against Trump. In view of this threat, while returning from the NATO summit held in Turkey, President Trump was seen traveling on an old ‘Air Force One’ plane instead of a new state-of-the-art $400 million plane gifted by Qatar. According to experts, the new aircraft did not have the advanced missile detection and counter-measures (anti-missile system) that older military aircraft have for safety reasons. This protective agreement has been made at a time when the ceasefire signed between the two countries last month is on the verge of breaking completely.
