Share this story🚨 President Trump just hit Iran with a powerful counter-demand.
Iran says wants compensation for the recent conflict.
Trump scoffed and said now America is demanding payment for all the blood Iran has spilled over the past 50 years.
He said the compensation would cover those killed in the USS Cole attack in October 2000, among others.
