Iranian President Hasan Rouhani urged the United States on Wednesday to move beyond “insignificant” fears that his country seeks nuclear arms and challenged it to join his country in battling what he described as the global threat of Islamic extremism.

Rouhani also made clear he was not prepared to interfere in the case of Jason Rezarian, an American-Iranian journalist detained on unspecified charges in Iran, during a speech and question-and-answer session hosted by the New America think tank.

But most of his comments focused on the menace posed by the Islamic State terror group and attempts by his country and the U.S. to seal a deal to meet White House demands that Iran agree to significant long-term curbs on its nuclear program that could be used to make weapons in exchange for an end to crippling sanctions. …

He is relying on the typical idiot American being spoon fed info and opening two fronts. Make no mistake, Iran likes the ISIS(L) thing, obama (par usual) is screwing it all up. Iran stokes the fires about fighting “extremists”, the American Idol idiot voter is down with it, Iran gets cover and develops the very nuke that wipes out half our country; BUT, they’ ll give us dancing with the goats while clad in burka’s for entertainment. Everything will be alright.

Wanna stop the “war on terror”? Use high resolution satellite imagery to locate the posh suburbs of Tehran. The ones with underground parking garages filled with Rolls-Royces, and indoor swimming pools. Load up B-52’s and drop concrete bombs on them for two weeks. Islamic state-sponsored terrorism will slow to a trickle.
