WASHINGTON – The Biden administration was slammed Monday for offering its sympathies to the Iranian people over the deaths of the oppressive theocracy’s president and foreign minister in a weekend helicopter crash.

“The United States expresses its official condolences for the death of Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi, Foreign Minister Amir-Abdollahian, and other members of their delegation in a helicopter crash in northwest Iran,” the State Department said in an emailed statement on Monday.\

OUTRAGEOUS. The US should be saying Good Riddance, not sharing condolences for the dead "Butcher of Tehran".

They have right to free expression.

They do, but we don’t . . .

I remember back in 1980 or so when Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, 60, and the exiled Shah of Iran, died of lymphatic cancer.

The Iranians celebrated, and their Tehran Radio said, “The bloodsucker of the century has died!”

This seems about as dry as it can get, to me.

““The United States expresses its official condolences for the death of Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi, Foreign Minister Amir-Abdollahian, and other members of their delegation in a helicopter crash in northwest Iran,”
“As Iran selects a new president, we reaffirm our support for the Iranian people and their struggle for human rights and fundamental freedoms,” it added.”

It’s from the Iranian faction of the Puppet Biden State Department. All the holdovers from the Obama regime.

Another federal agency that needs to be obliterated by Trump on January 21, 2025.

Trump 2.0 needs to simply fire all government workers that he has the option to fire. Which also means he’d better be rounding up replacements now.

This is like when the President of Ireland, Eamon de Valera, went to the German embassy in Dublin and offered official condolences for the death of Adolph Hitler.

It is dry, and it’s the diplomatic equivalent of “your leader died, sucks to be you.” This would be perfectly appropriate for Putin, Xi, Maduro, or lil Kim. But this individual was an Iranian mullah, who have been waging a proxy war against us since 1979. Including mortar and rocket round fired at yours truly.

Either ignore it or maybe release a statement expressing condolences to the pilots families.

Joe Biden, him and his team, wrong on every foreign policy issue since 1974.
