A senior Iranian cleric delivered Friday prayers in Tehran while standing behind a podium that declared, We Will Trample Upon America, according to photos released by Irans state-controlled media.
Iranian cleric Ayatollah Mohammad Ali Movahedi Kermani, who was handpicked by the Islamic Republics supreme leader to deliver the prayers, delivered a message of hostility toward the United States in the first official remarks since a final nuclear deal was signed between Iran and world powers in Vienna last week.
Michael Rubin, a former Pentagon adviser and expert on rogue regimes, said that the official remarks by Iranian officials and clerics are meant to mock the Obama administration.
Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei is toying with Obama right now, humiliating him, but Obama is too self-absorbed to realize it, Rubin said. The best analogy to this would be if Roosevelt made peace with Hirohito who gave a speech under the banner We will bomb Pearl Harbor anyway.
Theres a reason why Obama doesnt want Congress to see the agreement, Rubin added. That is because to examine the agreement is to recognize that its more an unconditional surrender than an arms control agreement.

In the context of the Middle East our President is being smacked in the chops by the Iranian regime, almost daily. He'll call it for domestic consumption. Not sure why it's not an issue that he, and our nation, are being played for the fool even if it's solely for "domestic consumption".
If our POTUS was a REAL MAN AND PATRIOT, he would issue an appropriate and lethal response to these savages.
Are you kidding me??? We don't have the national will any longer to blow our own noses. This country could be defeated by any number of nations, Iran among them. We wouldn't even admit publicly that they were our enemies as our great monuments and public building burned to radioactive cinders!
If we don't find some way to turn this thing around SOON, this country will be lost. obama will have won.
He probably approved the message.
What we really need to be looking at is this is being said in their “church” during service. That means it’s not a religion and we should be kicking the doors down to ever mosque in America and stop the building of any more.
Oh my. We need to send them $150 billon more dollars so that they’ll like us.
Kerry, “Thank you Sir, may I have another?”
Kerry’s comments are disturbing.
"Come and Get It!"
Yeah, towelhead, and our fearless leader has just made it easier for you.
The is a Jan 2013 article. Did robe wearing muslim obama ever go through with this and close down our air defense system on our US/Mexico border?
[and 85-90% of the world's Muslims are Sunni, IOW, Shiites kill twice as many per capita]
*This* is a Jan 2013 article...
I would say that is an accurate assessment.
I fully admit I see nothing in the least that indicate the legislative branch will go tits-up on this without the slightest effort from the executive branch.
yep complete muslim crap armies in the country awaiting obozzos call for racist riots..
If I were president I would tell Iran if any bombs hit america from suicide bombers we will nuke you.
what are we going to do, sit and watch them attack trucking, light forest fires everywhere and randomly kill, are we going to sit and say hope it doesnt repeat tomorrow, death to Islam and the bs prophet it rides on, God will Kill Islam dead.
They’re getting all uppity now because their bud Obama has guaranteed they will get nukes.
Okay, I’m not exactly sure if you’re saying you don’t think Congress would act or not, but I’ll respond as if that is your point.
I don’t think they would intercede if they could.
Crystal Palace East did point out this is a return of impounded money, so it’s not like Congress has the purse strings to the. She’s right.
My apologies, I was referring to the treaty/agreement to be signed. I do understand it is frozen assets dating back to 1979, correct?
I was opining that if anyone was expecting the release of the frozen funds to be held up because the agreement was going to be held up in the legislative branch, I have seen nothing at all from that branch of the government that would indicate any kind of spine or responsibility.
The agreement/treaty does need to be approved by Congress before the frozen funds could be released doesn’t it? (that is a question...my assumption could be erroneous. For all I know, he is going to use an executive order or something like that, and who on earth would stand up and tell him he can’t?)
