President Obama chided Iran for focusing on violent rhetoric rather than doing work to advance its economic interests during his speech Monday before the United Nations General Assembly, saying that chanting death to America does not create jobs or make Iran more secure.
That path is now available to a nation like Iran, which, as of this moment, continues to deploy violent proxies to advance its interests, Obama said. These efforts may appear to give Iran leverage in disputes with neighbors, but they fuel sectarian conflict that endangers the entire region and isolates Iran from the promise of trade and commerce. The Iranian people have a proud history and are filled with extraordinary petition, but chanting death to America does not create jobs or make Iran more secure.
If Iran chooses a different path, that would be good for the security of the region, good for the Iranian people, and good for the world.
Amid nuclear negotiations with Iran, Ayatollah Khamenei and members of Parliament publicly said death to America, to which the White House responded with a shrug as those statements were intended for a domestic political audience.
Obama also compared Republicans in opposition to his nuclear deal to hardliners in Iran, suggesting they had common cause because they all wanted the agreement to fail. Several Democrats, including Sen. Chuck Schumer (D., N.Y.), announced their opposition to the deal as well, however.
I bet they’re really scared now.
You forgot the (Satire) tag for the headline.
This is satire, right?
What does giving them 150 Billion dollars and a nuclear bomb do?
Maybe they don’t want a job like Reggie Love has.
WOW!!! This guy is TOUGH!!!!
More evidence that the Boy Emperor doesn’t understand Iran or Islam.
It’s the community organizer in him. Someone needs to massage him with a 2x4 and eliminate it.
Now saying that your fellow Muslims chanting "Death To America"....and preparing to knock off Israel is not the language of BFFs.
The Persians are laughing at 0bama.
5.56mm
Now, now.. tut tut.. blah-blah...
Yeah, zer0 — they’re hanging on your every word.
Now sit down.
Hey, Clueless, get yer head out of the sand.
I’m disappointed. I thought he was gonna say chanting “death to America” hasn’t fed one hungry child.
Who wrote that stupid speech for you, president clueless?
nope, video at link.
Obama, et al, would insist that the Iran deal prevents them from getting a nuke.
That’s their lie and they’re sticking to it.
Wow. I was not holding my breath for him making remarks about gays in Iran like he did in Kenya...
Mr. Obama thinks extending rights for same sex marriage and "BlackLivesMatter" giving people a voice make us the most powerful nation in the world. "Constitutional scholar" or not, he's misrepresenting United States as a democracy.
More evidence that the Boy Emperor doesnt pretends not to understand Iran or Islam.
