Iranian leader says he won't accept demands by "bully countries" after Trump claim
Axios ^ | 3/8/2025 | Barak Ravid

Posted on 03/08/2025 9:01:13 AM PST by marcusmaximus

Iran's supreme leader Ali Khamenei said on Saturday that his country will not accept the demands of "bullying countries".

Why it matters: Khamenei's comment seemed to refer to President Trump's claim he sent a letter to the Iranian leader about a possible nuclear deal. Khamenei didn't mention Trump by name and didn't confirm he received a letter from the U.S. president.

What they are saying: "Some bullying countries insist on talks not to resolve issues but to impose their demands...we will certainly not accept their demands", the Iranian leader said in a meeting with senior officials.

Khamenei said Iran will not accept demands to cap Iran's defensive capabilities by limiting the production of weapons or its missiles' range. He also said Iran won't agree to demands to cut ties with other groups in the region.

Driving the news: President Trump said an interview with Fox Business Maria Bartiromo that will air in full on Sunday that he sent a letter on Wednesday to Iran's supreme leader Ali Khamenei and stressed that he wants to reach a deal on the country's nuclear program.

“Bullying countries.”

Well, there’s a slur one must take seriously coming as it is from Iran.

Fine. After the Gaza mess is cleaned up, expect an attack on your nuclear facilities because Iran cannot be trusted with nuclear weapons.

"The author is Jewish Israeli."

Every nation in the world has its own cohort of despicable communists. It is a worldwide movement that must be resisted everywhere. The reason the globalist marxists hate Russia is that it abandoned the communist international.

We must never relent in fighting communists and we must vote against them and all of their works.

Glad to see our media consultants on wordsmithing have new customers to ply their trade with. It’s almost comical. I think DOGE needs a division on waste, fraud, and abuse, of the English Language. Begin with AP and Reuters, since they publish approved word usage manuals for their news associates. It’s like the Newspeak Bible, revised every six months.

Now every federal agency and NGO has their very own handbook on approved and preferred language usage. Stunning.

First of all, I really despise articles that have a “why it matters” section. That is not news, it is propaganda.

Second, Trump shouldn’t make demands. We should not go to war with Iran. No boots on the ground. No occupation. Just a few dozen boots at 50,000 feet dropping 20,000 and 30,000 pound bombs on all their nuclear facilities until they are turned to rubble. Minimal civilian casualties. Those lunatics can do whatever they want at home, but they can’t be allowed to threaten the world with a nuclear bomb.

Iran under the Ayatollahs is a total bully!

With Trump in power, and with Iran’s restive population, the days of ayatollah rule may be numbered!
