Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian claimed Wednesday his country has “been the victim of terrorism” and blamed the US and Israel for instability in the Middle East during a wild address to the United Nations General Assembly.
Pezeshkian, whose nation is the leading funder of terror groups like Hamas and Hezbollah— reiterated claims that an American attack was behind the deadly Feb. 28 Minab school strike that killed an estimated 120 children.
“The United States president described us as terrorists,” the 71-year-old told world leaders gathered in New York, referring to President Trump’s remarks to the same body one day earlier. “We have been the victims of terrorism.”
Pezeshkian also mourned slain Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei and held up a picture of the late ayatollah, prompting the sole American delegate who attended the speech to walk out.
The Iranian leader then called out President Trump directly and said that Tehran could not be forced to surrender or reopen the Strait of Hormuz until the US and Israel meet its demands.
**SNIP**
Pezeshkian vowed that Iran would not stop seeking nuclear technology “for progress,” insisting that the Islamic Republic wants access to energy, not weapons.
“Iran must be powerful so as to avoid being threatened,” he warned, “to avoid its future being threatened.”

One must admit that Muslims bring the art of the lie to an unreachable high.
Interesting how they act like Democrats.
It’s clear to me that the upper levels of governments are full of professional liars. It’s what they do. However, the Iranians have taken it to a higher level. They make Baghdad Bob look like a boy scout.
Muslims and leftists have mastered the art of being crybullies.
Attack Israel, rape women, literally put babies in ovens.
Israel counter attacks in the most restrained manner possible, protecting civilians all while Muslims use the civilians as human shields.
Cry “the Jooos are committing genocide!”
Leftist media and UN condemn Israel, along with the usual collection of one-balled antisemites.
So predictable.
The headline could almost fit the Babylon Bee, lol.
The utter chutzpah of these scum bags.
Mentally ill MoFo pleads to UNaccountable bureaucrats.
“Iran must be powerful so as to avoid being threatened,”
And “powerful” needs to be measured in goats.
The schoolyard bully gets his ass kicked, then cries for mommy.
If Trump started holding up pictures of all of the people Iran has killed in the last 12 months, he’d still be giving his speech. Let’s not forget that Iran murdered tens of thousands in their streets last winter.
Why they let this animal into New York is beyond me.
Sounds like Iran is not willing to give an inch so we’ll have to take a mile.
Exactly
Interesting how they act like Democrats.
They have democrat advisers
The nerve of these savages!
And yet, we give them an audience.
They are of course shabby disgusting terrorists who from their take over of Iran have been first terrorizing the Iranian people who refuse to submit to their criminal theft and subjugation under the organizing cover of the Mullah's Lying Prophet "Religion", then of course all their violent terroristic interactions with the mideast and the rest of the world.
Ah, and just what future are you referring to, good Sir? (/s)
Shall I start quoting leaders of your Regime, past and present?
Memories seem stunted. No one remembers BaghdadBob? He did the same caca, like Goebbels.
Should have been compared to BBob in next US speech.
The IRGC killed more than 40,000+ protestors in Jan and they are still killing them, but to this douche bag “President” its fine and dandy since his people are doing it
