Secretary of State John Kerry says he told Iranian officials during the nuclear talks that "death to America" chants at public rallies in their country were "pretty stupid." "I told them that their chants of ´death to America´ and so forth are not helpful, and they´re pretty stupid," Kerry said, lowering his voice, during a question-and-answer session at the Council on Foreign Relations in Washington, where he sought to sell the controversial nuclear deal. Critics have long seized on the chants, saying it shows Tehran is hostile to the United States and that the international community should not trust negotiations

Before or after he gave them $150 Billion?

Yeah, Kerry added, just say “we’re going to kill 25 million” like I did....

[FlingWingFlyer]

“Kerry told Iranians: ´Death to America´ chants are ´pretty stupid’”

LIAR! He’s lying. He hasn’t the guts to tell the Iranians their chants are stupid if he hasn’t the guts to negotiate a deal in favor of the World.

[Jim Robinson]

Kerry is an expert on stupid.

Ya' don't say?

[A message]

That’s some tough talk. I’m sure he said it with a frown. And I imagine the Iranians are still laughing.

What a loser.

[ZULU]

Guess he would consider a nuclear missile in Israel or Washington to be really, really stupid. Wonder what he would have thought of Pearl Harbor or the invasion of Poland?

[austinaero]

I seriously doubt Kerry said any such thing.

[P-Marlowe]

Didn’t Kerry shout stuff like that in the 1970’s along with Jane Fonda and Abbie Hoffman?

[Old Yeller]

Reporting for doody was pretty stoopid too.

[Lurkinanloomin]

I seriously doubt he actually said that to them. If he did it was because he thinks they’re just chanting that to irritate us. He doesn’t think they really mean it.

THEY DO!

[tumblindice]

So was throwing your medals away, so in `81 Mr. Ed asked to have then reinstated.

[Secret Agent Man]

What balls, lurch.

[hoosiermama]

Surenit wasn’t. “You are acting stupidly”? BS

[immadashell]

I wonder whether he compared them to Genghis Khan?
