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.

That’s an astute thought, CPE! After all Bibi has said many times, “the enemy of my enemy is my friend.” The Saudis also are shrewd enough to set religious ideology aside, or maybe on a back burner, to overcome a hostile threat just down the road.
You're thinking this is still 1980. HALF the population of this country sides with Obama and the Marxists. Half does not. We have quasi-Sharia law in multiple cities, Jihadists killing American marines on US soil and the government insists that it cannot find a 'motive' for the killings - and you think that we have any national willpower by those now in power to defend the country??????
Delusional. That is what I would call that kind of thinking right now.
No, I’d forgotten it. Honestly, it’s gotten to the point I just ignore them. There’s nothing meaningful coming out of Washington, D. C. for us. Other than to know what new insult is coming the nation’s way out of D. C., why else listen them anymore?
He was just in a grumpy mood because Ramadan is over.
You forgot Kerry’s daughter married an Iranian. Makes you wonder just who her husband is.
Sorry, It’s not U.S. Money. It never was. The $150B was Iranian money legally here in CONUS that was seized by US Gov when sanctions were put in place. Now foolishly being released back to them.
They have been trampling us since 1979.

The Obama knows. It’s just a front to camouflage his alliance with
the other regime. He’s helping them and they know it.
Michael Rubin is way off on this one.
“Delusional. That is what I would call that kind of thinking right now.”
You got that right. Throw in or governments (republican and
democrat) open border policy and It should be obvious.
Let’s just give Iran what they want...a nuclear bomb.
One B-52 at a time.
You are correct about the money and probably other assets that were seized, cash and investments and it might even be more than $150B.
Jordan as well.
Doesn’t look like the Gulf States like it:

This has Jarrett written all over it.
We needed to take that money they cost us much!
We might not be saying that in the future if one of them floats a low altitude nuke up our southern border...
Nothing left to trample Moh.
