‘You can’t do a damn thing!’ Iran’s supreme leader
Ayatollah Khamenei hits back at Donald Trump after the president threatened to make him pay a ‘big price’ for US embassy attack
Khamenei strongly condemned US airstrikes on Iraq which killed 25 militants from Kataeb Hezbollah on Sunday night and refurted Trump’s claim that Iran ‘orchestrated’ yesterday’s embassy assault in Baghdad
Thousands – many of them members of the Iran-backed militia – rushed the heavily fortified Green Zone
Today photos emerged showing the scorched interior of the embassy’s secure entrance after it was set alight
One militant had said: ‘God willing if this fire reaches inside the embassy, we will not spare a single employee’
President Donald Trump’s reinforcements were engaged early Wednesday as tear gas was fired to disperse those who had spent the night outside the main gates. Several ambulances arrived to ferry the wounded.
Iran’s supreme leader today hit back at the US for deadly strikes on Iraq and warned his country would not hesitate to strike after Donald Trump said Tehran would pay a ‘big price’ for the assault on the American consulate in Baghdad. ‘I and the government and the nation of Iran strongly condemn this American crime,’ Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said of USAF strikes which killed 25 members of Kataeb Hezbollah in Iraq on Sunday night. Thousands mobbed the US embassy in Baghdad on Tuesday, breaching the heavily fortified Green Zone and torching the entrance, in protest to the deaths. President Trump, who deployed 100 Marines to protect the site last night, has accused Tehran of ‘orchestrating’ the assault. And on Wednesday the Iran-backing militia attacked the embassy for the second day in a row and the US Marines fired tear gas at the fighters who set part of the embassy on fire again. Some 50 tents, portable toilets and cooking pots were shipped in as hundreds of the furious mob prepared a sit-in at the embassy’s gates, demanding that the US withdraw from Iraq. Video has also emerged of one fighter telling cameras that he hopes to kill all Americans inside the embassy during the attack. He said: ‘God willing if this fire reaches inside the embassy, we will not spare a single employee.’ It comes after Trump last night tweeted: “Iran will be held fully responsible for lives lost, or damage incurred, at any of our facilities. They will pay a very BIG PRICE! This is not a Warning, it is a Threat.” In response, Khamenei retweeted the post and said: “That guy has tweeted that we (the United States) see Iran responsible for the events in Baghdad and we will respond to Iran.”First of all, you can’t do a damn thing! This has nothing to do with Iran,” the supreme leader in his televised address.
Iran’s supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has hit out at the United States in his first public comments since deadly weekend US air strikes on pro-Iran fighters in western Iraq. Nick Note: Eventually people figure out a bullshitter is a bullshitter and will not do shit. The day Trump called of the air strike after Iran shot down the US dorne the US became a shadow of its former self. And the Coup de Grah was when America turn tail and rain leaving Syrian and Iraqi Kurd’s to the invading forces of Turkey and Russia. Iran is right Trump is a lot of blow and go he will do nothing more then bomb defenseless civilian targets. If had a real set of hairy balls Iran’s nuclear program would be up in smoke. AND THAT Will NOT HAPPEN. Americans should build nuclear bomb shelters in their backyards instead of condos on the islands.
