Crowd burns U.S. and Israeli flags and chants “Death to U.S., death to Israel”; Rouhani says Iran faces “no military threat”

This is what it has come to: the President of Iran appears at a rally where frenzied crowds are burning American and Israeli flags and chanting, “Death to America! Death to Israel!,” and boasts about Iran facing no military threat, while the President of the United States and the mainstream media insist that the Iranians are now “moderate” and anxious to make peace. Meanwhile, Iran sends warships into U.S. waters, as one of its top naval commanders boasts about how they’re going to sink American ships. Clearly they know that there is absolutely nothing they can do that would stop Barack Obama from supporting and aiding them.

“Rouhani: There is ‘no military threat’ against Iran,” by Nasser Karimi for the Associated Press, February 11 (thanks to Jerk Chicken):

TEHRAN, Iran (AP) — Iran’s President Hassan Rouhani on Tuesday called for “fair and constructive” nuclear talks with world powers as the nation marked the anniversary of the 1979 Islamic revolution with massive rallies, complete with anti-American and ant-Israeli [sic] chants.

The crowd burned US and Israeli flags with pictures of President Barack Obama and Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and shouted “Down with the US” and “Death to Israel” — chants that are commonplace on most Iranian rallies but now come against the backdrop of Rouhani’s policy of outreach to the West.

Rouhani’s appeal came ahead of next week’s talks between Iran and six world powers seeking to eliminate fears that Tehran may use its nuclear programs to make atomic weapons. Both sides are to meet on February 18 in Vienna to try to translate a landmark interim deal struck in November into a permanent agreement.

“Iran is determined to hold fair and constructive talks within the framework of international regulations and we hope to see such an intention on the other side as well,” Rouhani told hundreds of thousands gathered in Tehran’s Azadi, or Liberty, square and in the streets leading to it.

Tuesday marks the 35th anniversary of the revolution that toppled the pro-US Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi and brought Islamists to power. State media reported similar rallies elsewhere across the country, saying the gatherings drew millions of Iranians.

Tehran and world powers struck the interim deal in November under which Iran agreed to cap its controversial uranium enrichment program in return for the easing of some sanctions by the West. The interim accord is supposed to last for six months as Iran and the six-nation group — the five permanent members of the UN Security Council plus Germany — negotiate a final deal.

Rouhani said Tuesday the talks must be “based on good intentions and peacefulness,” and dismissed any perception of military threats against Iran.

“If some have the illusion that there is a threat against the Iranian nation on the table, we say they need new eyeglasses,” Rouhani told the rally in Tehran. “There is no military threat against the Iranian nation.”…

    A Sanction Evasion — Up Close and Personal

    NAZI collaborator Daimler AG has a long history of collaborating with the Holocaust denying regime of Iran.

    Ride in quiet climate controlled comfort without the discomfort of drafty clanging doors.
    Roll up these windows to a live in a carefree Jew less dream and forget that crime
    that beckons with strange voices and screams amid the exhaust fumes from Zyklon B.
    NEVER FORGET that the MERCEDES trademark STAR is much like the YELLOW STAR OF DAVID
    a notorious discriminating mark of DISTINCTION,.
    Mercedes-Benz slogan – “The best or nothing.”
    You wouldn’t want to be caught dead in a slave labor inspired Nazi death camp mobile, would you?
    “CLIMB ABOARD, relax and away you go – that’s driving comfort, Mercedes-Benz style”
    Faster than a slave-labor train leaving the concentration camp for the Daimler AG factories
    Next stop Buchenwald (To Each his Own) or zoom onto Auschwitz where (work is free)
    for an educational experience you won’t soon forget.

    A Sanction Evasion Who’s Who
    In honor of Iran’s DEATH TO AMERICA DAY (Feb 11, 1979)

    The following is just one innocent harmless humble opinion and does not represent JW.
    Mandatory Disclaimer:
    Do not join in on a Mercedes public boycott protest and
    Do not send irate email marked ‘Sieg Heil’ to:
    dialog@daimler.com
    nor write tons of angry letters to Dr. Dieter Zetsche
    at
    Daimler AG
    70546 Stuttgart
    Germany

    Hail the Leader (Führer Hagel)
    Mercedes is a leader in the sales of luxurious autos to die for.
    But, see how soon they forget their own sordid NAZI collaborator past as if it did not exist.
    What part of NEVER AGAIN do they not understand?
    The DAIMLER AG MERCEDES vehicles make a BOLD uncompromising statement
    as bold as collaborating with a holocaust denying regime of Iran.
    Propaganda Minister Goebbels would be so proud.
    No need to put gasoline in a Mercedes it is fueled by a history built on zwangsarbeiter blood sweat and tears.
    DAIMLER AG why do you still insist on collaborating with these murderous anti-Semitic lunatic regimes?
    Has history taught you nothing?
    Of course the holocaust did exist and no one knows that better than Daimler-Benz AG.
    It is well documented and won’t be wished away by pretending it is a MYTH in spite of the shameless attempts by the Iranian propaganda ministry to imprison the truth about the Holocaust and hold it as a HOSTAGE.
    Without slave labor camps Daimler AG might not exist.
    Why would any corporation do business with Iran?
    DAIMLER AG MERCEDES have you no shame left at all?
    Yet, Germany wishes us all an Iranian ‘Happy Death to America Day’

    If fear drives the ‘criminal shout’ consider Iran cowed. We ignore a basic human emotion, Fear. Iran is either a crafty cynic or a frightened mouse. It can’t be both at the same time. With Syria inert, she cowers in fear. Rouhani is aware that his predecessor had got his Big Satan Little Satan rhetoric upside down, and that he is staring into the barrel of the real Elvis, Israel.

    Iran understands SANCTIONS
    Jimmy Carter’s desperately wanted to bring the 52 hostages home before the end of his term but the Iranians knew they could hold out until Reagan took office.
    Iran would have given in even if appeasement Carter had been reelected because of the sanctions.
    Now is the time to stir up the hornet’s nest and provoke the regime into pissing off the EU.
    Tighten sanctions and IDENTIFY the regimes economic funders like
    Mercedes Benz

      It all came back for a moment and it felt GREAT!
      The “Cowboy” stepped up, said the Oath, and
      Iran put ALL hostages on a plane that day.

    Enough is enough. America, when up over 500,000 Muslim/Refugee/immigrants are being relocated to the United States. It’s time to turn back this trend. Did you vote for that? No one voted on this? For the real truth Google “TheProjectMuslimBrotherhood” it is their secret doctrine to destroy America from within. Guess what they are succeeding folks. One only has to look at England, Belgium, France, Germany, and the rest of Europe today, It is sad what Paris has become, mainly due to the Muslim immigration; take a good look at Europe and that is America in 25 years, unless something is done to prevent “theprojectmuslimbrotherhood” from making further inroads into America, our cities, schools, universities and textbooks and yes, even our own government. Multiculturalism is literally destroying Europe. You give them one inch and they will eventually erode our American culture. There are now over 700 “Islamic no go Muslim Zones” within England, France and Germany. Islam is not a religion but a political ideology; it is the antithesis of a free society. Take a look at Dearborn, Michigan,, Tennessee, New York, Indiana, S. Dakota, California and Colorado have so far most of the immigrants what State next? I have no problem with the “peaceful Muslim” that wants to integrate into our culture and follow our laws. The problem lies in that they want to dominate and force Islam and Sharia law upon us all. Awareness is the issue, put the word out folks, most families are just trying to survive and pay their bills, working two jobs, raising their children. They just don’t have the time to keep up with what is really taking place across America today and the mainstream news will not carry it due to political correctness. Just not acceptable here in America folks Stand up and be counted. “When good men and woman our quiet evil always wins” Forget about be labeled a racist, or being politically correct, multiculturalism is not good for America. Let them adapt to our culture, period Amen. Again for facts and truth Google “theprojectmuslimbrotherhood” speaks volumes on the intent to destroy us from within. Who will stop this “insanity” from becoming a reality in America? Join ACT today, a non violent association with over 600 chapters throughout America and the World, to stop radical Islam and Sharia Law from making further inroads into our culture. Jews, Christians, Priests and infidels are being slaughtered and Christian churches are being burned to the ground, enough is enough folks. Where is the condemnation of these acts from all the Muslims that are here? There are nearly 3 million here already yet you barely hear any of them condemn the atrocities. What you do will affect your children and grandchildren and future generations of America yet to come. Stand up and be counted to defeat this real threat upon America. Europe is losing the battle already. My goal is to reach 100 million people and get these facts out there will you help pass it along or voice your solutions or thoughts to this serious issue?
