The nasty finger-pointing came after Trump announced he wouldn't re-certify Iran's compliance under the nuclear deal.
"The Iranian people will not bend down before a dictator," Rouhani said. "It has never surrendered and will never."
Next he said that "No paragraph or article or note will be added" to the deal to please Trump.
So it's clear, Iran wants to continue developing nuclear weapons behind our back. They refuse to allow us to inspect military facilities where weapons are likely being developed, and they provide inspectors with soil samples rather than allowing actual inspections to be done properly.
Of course it's a bad deal. Trump is exactly right and he's also totally justified in de-certifying the deal because there's no honest way to inspect Iran's nuclear activity.
With all Rouhani's tough talk, I suspect we're not going to see their Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps boarding U.S. Navy vessels in the future--certainly not without retaliation by us.
Trump was clearly correct in saying the 2015 deal brokered by the Obama administration was not in the national security interests of the United States and it only helped Iran in their support of terrorist organizations in the Middle East.
"We will not continue down a path whose predictable conclusion is more violence, more terror and the very real threat of Iran's nuclear breakout," Trump said.
Rouhani isn't the only other person who hates the U.S. to condemn Trump's decision. John "Hair plugs" Kerry condemned it as well.
"I strongly hope that the other six signatories will prove to the world what responsible behavior is, and adhere to this agreement--no matter what false accusations and contrived provocations are put forward by President Trump," Kerry said.
Responsible behavior would have been to actually put forward a deal that was a 'two-way street' rather than what was crafted.
The deal stinks of desperation.
