    That was a good attempt at minimizing the effects of someone of this stature making a statement like this.

    It’s a public statement saying to the extremely devout religious members that the high officials condone the deaths of these Nations people.

    I mean it always has been okay. But now it’s even more okay. Again.

    Kinda like the high officials of these nations did to their military. So it’s all balance right?

    But it’s not cause the religious extremist will attack soft targets intentionally.

      Death to America does not mean death to Americans and the Iranian people know this. They are much kinder to us than we often are to them.
