Hello Everybody,

This was the Iranian reaction to the terrorist attacks on
the USA during 9-11.  Source: Wikipedia

Can anybody in this forum please explain why The Orange One
is so insistent on starting a war with Iran?  His order to
assassinate a top Iranian general in Iraq is considered by
many to have been a war crime, as well as targeting cultural
sites in Iran for future military strikes.

The man has no regard for US law.  And apparently no regard
for international law as well.  Perhaps he is an anarchist
who is hell-bent on destruction.  Regardless of the cost.

"Iran: Iranian president Mohamed Khatami[56][57][58] and Supreme Leader
Ali Khamenei condemned and denounced the attacks and the terrorists who
carried them out. Iranians who gathered for a soccer match in Tehran
two days after the 9/11 attacks observed a moment of silence. There was
also a candlelight vigil. Huge crowds attended candlelit vigils in Iran,
and 60,000 spectators observed a minute's silence at Tehran's soccer
stadium.[59][60] On Tuesday, September 25, in 2001, Iran's fifth
president, Mohammad Khatami meeting British Foreign Secretary, Jack
Straw, said: "Iran fully understands the feelings of the Americans
about the terrorist attacks in New York and Washington on September
11." He said although the American administrations had been at best
indifferent about terrorist operations in Iran (since 1979), the
Iranians instead felt differently and had expressed their sympathetic
feelings with bereaved Americans in the tragic incidents in the two
cities." He also stated that "Nations should not be punished in place
of terrorists." [61] According to Radio Farda's website, in 2011, on
the anniversary of the attacks, United States Department of State,
published a post at its blog, in which the Department thanked Iranian
people for their sympathy and stated that they would never forget
Iranian people's kindness on those harsh days. This piece of news at
Radio Farda's website also states that after the attacks' news was
released, some Iranian citizens gathered in front of the Embassy of
Switzerland in Tehran, which serves as the protecting power of the
United States in Iran, to express their sympathy and some of them lit
candles as a symbol of mourning.[62]"
