Iran’s Secretary of the Supreme National Security Council, Ali Larijani, sharply criticized U.S. President Trump, accusing him of plunging the Middle East into chaos and declaring that Tehran will not engage in negotiations with Washington.
In a series of posts on X following the weekend’s joint U.S.-Israeli strikes on Iran, Larijani claimed Trump had transformed his campaign slogan into something else entirely.
“Trump plunged the region into chaos with his ‘delusional fantasies’ and now fears more American troop casualties. With his delusional actions, he turned his self-made ‘America First’ slogan into ‘Israel First’ and sacrificed American soldiers for Israel’s power-hungry ambitions,” Larijani wrote.
He continued: “And with new fabrications, it is once again imposing the cost of assassinating its own character on American soldiers and families. Today, the Iranian nation is defending itself. The armed forces of Iran did not initiate the aggression.”
In a separate post, Larijani made Tehran’s position clear: Iran “will not negotiate with the United States.”
Earlier Sunday, he addressed regional governments directly, asserting that Iran does not seek conflict with neighboring countries but would retaliate if American bases on their soil are used to launch attacks against the Islamic Republic.
“To the countries of the region: We are not seeking to attack you. But when the bases located in your country are used against us, and when the United States carries out operations in the region relying on these forces, then we will target those bases. For these bases are not part of the land of those countries; rather, they are American soil,” he wrote.

This man lost his mind, he seems talking about nobility but has no sense of reality, Trump said they will face a certain death, does that have to do with Israel also, no he is telling them the reality, that is that Israel could be on another planet in regards to military capibilities, it doesn’t make sense that an intelligent person, you scream and say an army is coming and he says here’s a knife, I must admit that it’s a miracle that these intelligent leaders are as stupid clowns, maybe they feel quilty about the killings, but they got another religious leader that doesn’t have to do any killings, maybe some military personal will never back down, cause they fight with all the life, but intelligent heads of state should be so foolish looking death right in the eye is unbelievably, it doesn’t have anything to do with Israel, it’s your sword and shield is a hundred years outdated, but they just don’t get it, and it’s in front of all the world, unbelievable.
Amalek at its real colors. Amalek was them First Nation to attack the bnei yisroel after Kriyas yam suf and the numerous miracles. The whole world feared Bnei yisrael. They broke the ice. Iran is the very country that had Haman the Amaleki try to destroy the Jewish nation as we read in the Megillah. Today too even with the world’s biggest worships sorrounding them they refused to back down much like the ancient Amalek attacked the Am yisroel. We now see its Parashas zachor as Jews throughout the world stamped their feet after the reading of parsahas Amalek at that very hour within 40 minutes all of Irans top leadership was wiped out. The very country that the story of Purim happened is happening again in the very same time. We have king Achasverois also known as president Donald Trump as many have classified him as the one who is ushering in the messianic age with his behind the scene Esther ha malka his Jewish daughter. It’s time for us to wake up. No more talking in shul during davening or leining. Begin study of Torah be it daf yomi with Eli stefansky and his AI videos , Chumash rashi,listening To rabbi Avigdor miller Hashkofa recordings. If you don’t learn Torah you are disconnected from reality. Today there is no excuse. Everything is translated. There is Torah anytime with thousands of recordings. Stop the materialism chase. It’s just a waste of time. Everyone gets an alloted time in this world. Whatever you form in your personality is how you enter the Next world. You dont want to enter meeting our ancestors rattaling off movie stars and ball players. You want to connect with Rashi and all our other great sages. Start now. Open the books. The Torah.
At first, I was very disappointed that this snake is still alive. I thought he is going to start his fake yet very successful negotiations just as he did with Obama. B”H he is not even trying to use their only escape route – negotiate, promise to disarm and then do what they always do – cheat cheat cheat…
Not this time. Now they want to be the victims of the Jews. Israel first! Venachpoch Hu!
His strategy is to rely on anti-Semitism by portraying the war as Trump coming to help Jews. This goes against Trump’s policy of American First (isolationism) and his desire for lower oil prices. The Iranians are obviously aware of growing anti-Semitism in western countries, and the not unrelated growing political clout of Muslim migrants in the western democracies. Israel has put itself in weak position by relying on American support which may end in three years if there is a change in political control in the US.
