Iran Threatens Response If U.S. Extends Sanctions



Wall Street Journal: Iran’s Khamenei Threatens Response If U.S. Extends Sanctions

Supreme leader’s comments come after U.S. House of Representatives voted in favor of extension

Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei threatened a response Wednesday if the U.S. extends sanctions against his country for another 10 years, just days after the House of Representatives voted overwhelmingly in favor of an extension.

Mr. Khamenei, who has final say in most matters of state, didn’t say what action Iran would take if the sanctions are extended. The House voted almost unanimously last week to keep the Iran Sanctions Act in place for a decade more following its expiration at the end of this year.

Such an extension would violate the landmark nuclear deal brokered last year between Iran and six world powers including the U.S., Mr. Khamenei said in comments published to his official website, Khamenei.ir.

Iran is the face of evil but the all knowing obama admin would have the world think otherwise as they commit espionage on a large scale in plain sight.

57 more days to walk with the leader of the Choom gang. Then he becomes a community agitator again.

______e never did produce metrics of how his community organizing helped the area he 'served'.
