Reuters: Iran's Rouhani warns Trump about 'mother of all wars'
DUBAI (Reuters) - Iranian President Hassan Rouhani on Sunday cautioned U.S. President Donald Trump about pursuing hostile policies against Tehran, saying “war with Iran is the mother of all wars”, but did not rule out peace between the two countries.
Iran faces increased U.S. pressure and looming sanctions after Trump’s decision to withdraw the United States from a 2015 international deal over Iran’s nuclear program.
Addressing a gathering of Iranian diplomats, Rouhani said: “Mr Trump, don’t play with the lion’s tail, this would only lead to regret,” the state new agency IRNA reported.
“America should know that peace with Iran is the mother of all peace, and war with Iran is the mother of all wars,” Rouhani said, leaving open the possibility of peace between the two countries, at odds since the 1979 Islamic Revolution.
“You are not in a position to incite the Iranian nation against Iran’s security and interests,” Rouhani said, in an apparent reference to reported efforts by Washington to destabilize Iran’s Islamic government.

WNU Editor: Another Middle Eastern leader talking about"mother of all wars/conflict/etc.". Here is an easy prediction. President Trump is going to respond.
Wouldn't pounding in Iran also solve Russia's problems with Iran? And, on a side note, Putin doesn't like radical Islam either. They get a lot of terror attacks in Russia, including Moscow last year...thoughts, Wnu? Right after the Putin visit. Coincidence? ^^

ReplyDeleteDidn't Saddam Hussain warn Bush that he would lose "Mother of all Wars"? But the US came to the rescue of Kuwait and forced Saddam and his murderous family into hiding for their lives. It didn't work out well for them, did it? They pulled Saddam out of his hidey-hole by his hair looking dazed and confused. A fews months later he was hanged by his neck until he was dead. Now these Iranian mullahs sound very much like Saddam, and I don't believe it would be any more difficult to capture these mullahs like Saddam was captured. Would the Iranian mullahs die with the courage that Saddam showed just before his neck was stretched? Maybe, but do they even know that any of the oppressed people of Iran outside of the Revolutionary Guard would gladly pull the lever to end the Iranian mullah leadership.
