Imagine letting this sort of garbage go unchallenged during an interview.
Granted, it’s CNN we’re talking about here but c’mon, for real?
Watch this.
.@AliVaez suggests that @SecPompeo is “jealous” of Iranian FM @JZarif's communication skills, and wants to kick him off social media.

What the HELL?
And she didn’t give him a bit of pushback.
Wow.
Richard Grenell called her OUT.
The Iranian people are not allowed on twitter.
Zarif’s regime pushes gay people off buildings.
Zarif’s regime is the #1 state sponsor of terror & terror financing.
POTUS offered talks with the regime.
Shameful for Amanpour to allow Iranian propaganda to go unchallenged. https://t.co/ObKTuhHUBb— Richard Grenell (@RichardGrenell) August 2, 2019
DAMN
DRAAAAAG her, Richard.
Did you ask him if they would stop pushing gay people off buildings in another clip or nah?

She didn’t ask him a damn thing that would have made him or Iran look bad.
Jealous, Really? What is this, Kindergarten?
Zarif is a a shameless propagandist who uses social media to undermine our democracy.

Maybe Christiane should take a look through the responses to her tweet because we’re thinking she missed A LOT.
As patently obvious in his interview with you, @AliVaez is a con-man and an apologist for the evil regime of Iran which is called the #CriminalCult by most Iranians.
His claim of #RibbentropZarif being jealous of Sec Pompeo is laughable and absurd!

Absolutely! These lobbyists and apologists are even worse

Zarif has been lying in every interview he has been given. Imagine if Hitler sent his men to the US & GB to freely propagate in favor of Hitler & his political view with lies! Zarif once said in an interview that we chosed to live like this! So I don’tknow why he is angry now?
