As Twitchy told you, Donald Trump’s speech before the U.N. General Assembly rubbed some people the wrong way. But that doesn’t have to be a bad thing. In fact, it can be a downright fantastic thing.
Trump had the gall to denounce the sham Iran Deal and blast the Iranian government’s “pursuit of death and destruction.” But the truth was evidently too inconvenient for Iranian foreign minister Javad Zarif:
Trump's ignorant hate speech belongs in medieval times-not the 21st Century UN -unworthy of a reply. Fake empathy for Iranians fools no one.
— Javad Zarif (@JZarif) September 19, 2017
And yet Zarif replied. You know what fools no one, Javad? Your attempt to perch yourself and the brutal Iranian regime on the moral high ground.
Still sponsoring the Holocaust denial cartoon contest?

What does not belong to the 21st century is a govenrment which enpowers and sponsors terrorism like your country’s.

"Hate speech". Ironic coming from the guy whose nation's supreme leader has repeatedly pledged to destroy the US & Israel.

On the other hand, calling for the destruction of Israel is so 21st century. Hypocrisy
