John Kerry: Just Because Iran Is Saying Death To America Doesnt Mean They Want To Kill Us According to recent reports, John Kerry has come forward to say that the Iranian governments cries for Death to America might not mean what we think it does. Still, he admits that the comments are not helpful. Kerry went on to say that he has not been made aware of an Iranian plan to destroy America. When he appeared in front of the House Foreign Affairs Committee to defend the nuclear agreement, he was asked about Tehrans policy, given the death to America chants that can frequently be heard at events for Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and President Hasan Rouhani. I dont believe theyve said that, Kerry commented. I think theyve said Death to America in their chants, but I have not seen this specific. Well, I kind of take that to mean they want us dead, Poe responded. I think they have a policy of opposition to us and of great enmity, Kerry replied, but I have no specific knowledge of a plan by Iran to actually destroy us. What do you think of Kerrys comments? Are you sick of our leaders turning a blind eye to the issues that are right in front of us?
