“This slogan that is chanted is not a slogan against the American people. Our people respect the American people,” he insisted, according to AFP.

“The Iranian people are not looking for war with any country,” continued Rouhani. […]

Rouhani, despite his comments, has personally presided over “Death to America” chants in Iran, as shown in a video released by Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu’s office last Independence Day. …

Don’t take it personally when we shred that deal up and slap the sanctions back on you.

So if Americans start yelling “Death to muslims!” I’m sure he will be understanding.

The American people are the government. There is no possible interpretation of "death to America" that isn't personally directed at each and every one of us.

Hitler 1933-45:

“Hey Europe, North Africa, Russia, America, Jews, don’t take it personally, it’s just all rhetoric”. “I was just poking fun at all of you...” it ain’t serious.

Iran 2015:

“”Hey Europe, North Africa, Russia, America, Israel, Jews, don’t take it personally, it’s just all rhetoric”. “I was just poking fun at all of you...” it ain’t serious.

Telling baldfaced lies comes as naturally to Iran’s president Hassan Rouhani as it does to America’s grand ayatollah Barack Obama.

“Don’t take it personally when we shred that deal up and slap the sanctions back on you.”

The sanctions were a result of the hostage crisis. It would be impossible to re-impose them without a similar world-wide event. Our trading partners want trade with Iran much more than they want to follow the whims of American policy. It’s about money. The $150 billion of the Shah’s money will not be reclaimable either. It will go into more death to America technology and terrorist activities. This has been the single largest breach of trust and his oath with the American people. Eventually, this bit of treason will lead to millions of deaths. (Probably, Bush will be blamed.)

“Death to America” is an act of love - as nonthreatening as crossing our border illegally. I don’t take it personally, since I expect the mass casualties from the nuclear attack that Obama is funding to be against the cities, and I live in a rural area.

Don’t worry. Obama doesn’t. He has no reason to.
