"You declare war and then you speak of wanting to support the Iranian people,” said Rouhani in comments directed at President Donald Trump.

"You cannot provoke the Iranian people against their own security and interests," he added in a televised speech at a gathering of Iranian diplomats in Tehran.

Rouhani repeated his warning that Iran could shut down the strategic Strait of Hormuz, a vital shipping lane for international oil supplies. Iran's Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) recently issued a similar warning as well.

"We have always guaranteed the security of this strait. Do not play with the lion's tail, you will regret it forever," he warned, according to AFP.

Just a little reminder to Mr. Rouhani. You’re not dealing with Barack Obama any more. President Trump has no qualms about killing Muslims.

Amazing all these western leaders quaking in their boots with their taboos on straightening two bit pieces of sht dictators

Trump is completely justified and a breath of fresh air in this descent into embracing psychopathy of such dictators

I would love to see him smash the faces of friends of Obama and retrieve files on what Obama promised and plotted behind our backs

It won’t take much of their nonsense for Trump to take out their nuclear weapons sites.

How do you reduce the size of a photo? I have refrained from posting some photos because they were too big.

Rouhani better prepare himself for the “mother of all revolutions”.

When the average Iranian Joe and Jane get a hold of his stinking hide, they will probably not be very merciful.

Put width="700" in between IMG and SRC, put a space on either side of it.
