Tehran shoos Mad Dog for false accusations
TEHRAN(Basirat): Iran’s Foreign Ministry spokesman on Saturday showed strong reaction to U.S. Defense Secretary James Mattis for false accusations he recently directed at Tehran.
"We should remind this American official not to give the wrong address about the
roots and sources of terrorism,” Bahram Qassemi said.
Visiting London on Friday, Mattis said Iran continues to behave as an exporter
of terrorism and still sponsors militant activity.
One of the main reasons why anti-terror efforts fail is giving the wrong address
as to the whereabouts of the roots of terrorism, a trite example of which being
Mattis’s statements, the Iranian spokesman stated.
Mattis, known in the U.S. as the Mad Dog, is well known for his anti-Iran
position. In 2012, he famously remarked that the three primary threats the
United States faced were "Iran, Iran, Iran”.
