TEHRAN, May 11 -Iranians have taken to the streets across the country to vent their anger at the US over its withdrawal from a 2015 nuclear deal and President Donald Trump's incendiary rhetoric against Tehran.
TEHRAN, Young Journalists Club (YJC) –Protesters in Tehran and other cities on Friday carried placards which read, "Mr Trump, you are talking nonsense," echoing Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei's remarks on Wednesday.
They also chanted "Death to America", "Death to Israel" and "We fight, we die, but we do not accept any compromise", to voice their denunciation of Trump's decision to leave the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA).
The protesters, mostly participants at weekly Friday Prayers, issued a statement in which they reiterated their loyalty to the Islamic Republic and its anti-imperialist ideals.
"The imbecile Trump's pretexts and insane move following a psychological war and breach of contract and unilateral pullout from the JCPOA and his idiotic remarks against the powerful Iran revealed again the imperialistic nature of the criminal American leaders," they said.
"With God's help, we will stand up and resist until the full destruction of the enemies of Islam and the oppressed nations of the world, especially the world-gobbling America," they said.
The show of unity came following Trump’s pullout from the JCPOA, and his announcement that the US would reimpose nuclear sanctions on the Islamic Republic.
Tehran Friday Prayers leader Ayatollah Ahmad Khatami said, "In his speech, Trump told at least 10 lies against our nation and made insults and accusations."
"The answer to all that nonsense is what this great nation has always been saying: 'America is dead wrong' and 'Mr Trump, you are talking nonsense'," he added.
Only hours after Trump made the announcement on Tuesday, Iranian students and lawmakers took to the iconic Azadi Square in the capital Tehran, setting fire to US flags and shouting anti-US slogans.
Iranian lawmakers also set the Stars and Stripes ablaze inside the parliament and burnt symbolic copies of the nuclear agreement.
