Hawzah News Agency (Tehran ,Iran) - Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei has warned that Iran will cut the nuclear deal with six world powers into shreds if the other party chooses to tear it up.

Ayatollah Khamenei also dismissed Western criticisms of Iran’s conventional missile program, noting, "Why do you, yourself, have missiles? Why do you have atomic bombs?"

The Leader went on to say that Iran has managed to stand against "The US hegemony" and make progress under pressure and sanctions, adding that Washington’s anger stems from the Islamic Republic’s strong role in the fight against the Takfiri Daesh [or ISIS or ISIL] terror group.

"The US is the agent of the international Zionism; the US is the creator of Daesh and the Takfiri current; Do you expect the US not to be angry with the very force which is standing against Daesh? They are furious because the Islamic Republic has managed to thwart their plots" in regional states, including Iraq, Syria and Lebanon, Ayatollah Khamenei pointed out.

Leader of the Islamic Revolution  further denounced Trump’s latest insults against the Iranian nation, saying it would be "a waste of time to respond to such blatherings and nonsensical remarks by the foulmouthed US president."
