Iran: Mullah Regime Celebrates Victory; America Must Be ‘Held Accountable’

Khamenei Celebrates ‘Defeat’ of U.S., Mocks ‘Criminal’ Trump: America Must Be ‘Held Accountable’

“The Iranian nation defeated the US,” he declared in another post.

“The Iranian nation defeated the US,” declared Iran’s Supreme Leader, accusing President Donald Trump of inflicting mass casualties and leading a failed bid to reassert American control — insisting “the US has lost its dominance over Iran” and must now “be held accountable.”

In a brazen rhetorical attack by a foreign leader against a sitting U.S. president, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei took to social media and state-linked platforms over the weekend to publicly blame President Trump for unrest in Iran and claim that Tehran had triumphed over America.

“We find the US President guilty due to the casualties, damages and slander he inflicted upon the Iranian nation,” the Islamic dictator wrote on Saturday, asserting that the United States — and Trump personally — were behind what he called a “sedition” orchestrated by the U.S. 

“From the beginning of the Islamic Revolution until today, the US has lost its dominance over Iran,” he wrote, adding that the Iranian nation “struck a major blow” to the “sedition.”
