Khamenei: West Fails To Bring Iran To Its Knees
[Ynet] Iran's supreme leader says world powers were unable to persuade Tehran to stop nuclear pursuit on English-language Twitter account.
Taking a victory lap, hopefully prematurely.
A Twitter account Iran experts believe is run by the office of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said on Tuesday "arrogant" powers had tried hard to bring the Islamic Theocratic Republic to its knees but had failed.

In a comment apparently referring to the failure of Iran and six world powers to end a dispute about Iran's nuclear goals, a message on the English-language account said: "In the nuclear issue, arrogants have made their best to bring Iran to its knees but they were not able and will not be able to do so."

The term arrogants, or arrogant powers, is used in Iran to refer to the United States and its Western and Israeli allies. Washington cut ties with Tehran a year after the 1979 revolution that ushered in Iran's Shiite Moslem theocracy.

Iran and the six powers failed on Monday for a second time this year to resolve their 12-year confrontation over Tehran's nuclear ambitions, and gave themselves seven more months to overcome the deadlock.

In a second tweet, Khamenei appeared to accuse the West of meddling in Middle Eastern turmoil, saying Islamic hard boyz had turned Arab Spring uprisings into Moslem infighting "in line with arrogants' goals".

The message referred to "takfiri
...an adherent of takfir wal hijra, an offshoot of Salafism that regards everybody who doesn't agree with them as apostates who most be killed...
" hard boyz â Sunnis who proclaim followers of other sects of Islam to be infidels and therefore legitimate targets of holy war.

A third tweet from the same account said: "US-led coalition against ISIS is a blatant lie. By the means of ISIS, US wants to keep the war among Moslems alive," using an acronym for the Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not really Moslems....
bully boy group.

The United States and its allies have launched air strikes on the Sunni Moslem fighters who have seized territory in Syria and neighboring Iraq.
The Washington Free Beacon adds:
Iran: ‘Americans Have Very Clearly Surrendered’

Rouhani: 'Today we have a victory'

The "Americans have very clearly surrendered to Iran's might, and this is obvious in their behavior in the region and in the negotiations, and the enemies' reservations vis-a-vis Iran are completely felt," Major General Mohammad Ali Jafari, commander of the Iranian Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC), was quoted as saying late Monday following the announcement of an extension in talks.
