Iran’s top diplomat says Pompeo spreading ‘warmongering lies’
Iran’s Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif denies the Islamic Republic is harboring al-Qaeda terrorists.
Zarif tweets: “From designating Cuba to fictitious Iran ‘declassifications’ and AQ claims, Mr. ‘we lie, cheat, steal’ is pathetically ending his disastrous career with more warmongering lies. No one is fooled. All 9/11 terrorists came from
Pompeo’s favorite ME destinations; NONE from Iran.”
