‘Waging war against Iran insane’

Waging war against the peace-seeking, civilized and hospitable Iranian nation amounts to sheer insanity, IRNA quoted Granoff as saying on Sunday.

Unfortunately, the US media portray a bleak picture of the Iranian nation while they are one of the most peace-loving people in the world, he added.

The American lawyer pointed to Iran’s ancient history and established civilization and emphasized that the Iranian nation has never initiated a war against any country.

He asserted that US authorities committed a major blunder by supporting Iraq’s executed dictator Saddam Hossein during the 1980-88 Iraqi imposed war against Iran.

Granoff believes that instead of making up for their past mistakes and amending their policy approach towards the Iranian nation, the US officials continue to commit errors by threatening Iran with military strikes and imposing sanctions on the country.

Participating in the ceremony marking the 33rd anniversary of the triumph of the 1979 Islamic Revolution of Iran held at the United Nations headquarters in New York on Thursday, Granoff congratulated the Iranian nation and government on the occasion.

The West has intensified sanctions against Iran as American and Israeli war rhetoric against the country continues.

The US, Israel, and their Western allies accuse Iran of pursuing a military nuclear program and have used this allegation as a pretext to convince the United Nations Security Council to impose four rounds of sanctions on Iran.

Rejecting the allegations, Iran says it has every right to peaceful nuclear activities as an International Atomic Energy Agency member state and a signatory to the Non Proliferation Treaty.
