IRONY: Khamenei letter tells Obama ‘that some of the six states participating in negotiations are not trustworthy at all’

Iran’s Ayatollah Ali Khamenei took to Twitter to mock President Obama just eight minutes after the president finished his press conference explaining the nuke deal, the Daily Mail reports.

IRONY: ‘You are well aware that some of the six states participating in negotiations are not trustworthy at all,’ Khamenei wrote in a stunning rhetorical act of jiu-jitsu. posted online just 8 minutes after Obama’s press conference concluded.

American opponents of the arrangement, which still has to earn approval from Congress, have complained that Iran can’t be trusted to hold up its end by dramatically scaling back its uranium mining and processing, and starving for a decade what was thought to be a robust but covert nuclear weapons program.

Not so, says the Ayatollah: It’s the Europeans, Chinese and Russians who have to be monitored.

The final text of the deal, he warned in an awkward tweeted English translation, ‘needs careful scrutiny and must be directed into the defined legal process.’

Obama’s press conference ran long, ending at 2:33 p.m.

Khamenei’s tweet hit the Internet eight minutes later.
