This man will not bow for America in terms of the nuclear weapon. And I tell you that Donald Trump will not succeed in getting rid of Iran, because God is with Iran. “Iran does not mean harm with their nuclear weapon. Everybody should build its own defensive system. Is America not building its own too? Let’s be considerate. America wants to oppress the world, not knowing that it can’t be possible. "Why can’t America stop Israel? Is Israel a Christian city? Are they doing God’s will in Israel? Of course, we just have that place as the traditional place of Christianity, but the heart of their prime minister is of satanic (sic). So, Benjamin Netanyahu (Israel leader) is turning Israel to a satanic city, not God’s city. That is the truth. The holy city is wicked.” Ayodele added: “So, my advice for Donald Trump is to calm down; stop this war yourself.” The cleric’s video can be watched in full below via a Facebook post: Legit.ng recalls that Khamenei on Thursday, March 12, issued his first public statement since taking over as supreme leader following the assassination of his father, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, on February 28, the first day of the United States and Israeli assault on Iran. In written remarks read on Iranian state television, Mojtaba Khamenei said Iran would attack all US bases in the region unless they were shuttered immediately and pledged to maintain the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, according to Al Jazeera. Iran’s new supreme leader Mojtaba Khamenei may pursue nuclear weapons as the country’s key sites lie in ruins amid the US/Israel-Iran war.
