“The US govt’s long-term performance has led to its being abhorred by a major part of the world, its warmongering, helping notorious governments, training terrorists, unconditional support for oppression and the like,” Khamenei said, adding that despite large sums spent to show itself as being appealing to global public opinion, not only isn’t the US attractive, but its government and system have turned into an abhorrent entity in much of the world.

“This is why the US flag is burnt is many countries, including in the US,” he underlined.

“Even governments that are friends with the US, when they speak up and express what they really feel, one can see that they detest the US government and politicians, and they distrust and disregard them. A part of this hatred towards the US is due to the presence of these men heading the current US government. On one side there’s Physician Trump!! On the other side is the lowly, ranting Secretary of State who keeps making illogical, nonsensical comments here and there.”

He concluded as follows: “Odious people in the US govt aren’t the only source of hatred for the US. US’s long-term performance, aggression in Afghanistan, Iraq and Syria, their blatantly saying they send troops to for its oil and their support for ISIS and the Zionist regime have led to hatred for the US. Their warmongering, promoting terrorism, injustice and more recently their disgraceful management of the COVID19 pandemic are some of the factors that have led to global hatred toward US rule.” (ILKHA)
