Argachi says Americans are 'fed up' with Israel dragging the US into 'forever wars'.
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Arjechi called out US President Donald Trump following statements that attributed the Republican midterm election losses to public hostility toward Israel, and claimed that the US electorate is exhausted by subversion to regional military campaigns.
Reacting on social media to a segment of Trump's interview on CBS News' 60 Minutes, the top diplomat in Tehran highlighted the stark contradiction between Washington's policy decisions and local public opinion.
"POTUS clearly recognizes that the vast majority of Americans are disgusted by Israel. Amazingly, he seems confused as to why," Argachi wrote.
"Americans are probably tired and weary of Israel humiliating American administrations into forever wars. They had enough. So is our area. ".
Argachis' words directly relate to the domestic fallout within the US, as the joint US-Israeli military escalation against Tehran continues to provoke severe global economic instability, energy price increases and direct military entanglements across the region.
