While Kerry Notes ‘Substantial Progress’ in Iran Nuclear Talks, Ayatollah Plays to Crowd Heard Chanting ‘Death to America’ | TheBlaze.com:

"Iranian President Hassan Rouhani was more optimistic. “Achieving a deal is possible,” he said. “There is nothing that can’t be resolved.”

But when crowds called for “death to America” during Iran’s Supreme leader Ali Khamenei’s speech Saturday in Tehran — in which he said the country wouldn’t give in to Western nuclear demands — the Times of Israel reported that Khamenei offered this response: “Of course yes, death to America, because America is the original source of this pressure.”
