Iran's president warned Wednesday that European soldiers in the Mideast "could be in danger" after three nations challenged Tehran over breaking the limits of its nuclear deal
President Hassan Rouhani's remarks in a televised Cabinet meeting represent the first direct threat he's made to Europe as tensions remain high between Tehran and Washington over President Donald Trump withdrawing the U.S. from the deal in May 2018.

Just a bit of backstory, Iran has a major sanction vote coming up in the UN. If those sanctions are approved, the effect will be even more overwhelming. The Euro's are key to approving the sanctions.

Irrelevant.  China and Russia will veto any attempt to reimpose sanctions, so it doesn’t matter whether the Europeans are onboard or not.

I think Iran is way more concerned about internal strife and hopes to unite the country by plunging them into war

Iranian government officials making threats against Europeans will certainly help their cause.

Once again, the Democrat Party has completely misinterpreted the situation with Iran.  The Democrats would have done themselves a huge favor if they had green lighted the President’s actions in regards to Iran instead of siding with the outlaw state hell bent on the destruction of western society.

If it weren't for The Democratic Party here in The US, the Iranian Regime would have no friends at all.

Iran needs a war with their own choosing.

A war with the US won't work

The dems are perfectly fine with Iran killing our soldiers and citizens as well as soldiers and citizens from allied nations just as long as it is not to many at one time, as that would bring to much attention.

I'd say that, if you want to throw your weight around, threatening Europeans is about as safe as it gets.

I mean, they let their own "refugees" slap them around.

France surrendered already. Germany can field 200 troops and a tank. I Iran has a chance.

Easy, the ones who advocated signing the deal in the first place. Understand that in 2007 when Mohammed Elbaradei first recommended the deal, nobody wanted to sign it, the cash was bribe money TO sign it...

Threatening countries with acts of war and violence if they don't vote the way you want in a UN resolution.

Man, that seems like it would be, in itself, a reason to tighten sanction on IRAN.

We should have invaded and destroyed that movement in 1979.  Would have made the world a better place.  Instead, we had Jimmy "Worst President Ever" Carter and recently, Barack Hussein "publicly bow to the Ayatollah" Obama.
