You seem to forget what Kharrazi says doesn't matter.

I endorse negotiations and a softer stance, but with the people likely to boycott upcoming elections there will be no one to really negotiate with other than the hard-liners and that's extremely dangerous.

Also Iran is an absolute dictatorship. A democracy is not one where a 12-man hard-line council vet's everyone who runs for office. The council has already disqualified over 75% of the candidates for majiles. Iranians will boycott this election like they did the last.

Khamenei is the leader of the country and makes all decisions, and he's so out of touch with his people that sometimes i think the governments living on another planet.

Addressing the audience on the anniversary of the historical uprising of a group of clerics in holy city of Qom against former monarchical regime, the Supreme Leader insisted that humanitarian relief aid has nothing to do with relations between the two countries.

Ayatollah Khamenei said with through such measures the Iranian people would never forget the constant and strong hostility of the arrogant regime of the US towards them and their national interests.

Ayatollah Khamenei said the US should know that it must stop hatching plots and exerting different sorts of pressures on the Islamic system, stop opposing the interests of the Iranian people, cease supporting the usurper and criminal regime of Israel, halt doing injustice against the Iraqi and Afghan nations and discontinue blocking the financial and vital assets of Iran.

2. respect would mean

opting for a policy towards them that isn't just a threat of pre-emptive annihilation. Iraq was a brutal dictatorship. I don't feel that they needed to be attacked the way that they were.
