"Death to Russia"
"Minister of Slogans" shouts "Death to America...Israel... England", crowd shouts back "Death to Russia"!
Global Voices, Hamid Tehrani: Traditionally at Friday Prayer, people are encouraged to chant “Death to America” and “Death to Israel” but today, they defiantly shouted “Death to Russia”, in referring to opposition accusations that Russia has been involved in training repression forces of the regime. In the following video, recorded from a short distance of the outdoor gathering, you can hear a male voice over the loudspeaker screaming “Death to America”, “Death to the hypocrites” and “Death to England”, while the crowd roars “Death to Russia!” in response EVERY time

Focus on the source of the video (Global Voices, Hamid Tehrani:), and then contemplate the statement declaring :
Quote: "Traditionally at Friday Prayer, people are encouraged to chant “Death to America” and “Death to Israel” "
So, we can conclude that Islamic hatred of America and Israel is understood to be tradition, as well as religious indoctrination.
Such honesty and clarity is curiously refreshing don't you think?
The reason they chanted "Death to Russia" and "Death to China" is because those were the two prominent states that immediately accepted the results of the Iranian elections as legit and congratulated Ahmadinejad. Ayatollah Rafsanjani responded to the chants of "Death to Russia" and "Death to China" with, "Stop. You shouldn't wish death upon anyone." I need to find the link, but it's a true story. Now isn't that comical?
