Iranian Foreign Minister Javad Zarif—who is scheduled to hold one-on-one talks with Kerry this evening in Vienna—”frequently shouts at Western diplomats” in such a forceful manner that bodyguards have hurriedly entered the negotiation room on occasion worried that an incident might occur, according to one Iranian diplomat involved in negotiations who spoke anonymously with the Iranian press earlier this week.
On one occasion, Zarif’s shouts were so loud that a member of the Iranian delegation entered the negotiation room to check on the players, according to the report, which was independently translated for the Free Beacon.
Upon entering, the Iranian official was informed by European Union Foreign Policy Chief Catherine Ashton, a chief western negotiator, that Zarif was just shouting and she had gotten used to it, according to an independent translation of the report.
The report of Zarif’s aggressive behavior is consistent with previous reports claiming that Iranian negotiators tend to treat their Western counterparts—particularly the Americans—with scorn.
Iranian diplomat Abbas Araghchi, another member of the negotiating team, is reported to have said in an interview that during past negotiations in Geneva, Zarif “shouted” at Kerry and spoke to him in a way that was likely “unprecedented” in the history of U.S. diplomacy.

the CULTURE of meccaists actually encourages DISDAIN

young on encountering scores of persons from the Indian subcontinent (Pakistan and India)------that muslims were openly
disdainful of hindus. Little flower child that I was----I was horrified. For the record---IRANIANS are disdainful of EVERYONE---who is not a muslim Iranian ---that includes other
muslims especially Pakistanis and arabs. My own hubby was
born in a shariah cesspit----The family legacy is fascinating-----
in that shit hole-------jews ---on the public by way-----essentially
had to walk in the gutter. A fascinating "LAW" was that on passing a meccaist------the kaffir had to pass on his LEFT----
which somehow is a symbol in the mind of the mecca monkeys
of-------an "inferior status"
It's CULTURAL------such cultural habits virtually never go away------they have a serious effect on both behavior and mind
