Rouhani Wishes Jews a Blessed New Year

[fairandbalanced]

During his stormy eight-year tenure, Iran's former president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad sparked international outrage for numerous inflammatory comments. Among them: calling for Israel to be "wiped off the map" and suggesting the Holocaust was a myth.


His newly inaugurated successor apparently has a different view. On Rosh Hashana, the Jewish New Year, Hasan Rouhani took to Twitter to send the following message:

As the sun is about to set here in #Tehran I wish all Jews, especially Iranian Jews, a blessed Rosh Hashanah. pic.twitter.com/tmaf84x7UR

Meanwhile, the same Jews he wishes a happy new year, will be the target of Hezbollah's rockets, Iran's proxy terrorist organization occupying Lebanon, should the US attack Syria. LOL
