Iran’s supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei predicts that Israel will not exist in 25 years, and rules out any new negotiations with the “Satan,” the United States, reports the New York Times.

In remarks published Wednesday on his personal website, Khameinei responded to claims that Israel will be safe for that period of time after the nuclear deal:

“After nuclear negotiations, the Zionist regime said that they will not be worried about Iran in the next 25 years. I am telling you, first, you will not be around in 25 years’ time, and God willing, there will be no Zionist regime in 25 years. Second, during this period, the spirit of fighting, heroism and jihad will keep you worried every moment.”

He also emphasized that he would not allow any new negotiations with the U.S. Criticizing politically moderate government officials who call for better relations with the U.S., Khameinei warned that Iranians must not forget that the United States is the “Great Satan... Some want to show this Satan as an angel, but the Iranian nation has pushed this Satan out. We should not allow it to sneak back in through the window.”

He had also criticized government officials for not respecting hardline conservatives who favor the nuclear deal, saying, “Officials of the country must respect the revolutionary young people and stop degrading them saying they are extremist.”

Last week Khameinei said of the U.S. that our "enmity is never-ending because it lost its interests in Iran following the 1979 revolution,” he added. “The United States does not hide its enmity. One smiles while the other one prepares an anti-Iranian move.”
