I’m not sure how this doesn’t qualify as a US citizen’s act of treason.
Notorious anti-Semite and leader of the Nation of Islam Louis Farrakhan led Iranians in the chant “Death to America” while on a solidarity visit to the Islamic Republic, reported The Algemeiner.
The visit came ahead of the re-imposition of crushing U.S. sanctions against Iran scheduled to go into effect today, November 5.
The event featuring Farrakhan was held on Sunday, November 4, the 39th anniversary of the takeover of the U.S. embassy in Tehran in 1979.
Farrakhan also led the crowd in the chant “Death to Israel.” He recently referred to Jews as the “synagogue of Satan” and “termites.”

More from Farrakhan:
Farrakhan has been feted in the U.S. by prominent women “activists” including sharia-apologist Linda Sarsour and her co-chair of the Women’s March on Washington Tamika Mallory, who praised Farrakhan as “GOAT (Greatest of All Time.)”
Sarsour has appeared with Farrakhan at an event and has refused to condemn him.
Referring to America as the “enemy,” Farrakhan declared in Iran that “America has never been a democracy.”
