Iran's prior government was a US-supported monarchy and torture regime, with Israel also credibly accused of state-sanctioned ethnic cleansing, rape and torture. Arab resentment of American and Israeli occupation is justified much in the same way as the occupied Raj demanding death to Britain.

Today, the Likud regime recycles this same language specifically to foment racial violence in occupied territory, which should be sanctioned by America but isn't: https://www.jta.org/2026/05/14/israel/death-to-arabs-chanted...

What does that have to do with the Islamic Republic's bragging of conquering/ending Persian civilization in the name of Islam? A group should not celebrate conquering/ending a civilization. Especially so called religious leaders.

Iran is not Arab and is not occupied by Israel.

In your second statement you seem to callout the behavior, yet you defend it in the first? Calling for the death of random societal/structural groups, be that entire countries/societies, ethnic group, etc, is unacceptable behavior. It is especially unacceptable when it is done by powerful political leaders. It is outright evil when it is done by religious leaders.
