Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, the supreme leader of Iran, is doing his part to up the rhetoric before nuclear talks between Iran, the US, and four other countries resume in Geneva today.

From the Jerusalem Post:

Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said on Thursday that nuclear negotiations with world powers had revealed US "enmity" towards the Islamic state. He was speaking hours before the resumption of talks in Geneva. "We had announced previously that on certain issues, if we feel it is expedient, we would negotiate with the Satan (the United States) to deter its evil," Khamenei told a gathering, reported by the official IRNA news agency.
