Protestors interrupted an anti-Iran deal speech Dick Cheney was giving at American Enterprise Institute Tuesday, calling the former Vice President a war criminal.

“Why should we be listening to you?” one protestor yelled.

“My generation wants peace, not war,” a protestor said. “No more war-mongering. Dick Cheney is a war criminal.”

As the protestors were escorted out of the event, Cheney smirked and told the audience, “Thank you very much.”

His speech slammed President Obama’s Iran deal, arguing, “The results may be catastrophic.”
