Tehran Condemns Deal With AmericaBy Associated Press TEHRAN, Iran — Two hard-line newspapers seen as speaking for Iran's clerical establishment called yesterday for Iraqis to oppose a strategic framework deal with America, Tehran's first public condemnation of the arrangement. 
The papers accused Iraqi Prime Minister al-Maliki of caving in to American demands over the pact. Mr. Maliki's government and America began negotiations in March on the deal meant to provide for long-term bilateral ties and a status of forces arrangement regulating American military operations in Iraq. The Jomhuri-e-Eslami daily said in a front-page editorial that the deal would be "capitulation the U.S. has imposed on the oppressed Iraqi people," and urged Iraqis to turn to "a popular revolution" that would bring about the "expulsion of the occupiers" from Iraq.
