@haymes_joshua He's a comedian. He's joking. How low does your IQ have to be to use a comedian's skit as evidence when discussing Halakha or Sharia law? 🤣
A cleric tied by marriage to Iran's ruling family has declared the Islamic Republic obsolete and is openly recruiting to replace it, not with democracy, but with something harder.
In a video from a religious gathering, Mohammad-Bagher Kharrazi, head of Hezbollah of Iran and brother-in-law of one of the late leader's sons, told followers a shadow government already exists, with "60 thick volumes" of plans for converting the Islamic Republic into an "Islamic government." His method: each follower recruits 17, until 250,000 stand ready to surround the ministries.
He called President Pezeshkian "this buffoon," claimed 40 years of friendship with Mojtaba Khamenei, and said the new leader's thinking is "far more radical than his father's."
Days earlier, the leader's office branded his previous claims entirely false.
Five months into the new reign, the loudest plan to end the Islamic Republic comes from inside its family circle. And it points toward more theocracy, not less.

When the regime's terrorist proxies such as Hezbollah reject an agreement mere hours after it is announced, it becomes impossible to separate what the Iranian diplomat says from what Tehran's militias do. Both operate within the same system, each playing its assigned role.
The body of Khamenei known as the “representative of God on Earth” was kept preserved in a refrigerated facility for several months before burial and was carried in a truck that had previously been used to transport food products such as pork and alcohol.
There are 550 million Shias worldwide and 95 million Iranians.
Among them, 13 million Iranian regime employees and their families and some Khamenei lovers participated to his funeral, along with a few million others from outside Iran.
Sayyed Razawi studied in the same hawza as I did and during the same period. Although we differ on a number of issues, I support his independence and respect his willingness to speak and act according to his convictions rather than political pressure.

I strongly condemn the disruptive and disrespectful behaviour of this individual, a supporter of the Iranian government, who chose to disturb a gathering held in honour of Imam Hussain (a.s.).
@PersiaPeople_@araghchi Being Persian doesn’t mean rejecting other languages. Like the French embracing English, preserving cultural identity is not incompatible with speaking multiple languages.
But Araghchi knows what was done to me at the Ministry of Intelligence in Qom: imprisoning and torture.
The United States revoked the permanent resident status of three Iranian nationals with ties to the Islamic Republic and placed them in immigration custody, the State Department said on Saturday.
In a statement, the department said Secretary of State Marco Rubio had terminated the green card status of Seyed Eissa Hashemi, Maryam Tahmasebi and their son, who are now in the custody of Immigration and Customs Enforcement pending removal.
“Eissa Hashemi is the son of Masoumeh Ebtekar, also known as “Screaming Mary,” the infamous spokeswoman for the Islamist militants who stormed the US Embassy in Tehran in 1979 and held 52 Americans hostage for 444 days,” read the statement.

Iran’s supreme leader instructed all military units to stop firing, according to a statement read on state-run IRIB about two hours after President Donald Trump announced a ceasefire deal, CNN reported on Tuesday.
“This is not the end of the war but all military branches should follow the Supreme Leader’s order and cease their fire,” the statement said.
After 47 years, it’s clear their ideology struggles to gain support, even at home.
Some young from Africa showed loyalty, while most Shia scholars stayed silent. The reopening of Hormuz shows things are going back to the old status quo, but tensions could flare up again.
Alhamdulillah, a ceasefire has been reached between Iran and Israel/USA, affecting the Gulf region as well.
It’s been a rough few weeks for the Iranian regime: they lost over 50 high-ranking officials, key military sites were destroyed, and most of the population stayed passive.
