A senior cleric in Iran has issued a fatwa declaring that anyone who threatens Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei is “an enemy of God,” state media has reported.

Grand Ayatollah Naser Makarem Shirazi was responding to a question about any threats made by U.S. President Donald Trump and the leaders of Israel, including prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

A fatwa is a ruling on how to interpret Islamic law issued by a clerical authority.

    And if you happen to wander into a right-wing maga conversation you hear that Trump has ended was with Iran and he should get a Nobel peace prize for it. I wonder what talking point is right.

      Given the backdoors in modern CPUs and routers, that’s not something you want in writing on the interweebs. Say, do you know what approaching re-education drones sound like?

          That’s what geocached samizdat is for, silly boy! Or pirate radio, or pirate OTA TV (HD or NTSC for extra cred).

      Yup, and always has been. Came to this conclusion when I was young and I cannot see it any other way.

        Jesus said very specifically to feed, clothe, and house people in need, and that even letting the poor live on your property and eat your food isn’t enough to keep you out of hell if you don’t actually keep them safe and fed enough. He REALLY insisted, he talked about prisoners rights repeatedly. I’ve never heard of a single church trying to improve prisoners lives. Not one. Someone did the math and discovered that if every building used for religious worship sponsored two people. Housed two homeless people, there would be no homelessness. That’s it. Two people. Now assuming just Christian churches would make those numbers harder, let’s go ahead and double that number even though that’s impossible because the majority of places of worship are Christian in the US by a lot more than 50%, but let’s just pretend it’s 4 people a Christian church. That’s VERY LITTLE EFFORT that would end all homelessness in America.

        Try and build a halfway house anywhere in the US and what happens? Thousands of people suddenly are motivated to show up to town hall meetings and sign petitions!

          “Not in my backyard” is a global phenomenon.

          Then again, so is “it’s a halfway house, not a drunk tank -> it’s a drunk tank”

    During the WW II the Allies did not consider assassinating Hitler, because they knew who was fucking everything up. The lunatic cleric should realize Mango Mussolini is weakening the USA.

        It won’t. There’s too many other assets implanted. Vance is no better and he at least knows when to shut the fuck up.

      Making him a martyr would be a bad consequence.

      Once again failing to hold a president accountable for crimes against the country only keeps that avenue wide open for the future.

      Let’s just hope that if anything ever happens, the event takes large parts of the succession line with it.

        They’ll convenientlyskip over every part in scripture that demands morality and self-restraint, and holds them accountable to their actions. Oh, and literally all of Jesus’ teachings, lol. Merciless “Christians” are a little bit like “dry water”.

        Revelations 13: 16-17

        And he causes all, the small and the great, and the rich and the poor, and the free men and the slaves, to be given a mark on their right hand or on their forehead, and he provides that no one will be able to buy or to sell, except the one who has the mark, either the name of the beast or the number of his name.
