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.
He’s not wrong
So he’s the enemy of god? But maga says he’s the second coming of Jesus and doing the lords work? Same Old Testament thinking too
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.
Babe wake up, abrahamic religion is fighting again.
Oh like trump is relgious
He’s not, but the fundamentalist Christians have decided he’s their hero.
Would it be better if he was, though?
If he would take the ten commandments serious, we would be in a very different place.
The same applies to most of high ranking US politicians though. Imagine a world in which the US would not be constantly murdering and robbing people.
The Bible specifically allows killing as an act of war and considers it different from murder. The protagonists of the book also steal stuff all the time.
These commandments are for controlling behavior inside a society, not outside of it.
Trump is a senile and a deeply unserious person. His existence makes me believe that souls might exist because he very much seems like a person without one. He doesn’t think about his actions deeply which is why I believe that if he suddenly turned religious, I don’t think much would change.
When it comes to scripture, it’s important to learn to separate the wheat from the chaff. If suddenly tomorrow he truly believed that God will judge him and that God is wise and just (I feel like any monotheistic religion has at least these attributes), he would have a mental breakdown cause he’d know he’s almost certainly going to Hell, lol. He’s too far away from just basic decency and morality, too in love with money, power and underaged girls, to ever take one step in that direction though. 🤷

Nah, they could fatwa his fat ass all the same, regardless.
Religion is about control
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”
In many countries Mosques allow homeless people to sleep in them , wash themselves and pray there obviously.
Yeah, no shit. I’m with Iran on this one.

This timeline.
It’s weird when two horrible entities in the world hate each other. Is it popcorn time?
Only in the sense that all our heads will start to pop like popcorn when the nukes start flying.
Iran doesn’t have nukes and their strategy is quite defensive, rather than aggressive. If there is Nukes flying Israel would toss them first and the US would follow in, because they can’t be not throwing bigger bombs than Israel.
Trump: Putting the “fat” in “fatwa” since 1946.

Just how long have you been waiting to use this one?
Iran should have a national twitter for these kinds of burns
Couldn’t have happened to a nicer guy
First Larry David, now Trump!
Hey. If it happens you won’t hear me complain.
He needs to go. The who how and why doesn’t matter so long as he’s gone. That’s a win for the entire human race.
I was gonna say that it would only be unfortunate due to giving them a reason to attack Iran, but history has shown us that doesn’t matter. We’ll do that regardless. If we dont have a reason we’ve been happy to just make one up.
At this point its really just a matter of not wanting to actually fight America on the battlefield.
Has he created a movement, or has there been a movement that has attracted him? As I see it, it’s not just him it’s most of the current GOP leadership, Thiel and the Heritage foundation, Citizens United and a few adjacent organizations that need to go before you can go to a somewhat reasonable functioning society in the US. And frankly the way some Democrats react to the New York primary, they also seriously need to clean house.
Happiness is small moments. Little dots of hope in a sea of despair and misery.
You go to work. Autopilot through the day. Then at lunch or on break you get that sandwich you really love from a nearby shop or your favorite spot. You have that momentary respite before returning to whatever drudgery you’re forced to endure to live in this hole. Now expand that to cover everything all the time. Might be a sandwich. Might be a new episode of your favorite show. A hug from your partner or child.
Tiny moments of joy.
Doe 174 dying is a tiny moment of joy that a whole lot of people will get a whole lot of joy from. So yeah. It’ll be worth it. And I’ll applaud it no matter how it happens.
The problem is the movement he has created. The same is true of many other politicians in other countries.
Is it a movement or is it a trump cult?
My view is I don’t see this ending if he dies.
It matters. He must not be allowed to go quickly or peacefully. He must be tortured live on the internet until it takes him. I won’t be happy with anything less. After all, it’s the cruelty that matters.
I don’t necessarily vibe with the processes to reach the declaration nor do I reflexively support the orator, but I can’t say I disagree
Oh please. And what are you gonna do about it? Dare you. Double dog dare you!
I mean, really lol go ahead
Well, Trump is an insult to anyone with more than one functioning brain cell
He is the enemy of literally everyone, so, I guess God is also on that list 😂
Here’s a comprehensive list why killing the orange Shitgibbon is a bad idea:

Who would have thought that Iran might save 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.
sure as hell wasnt on my bingo card.
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.
