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.
Ask Salman Rushdie about that.
It took 40 years
He stayed quiet and went in hiding, Trump can’t for the life of him, do that.
Even if the US government went though a lot of trouble faking his death and relocating him he’d be bragging about it on twitter before the end of the week.
not that I wouldn’t love this win for religious fundamentalist posturing, it’s not going to play out like that for Fruity Tootsie the Orange Teletubby. he’s not the same.
Well, now we have a couple million Shi’ite Muslims—some, but not all of which are extremists—believing that they’ll instantly go to heaven if they off him on the planet… which skews the odds a little.
certainly numbers are in favor of it. I just think there’s a little more to it than that. Osama B’ for instance wasn’t born, he was made with American funding to fight communists for decades. and he existed in a time before the current zeitgeist of manufactured consent.
just sayin, I think it’s highly likely the Islam religion will embrace jihad as a more abstract spiritual vibe before they actually follow through on something like that again. like how leftists now do revolution as more of an affectation or how christians do thoughts and prayers to fix injustices in the world. as it was written in the ancient texts “do it or ‘no balls’”
I know. But it’s a religious thing, so any random dude with a mental illness, other than religion itself, can take Holy Action ™.
perhaps you’re right. I’m struggling with the mental justification of allowing myself to think that anyone but Americans can rid ourselves of him. but who knows. maybe it’s okay to think that someone else will do it. here’s hoping allah’s greatest defender is out there somewhere, may he have the most violent brainworms that he needs for the Holy Justice 🙏 or whatever
