The decisive way in which Islam treats the enemies of God is among the unquestionable tenets of the Islamic regime. I hope that with your revolutionary rage and vengeance toward the enemies of Islam, you would achieve the satisfaction of the Almighty God.<br>This decree was so unprecedented that the head of the Judicial Council, Abdulkarim Mousavi Ardebili, sought clarification asking whether this decree applies to only those who have been in prison, who have already been tried and sentenced to death or those prisoners who have received limited jail terms and have already served part of their sentences but continue to hold fast to their stance in support of the MEK?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Khomeini\u2019s answer is short but explicit and inhumane:<\/strong><br>\u201cIn all the above cases, if the person at any stage or at any time maintains him [or her] support for the Monafeqin [MEK], the sentence is execution. Annihilate the enemies of Islam immediately. As for the cases cited, use whichever criterion that speeds up the implementation of the verdict.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Following this decree, the Death Commissions were formed across Iran.<br>They only asked one question: Do you still support the MEK Or not.<br>Those who said yes were sent to the gallows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>More than 30,000 of Iran\u2019s most valuable youth were massacred after advocating for freedom In Iran.<br>The perpetrators of this massacre hold the highest positions in the regime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The regime\u2019s new president, Ebrahim Raisi, and the Judiciary Chief, Gholamhossain Mohseni Ejei, are among those officials.
