Top Iranian Cleric Slaps Trump and Netanyahu With a Fatwa, Sparking Global Terrorism Fears
A Fatwa is just a legal ruling through Islamic law (the major form of law in Iran) by a qualified religious scholar (a mufti). Basically they officially recognized Trump and Netanyahu as the enemy and like, no shit, they bombed them. This feels alarmist and as if it is playing on islamaphobic ignorance. We declare people enemies of the state all the time but thats not "inciting terrorism"
Anyone not remembering the news from 39 years ago might say so, yeah, but I remember fatwas from before, maybe you should ask Salman Rushdie about it.
Just because the US and Israeli governments are evil doesn't mean they the Iranian government is comprised of boy scouts, they are fucking evil too.
And just to be clear: any religion is bad. Any extremist religion is evil; see extremist Christians, extremist Muslims, extremist Jews, it doesn't matter the religion, they're fucking evil assholes that should disappear from this world as they will kill us all
That was a good attempt at minimizing the effects of someone of this stature making a statement like this.
It's a public statement saying to the extremely devout religious members that the high officials condone the deaths of these Nations people.
I mean it always has been okay. But now it's even more okay. Again.
Kinda like the high officials of these nations did to their military. So it's all balance right?
But it's not cause the religious extremist will attack soft targets intentionally.
Death to America does not mean death to Americans and the Iranian people know this. They are much kinder to us than we often are to them.
Source: I know Iranians and have taken multiple courses on modern middle eastern history and politics. I am not expert but I know this much.
Israel assassinations are their right to defend themselves.
US assassinations on Iranians are bigly cool.
Iranian anything is terrorism.
This is what is called propaganda.
Yeah right. Now we get fears sparked, yesterday there was no indication that Americans were walking into an attack and even baiting it to excuse their future aggression. No clue, what a shock, Americans would never be so stupid.
Laughable. My own government is terrorizing my people.
And then he showed these men of stupid what true stupidity really was. He said he’d rather kill his own country rather let it live another day after this. He lets the last Floridian go. He waits until democracy is in the ground and then he goes after the rest of the country. He kills their kids, he kills their wives, he kills their parents and their parents' friends. He lets burn down the houses they live in and closes the stores they work in, he kills people that owe them money. And like that he was gone. Underground. Nobody has ever seen him since. He becomes a myth, a spook story that Democrats tell their kids at night. "Vote republican, and donald trump will get you." And no-one ever really believes.
Opposing two war criminals is the right think to do. Funny how they take this fatwa seriously but not the fatwa of khamenei prohibiting nukes
As long as people who aren’t political figures are safe then I think that he is going to have a hard time having non MAGA give a shit.
Last time the US was attacked on its own soil, 3000+ American citizens, most of whom had no direct connection to the US government, were slaughtered.
And we started two fucking wars over it.
There were other terrorist attacks like that, they just didn’t kill that many people. It is also would be much harder to use anything air related because air security has massively been increased.
Global terrorism fears? They've been rife since the terrorist state in East Palestine was formed, and amplified when white lily cowards allowed a Nazi fuckwit back into power.
Netanyahu is the biggest terrorist this Millenium
Putin takes that crown, in both deaths and destruction.
Not really man, Netanyahu is indiscriminately killing civilians, Russia doesn’t do that nearly as much, and besides… Ukraine actually has the weapons to fight back….
Putin is claiming to free the Ukrainian people of Nazis or whatever propaganda they are currently messaging…
Netanyahu and the IDF literally have a map in their offices that show Gaza and West Bank as part of Israel….while simultaneously referring to Palestinian civilians as animals and savages and starving the civilians population, going so far as to open fire on unarmed civilians trying to get bags of flour to feed their families….
Netanyahu is trash, even more so than Putin by a very large margin
Netanyahu is by far the most depraved human being this century. And one can only assume his goal is to beat Hitler at this point…
Pushing other countries into turmoil, risking US civilians and military lives. Again. On the plus side those "immune" to the risks get tax breaks and tell us were doing something right for reasons.
They would not dare assassinate trump or his vice president and the speaker of the house, senate president, along with all the cabinet members. If they did it would totally prove they follow the right god so there is no way they would do that. no way.
Aww shit. Here we go again
After the attack we’ll call it Less A Lago.
Just in time for the dismantling of our intelligence apparatus.
These two assholes are responsible for more global terrorism than any fatwa would.
Trump yes, Netenyahu, yes, but Lets not forget Biden too. 40,000 people+ murdered with his direct assistance. Trump will have a hard time beating that. The worst war criminal democratic president ever.
Clinton killed more in Iraq with deliberate destruction of water treatment plants, sanctions and attacks on energy grids.
All the past few US presidents are war criminals.
