This afternoon at the mullahs’ Friday prayer congregation, Ahmad Khatami, a member of the Iranian regime’s Assembly of Experts, described protestors and dissidents in Iran as those who “wage war against God,” and said: “It is upon the Islamic leader” to “confront these people until their total annihilation.” He added, “In jurisprudence, these people are considered as Mohareb [waging war against God].” He urged the Judiciary to “firmly deal with leaders of the riots in order to teach a lesson to everyone else.” |

Mrs. Maryam Rajavi: "Words are not enough; G8 must impose comprehensive sanctions against the Iranian regime, refer its dossier of crimes to the UN Security Council and support free UN-supervised elections in Iran"
The President-elect of the Iranian Resistance, Mrs. Maryam Rajavi, has welcomed the declaration of the G8 foreign ministers, in which they condemned “violence which has led to the loss of Iranian citizens’ lives,” and urges the Iranian regime to “immediately halt” the violence, while expressing “solidarity with the victims.” But, she said, regrettably, this reaction is not proportional to the clerical regime’s brutal suppression of the uprising of millions of Iranians across the country. Making statements does not suffice and time for action has arrived. The era of appeasement, negotiations and concessions vis-à-vis the Iranian regime has passed. |

Khamenei defends election-rigging, supports Ahmadinejad and refuses to annul election results He cautions defeated faction within regime and threatens popular uprising with bloody suppression Mrs. Maryam Rajavi, President-elect of the Iranian Resistance, described remarks by the clerical regime’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei in today’s Friday prayers sermon as an indication of an irreversible escalation of crisis and a ‘political earthquake’ within the regime. She said Khamenei had insisted on the ridiculous figure of 40 million votes in the sham election and strongly supported Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s presidency and blatantly rejected the request by the rival defeated faction to annul the election result. This, she said, was a blatant threat to crack down ruthlessly on the popular uprising.

Display of Iranians' determination to uproot the religious dictatorship
Mrs. Maryam Rajavi, President-elect of the Iranian Resistance, described the uprising by the Iranian people which continued throughout Saturday till late evening as the culmination of the widespread boycott of the mullahs' elections. The nationwide uprising and brave resistance by the youths against the brutal repression of the suppressive forces, and chants of 'Iranians do not accept disgrace' and 'death to the dictator', which could be heard all over the world, were a stamp of rejection of the mullahs' sham election, she said. |
