Iran’s revolutionary war on America’s homeland

The regime established a network of proxies across the Middle East, established the Quds forces to monitor and target Jews and Israelis around the world, erected hundreds of mosques and Shia institutions globally to promote their ideologies, and fomented a global narrative that holds America responsible for much of the suffering around the world. Recently, English-language-Ijtihad Network published the words of senior Iranian Grand Ayatollah Makarem Shirazi as a fatwa on their website: “Any person or regime that threatens the Leader or Shīʻa Marjaʻ is considered as Muḥārib Allāh… It is necessary for all Muslims around the world to make these enemies regret their words and mistakes… a Muslim who abides by his Muslim duty…will be rewarded a fighter in the way of God, God willing.” Like the fatwa against Salman Rushdie, the call for blood of a “Mohareb” lingers as an open call until one day a lone wolf makes it actionable. Whether the lack of coverage was an oversight or the media’s ignorance of what the scene represented, the ambition of the Islamic Republic could not be more clear.
