INU - On June 19th, a statement was issued by Iran’s Assembly of Experts in response “to doubts regarding people’s role in an Islamic state.”
This statement was issued under orders from Supreme Leader, Ali Khamenei, and signed by Assembly chair, Ahmad Jannati, and points to the divide in the regime’s leaders and the increased power struggle that followed the presidential election last month.
It says, “In recent days there have been publications regarding the Islamic state’s ‘legitimacy’ and ‘acceptance’, and mullahs’ rule (velayat) based on the people’s vote, citing the words of Imam Ali (first Imam of Shia Islam)… these remarks are in contrast and unfit in reference to our religious pillars.”
