Irans Khamenei, Ahmadinejad slam opposition
2010-06-05
[Al Arabiya Latest] Iran's top authority accused the pro-reform opposition on Friday of betraying the legacy of Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, as hundreds of thousands rallied to mark the 21th anniversary of the revolutionary leader's death.

Addressing the same memorial prayer rally, President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad warned that the government would not tolerate renewed protests on next week's first anniversary of his disputed re-election vote.

Despite scorching heat, men dressed in black or in a white shroud that symbolized the Shiite Moslem cult of martyrdom and women wearing head-to-toe black veil gathered at a mausoleum south of Tehran to pay homage to Khomeini.


In a clear reference to opposition charges of vote rigging in last year's presidential election, Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said that Khomeini had "boycotted those who were not in line with the pillars of the 1979 Islamic revolution."

"You cannot be a follower of Imam Khomeini if you openly support the disgraceful events of the past months ... and back those who created such events," Khamenei said to chants of "Death to Hypocrites" -- a term used for the opposition leaders.

Cui bono from the Marmara-Instigation?

Iran got: their first alliance with the Muslim Brotherhood; encirclement of the Wahabist entity ("saud arabia"); European slavery; enhanced unity with the Turkish Genocide regime; Turk disassociation from Israel; a possible cut-off of oil sales to Israel from the ABC pipeline.
