TEHRAN — Gunmen shot dead a prominent Iranian cleric on Thursday in the northwest province of Kurdistan, the official IRNA news agency reported, in the latest attack to shake the region.
Mullah Mohammed Sheikh Olislam, who represents the province in Iran's top clerical body the Assembly of Experts, was shot twice in the head by unknown attackers at a mosque in Sanandaj, Kurdistan's main city.

‘Open Season’ has been declared on all Hardliners in Iran. Whether they are Clerics or Bazzari, with warehouses to burn as well.

I would like to know if he was on the “pro-reform” side or on ammanutjobs side.

It takes TWO bullets in the head to kill these guys. Anything worth shooting once is worth shooting twice. You want to make sure, you know.

From the article:
“An imam in Sanandaj, a Sunni Muslim seen as an ally of Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, was killed on Saturday by unknown assailants, media reported.
A judge from the city’s revolutionary court also survived an attack on September 9, IRNA said.”
Sounds like they were hardliners. But I find it odd that a SUNNI cleric would be an ally of Ahmadinejad.
