Iranian protestors demonstrating against the theocratic regime will face harsh punishment with absolutely zero leniency, Iran’s top judge has warned — as footage emerged Friday of mosques burning on the streets of Tehran amid the ongoing riots.
Chief Justice Gholamhossein Mohseni Ejei, the head of Iran’s judiciary, issued the stark warning after President Trump vowed to back those peacefully demonstrating across the country.
Signaling a potentially violent crackdown, Ejei vowed the punishment for rioters would “be decisive, maximum and without any legal leniency.”
The video has been shared by Iranian rights activist Masih Alinejad. “One of Iran’s biggest mosques burned during uprising. Don’t panic. This isn’t chaos. It’s 47 years of rage. For 47 years, after every Allahu Akbar from these minarets, innocent Iranians were executed by an Islamist regime,” she said in a post on X.

I am warning you! Splat!
Maybe Chief Justice Gholamhossein Mohseni EjeI needs to find a bunker.
Hopefully he’ll suffer the fate of “Judge” Roland Freisler.
Well how does that feel burning your stuff ?
Judge need to get the Al-Zutt treatment.
Iranian protesters desecrated Grand Mosque and burned Quran in Sarableh, Ilam.
Looks like the only survial method is overthrowing the government, then.
She is getting choked up over President Trump retweeting a video of someone getting to the Iranian embassy in London, tearing down the current flag and hanging the imperial Iranian flag while the crowd chants long live the king.
Yep, watching it now.
Is that Farsi for in-the-butt treatment?
Is that Farsi for in-the-butt treatment?
What? What?
Ass sphincter says what...
so they will be treated like Republicans are treated in the American justice system. Got it.
The response to this judge should be to burn even more mosques!
They must not have an AG like “Non-Stick” Pam Bondi.
I suspect that the people will remember this and give Ejei some of exactly that which he has promised them.
They aren’t joking about killing protestors.
I hope Trump drops a few bunker busters on the IRGC. This is heartbreaking. The protestors are very brave
