NCRI – The Iranian people must be told who ‘not to vote for’ in June’s sham presidential election, a senior cleric has declared.
Cleric Ahmad Alamolhoda – a member of the Guardian Council which has the right to ban candidates – said: “The most important issue is that of defense, and that people means people must participate.
“We must make the red lines clear to people and make them understand who not to vote for.
“If we tell people who not to vote for, then we don’t need to tell them who to vote for. We should put all the deviant factions in one group before the people so that they don’t vote for them.”
Alamoloda added in the speech to Basiji clerics in Mashhad, where he is Friday preacher: “To do this, we must be ready to sacrifice many things, friendships and responsibilities.
“The opposition is not going to be like that of the 2009 elections, but something similar to the 2009 sedition will be part of a much bigger picture.
“The issue is complicated. Don’t think that during this election period the secular groups will seem as they did before.”
On January 26, he said the clerical regime has reached “a very crucial juncture in its life and is facing a historical turn.” He stressed the next president should be fully subservient to Khamenei.
Mullah Alam al-Hoda, the Friday prayer leader in Iran’s second largest city, said the regime is at a “watershed. The turn might be vey rocky or the river bend may become very narrow. Our system [regime] is going off a cliff and we are confronting the whole world on the other side.”
