Overview

  • Mansour Emami, head of West Azerbaijan’s Islamic Da’wah Organization, vowed 100 billion Toman (about $1 million) to anyone who kills President Trump.
  • The thaar.ir fundraising page continues to display more than $40 million in donations claimed for assassinating Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
  • Two Grand Ayatollahs issued fatwas calling for Trump’s execution and ten state-appointed clerics labeled both leaders as “ungläubige Krieger” in an open letter.
  • On July 13, President Masoud Pezeshkian publicly rejected any government or Supreme Leader sanction for fatwas targeting individuals.
  • The episode underscores a growing schism between extremist clerical factions and Iran’s official leadership over violent retaliation tactics.
