#AtheistRepublic
The views and opinions expressed here are the commentators' own and do not reflect the official position of Atheist Republic.
Recently, in Houston, Texas, Shiite Muslim children sang an Islamic religious song with lyrics swearing allegiance to Ali Khamenei, Iran's Supreme Leader. The song lyrics contain messages such as, "I make an oath. One day when you need me, I will be your martyr." The Jerusalem Post reported that the song is called "Salam Farmande" (Hello Commander), and it was released in 2021 by the Persian group "Nation of Imam Hosayn." The song is nominally about Imam al-Mahdi, a messianic figure believed to be the last imam by the Twelver Shia Muslims. Yet, it cleverly blurs the line between Imam al-Mahdi and Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. The children were filmed singing as part of a video created by the Islamic Education Center (IEC) in Houston, Texas. IEC has since removed the video from its Facebook page and Youtube channel. Iranian state-run media broadcasted the footage of the Houston school as propaganda and have constantly promoted the song. Iran's action to "recruit child soldiers and brainwash children" was denounced by many critics.
