The views and opinions expressed here are the commentators' own and do not reflect the official position of Atheist Republic.
Recently, the Association of Qom Seminary Teachers, an influential hardliner group of clerics in Iran demanded more blood and urged the authorities to use more inhumane measures against protesters. The association suggests that anyone who participates in anti-government protests to "instigate fear in society" should be treated as a belligerent. Iran's Sharia laws treat belligerence as punishable by death, crucifixion, severance of limbs, and/or exile. The clerics suggested that "The severing of fingers of one hand and toes of the opposite foot could be effective [as a deterrent punishment]" if a person "instigates fear in society, without the involvement of the [opposition] media and without urging others to follow suit." They also claim that exiling would be ineffective as they believe it would "ruin" the image of Iran around the globe, and the government will suffer the cost. Aside from intellectuals, politicians, and activists in Iran, some former officials and high-ranked clerics denounced these horrific acts.
