Philosophers have no troops, and the opposition is crushed. The Revolutionary Guards are my swine, my invincible swords, who are penned in by my blasphemies as you well know, but no one under the sword will have a voice that contradicts me.Your Western doves will be of no solace to you.
The Guards are lean for I have rendered their fat into rancid pools, made them take their bacon into battle against the fools who briefly speak before I torture them into submission, confession, and silence.
The clergy are tangled in prevarication and I have scripted their scripture into paradoxes of their sanctimonious hypocrisy that they so much enjoy under the turbans they have made into crowns.
But I alone have been illuminated by my magnificent terror,as you know, Abdolkarim Soroush.
But no one can speak against me for long while I have the sword and the ocean has space for barred cell phones ,pens, and disgrace.
All are drowned out by my thunder and bloody rain. My reign shall prevail on Earth. Western doves will not save you.
Yours in Hell, your Supreme Leader,
Ali Khamenei
