💭 Iran to disband morality police amid ongoing protests, says attorney general
Iran’s morality police, which is tasked with enforcing the country’s Islamic dress code, is being disbanded, the country’s attorney general says.
Mohammad Jafar Montazeri’s comments, yet to be confirmed by other agencies, were made at an event on Sunday.
Iran has seen months of protests over the death of a young woman in custody.
Mahsa Amini had been detained by the morality police for allegedly breaking strict rules on head coverings.
Mr Montazeri was at a religious conference when he was asked if the morality police was being disbanded.
“The morality police had nothing to do with the judiciary and have been shut down from where they were set up,” he said.
Control of the force lies with the interior ministry and not with the judiciary.
On Saturday, Mr Montazeri also told the Iranian parliament the law that requires women to wear hijabs would be looked at.
Even if the morality police is shut down this does not mean the decades-old law will be changed.
Women-led protests, labelled “riots” by the authorities, have swept Iran since 22-year-old Amini died in custody on 16 September, three days after her arrest by the morality police in Tehran.
Her death was the catalyst for the unrest but it also follows discontent over poverty, unemployment, inequality, injustice and corruption.
‘A revolution is what we have’
If confirmed, the scrapping of the morality police would be a concession but there are no guarantees it would be enough to halt the protests, which have seen demonstrators burn their head coverings.
“Just because the government has decided to dismantle morality police it doesn’t mean the protests are ending,” one Iranian woman told the BBC World Service’s Newshour programme.
“Even the government saying the hijab is a personal choice is not enough. People know Iran has no future with this government in power. We will see more people from different factions of Iranian society, moderate and traditional, coming out in support of women to get more of their rights back.”
Another woman said: “We, the protesters, don’t care about no hijab no more. We’ve been going out without it for the past 70 days.
“A revolution is what we have. Hijab was the start of it and we don’t want anything, anything less, but death for the dictator and a regime change.”
Iran has had various forms of “morality police” since the 1979 Islamic Revolution, but the latest version – known formally as the Gasht-e Ershad – is currently the main agency tasked enforcing Iran’s Islamic code of conduct.
They began their patrols in 2006 to enforce the dress code which also requires women to wear long clothes and forbids shorts, ripped jeans and other clothes deemed immodest.

💭 The head of Israeli Defense Forces Intelligence said Iran could attack the World Cup in Qatar
A top Israeli military intelligence official said on Monday that Iran could be mounting an attack on the World Cup, but may hesitate due to uncertainty over how the host Qataris would react.
Major General Aharon Haliva, head of Israeli Defense Forces Intelligence, attended an Institute for National Security Studies (INSS) conference in Tel Aviv on Monday, and spoke about protests taking over the country and how they could impact the World Cup, soccer’s biggest international tournament.
“Iran is considering disrupting the World Cup 2022 in Qatar,” Haliva said.
“However, the only thing preventing them – what will be the Qatari reaction?”
💭 Turkey said a Kurdish militia killed three people in rocket attacks from northern Syria on Monday, in an escalation of cross-border retaliation following Turkish air operations at the weekend and a bomb attack in Istanbul a week ago.
The five rockets hit a school, two houses and a truck in the Karkamis district, near a border gate in Gaziantep province, the governor Davut Gul said, adding six had been wounded. Interior Minister Suleyman Soylu later said three had died.
Broadcaster CNN Turk said the rockets were fired from the Kobani area of Syria, controlled by the YPG militia.
In response to the attack, Turkey’s armed forces were retaliating, the defence ministry said in a statement.
Turkish warplanes had already carried out air strikes on Kurdish militant bases in Syria and Iraq on Sunday, destroying 89 targets, authorities in Ankara said.
Speaking to reporters on his return from a trip to Qatar, President Tayyip Erdogan said the operations would not be limited to just an air campaign and that discussions would be held on the involvement of ground forces.
“It is not limited to just an air campaign,” Erdogan was quoted by Turkish media as saying.
“Our defence ministry and our general staff decide together how much of the land forces should take part. We make our consultations, and then we take our steps accordingly.”
RETALIATION
The defence ministry said the weekend operation was in retaliation for a bomb attack in Istanbul last week that killed six people. Authorities have blamed the attack on the outlawed Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK).
The PKK and Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), which includes the YPG, have denied involvement in the bombing on Nov. 13.
As part of the weekend operations, Ankara said eight security personnel had been wounded in rocket attacks by the YPG from Syria’s Tal Rifat on a police post near a border gate in Turkey’s Kilis province.
The PKK launched an insurgency against the Turkish state in 1984. It is considered a terrorist organisation by Turkey, the United States and the European Union.
Washington has allied with the YPG in the fight against Islamic State in Syria, causing a rift with NATO ally Turkey.

😈 Barbaric acts to silence people in Iran. Security forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran firing live rounds against protesters at a train station in Tehran. Around 450 people have been killed. Bodies in the streets. People chanting in public places infuriates the regime.
The unrepentant Ayatollahs have jailed over 15,000 protesters, and it is believed that their executions have been ordered.
💭 My Note: Daring to touch The Biblical Ark of The Covenant will result in death at the hands of The Almighty God Egziabher.
On 28th November 2020 Muslim soldiers of Ethiopia, Eritrea and Somalia, armed and supported by Iran, UAE, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, China, Russia, Ukraine, USA, and Europe, went on the rampage in Axum, a Holy City in Ethiopia’s northern Tigray region, whose main church is believed by Ethiopian Orthodox Christians to hold The Biblical Ark of Covenant. Over the course of 24 hours, the Muslim soldiers went door to door summarily shooting unarmed young men and boys.
Some of the victims were as young as 13. The soldiers forbade residents from burying slain relatives and neighbors so the bodies lay rotting in the streets for days. Witnesses later described hearing hyenas come at night to feed on the dead.
🔥 Iranians seen setting fire to ancestral home of Islamic Republic founder Khomeini
In video footage, jubilant protesters march alongside the building as it’s engulfed by flames; hundreds protest against regime at boy’s funeral.
Protesters in Iran have set on fire the ancestral home of the Islamic Republic’s founder Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, two months into the anti-regime protest movement, images showed on Friday.
The house in the city of Khomein in the western Markazi province was shown ablaze late Thursday with crowds of jubilant protesters marching past, according to images posted on social media, verified by AFP.
“This year is the year of blood,” some were heard chanting, according to a report by the Dubai-based Arab news outlet Al Arabiya, adding that current Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei “will be toppled.”
Khomeini is said to have been born at the house in the town of Khomein — from where his surname derives — at the turn of the century.
He became a cleric deeply critical of the US-backed shah Mohammed Reza Pahlavi, moved into exile but then returned in triumph from France in 1979 to lead the Islamic Revolution.
Khomeini died in 1989 but remains the subject of adulation by the clerical leadership under successor Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
The house was eventually turned into a museum commemorating Khomeini. It was not immediately clear what damage it sustained.
The protests sparked by the death of Mahsa Amini, who was arrested by the morality police, pose the biggest challenge from the street to Iran’s leaders since the 1979 revolution.
They were fuelled by anger over the obligatory headscarf for women originally imposed by Khomeini but have turned into a movement calling for an end to the Islamic Republic itself.
Images of Khomeini have on occasion been torched or defaced by protesters, in taboo-breaking acts against a figure whose death is still marked each June with a holiday for mourning.
🔥 Perhaps, Serving as a Prelude to The Launch in Qatar of The World Cup
An oil tanker associated with an Israeli billionaire has been struck by a bomb-carrying drone off the coast of Oman amid heightened tensions with Iran, an official has told The Associated Press.
The attack happened on Tuesday night off the coast of Oman, the Mideast-based defense official said. The official spoke on Wednesday on condition of anonymity as they did not have authorization to discuss the attack publicly.
🔥The Third World War began on October 24 / 2013(Ethiopian calendar – on the Days of Saints George and Abune Teklahaymanot) on November 4, 2020, when the Edomites and Ishmaelites opened their Jihad against Axum Zion (on the Ark of the Covenant). The US presidential election took place on this very day.

💭 Even those nations that are one another enemies, like: ‘Israel vs Iran’, ‘Russia + China vs Ukraine + The West’, ‘Egypt + Sudan vs Iran + Turkey’, ‘India vs Pakistan’ have now become friends – as they are all united in the anti-Christian, anti-Zionist-Ethiopia-Conspiracy. This has never ever happened before it is a very curios phenomenon – a strange unique appearance in world history.

💭 Due to the leftist and atheistic nature of the TPLF, because of its tiresome, imported and Satan-influenced ideological games of: „Unitarianism vs Multiculturalism“, the Supernatural Force that always stood/stands with the Northern Ethiopian Christians is blocked – and These Celestial Powers are not yet being ‘activated’. Even the the above Edomite and Ishmaelite entities and bodies who in the beginning tried to help them have gradually abandoned them.
💭 Police Brutality in Iran (Elam)
An amateur video that has emerged on social media appears to show Iranian police officers beating a man, running over him with a motorcycle, and then firing at him.
Police said they will investigate the video posted online on November 1. It is not known when the video was recorded.
Some reports suggested that the footage was recorded in the southern Tehran neighborhood of Naziabad, which has been the scene of anti-regime protests triggered by the death in custody of 22-year-old Mahsa Amini, who was detained in mid-September by Iran’s notorious morality police for “improperly wearing” her hijab.
The 1st video recorded at night in an alley shows about a dozen purported police officers beating a man who is lying on the ground. A person who is recording the scene from a building across the street is heard cursing the aggressors.
“Damn you, damn you,” a male voice says in the video.
At one point, a man in police uniform riding a motorcycle appears to run over the man. Shortly after, another uniformed man beats the victim with a baton, then another one shoots him at close range.
The man initially tries to cover his head with his hands. Later, his legs appear to be motionless.
The man recording the scene is heard saying, “He died, he died.”
The video comes amid a brutal state crackdown on nearly seven weeks of antiestablishment protests that erupted following the September 16 death of Amini.
Women have removed and burned their hijabs, the mandatory Islamic headscarves, while many of the protesters have called for an end to the Islamic republic. “Woman, life, freedom” and “Death to the dictator” have been among the main chants of the protesters.
The authorities have claimed that Iran’s enemies are behind the unrest.
More than 250 people have been killed in the crackdown, according to rights groups. Several thousand more have been arrested, including many protesters as well as journalists, lawyers, activists, digital rights defenders, and others.
Without providing any evidence, Iran’s police chief, General Hossein Ashtari, claimed last month that “counterrevolutionary groups abroad” wore police uniforms and fired into the crowds. He claimed some of the alleged fake police officers had been arrested.
Amnesty International said on Twitter that that the video was “another horrific reminder that the cruelty of Iran’s security forces knows no bounds.”
“Amid a crisis of impunity, they’re given free rein to brutally beat and shoot protesters,” the London-based rights watchdog added while calling on the UN Human Rights Council to “urgently investigate the crimes.”
The shocking scenes have caused outrage among Iranians on social media with many condemning the violence.
“These brutal conditions are a sign that the establishment is on the verge of collapse,” Abdollah Momeni, a prominent activist and former political prisoner, said on Twitter, adding that the violence reflected the regime’s “fear of the people.”
Shadi Sadr, a human rights lawyer and the co-founder of the rights group Justice for Iran, told RFE/RL that the international community needed to do more to pressure the Islamic republic to stop its crackdown on protesters.
“The actions taken by the international community so far have not deterred the Islamic republic from stopping the bloodshed,” Sadr said.
💭 Iranian red flag of revenge over the dome of the mosque in Shiraz.
The last time Iran raised the red flag was when it attacked the US military bases in Iraq, after the death of IRGC commander Qassem Soleimani in January 2020.
Iran believes Saudi Arabia is behind the ISIS attack on a Shia mosquee in Shiraz, a holy site that came under a deadly attack last week — at least 15 people have lost their live. Now Iran is preparing a massive strike on Saudi energy infrastructure.
United States and #Saudi Arabia have shared intelligence with each other that indicates that #Iran may be planning an imminent attack on energy infrastructure in the Middle East, particularly in Saudi Arabia, a US official tells CNN.
🐐 Spirit of the Goat: Problem – Reaction – Solution
Of course, the notorious Islamic regime of Iran would need something huge to divert the attention from the weeks-long anti-Islam demonstrations that have gripped the country.
On the other hand, as Saudi Arabia’s image in America continues to sink it looks as though Obama and Biden told Iran that the USA would no longer protect ‘unfriendly’ Saudi Arabia if they were to attack. President George Bush Senior told the same to Sadam Hussein to invade Kuwait. And now Iran might be ready to attack Mystery Babylon Mecca. An Ethiopian proverb: Oh, Bull! You looked at the grass but you didn’t see the ditch. A fool bull will look only for the green grass without looking out for the danger of toppling over the edge of the steep valley.
Always dependent Saudi Arabia will immediately reach out to the USA, just like Ukraine did, and ask for their protection again. “Blise, blise, Uncle Sam, helb, helb!”
Obama and Biden created the problem, and then they are able to offer the solution.

💭 Some of the most fascinating sites in biblical history are believed to be in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, including Mount Sinai, where Moses heard from God.
Today, the area deep in the northwest corner of the Saudi desert is more populated by camels than people, but if Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman has his way, this area rich in biblical history could soon be lost to a major development project.
The heir to the Saudi throne recently announced the region as the site of his new $500 billion megacity, which might one day house up to nine million people and re-think everything about how people live, work and play.
The project is touted as the most modern, forward-thinking, and climate-friendly city in the world, but few people are aware of the deep biblical history of the area. Those who are aware wonder if the planned mega-project will help or harm the historic value of the region.
Andrew Jones has been studying biblical archaeology for more than a decade. CBN News followed him on a week-long adventure to some fascinating Biblical sites – places almost everyone has read about but few ever get to see.
He believes Mount Sinai is actually located in Saudi Arabia, very close to the proposed site of their new mega-city.
“The biggest issue is that Moses, when he was taking care of Jethro’s flocks, and he had fled Egypt and lived in the land of Midian,” Jones said. “The land of Midian is in the north of Saudi Arabia. There is no archaeological evidence for Midian in the Sinai peninsula. And it was on one of those days when he was out with the flocks that it says he went to the Mountain of God. And in Exodus, it says ‘he saw a burning bush on Mount Sinai’…So then you’ll realize that Mount Sinai is close to where Jethro lived.”
After their miraculous crossing of the Red Sea, the Israelites would have wandered in this desert and water would have been foremost on their minds.
The book of Exodus, chapter 15, says they came to an oasis called Elim, where there were 12 springs and 70 Palm trees. Those 12 springs are still there and at least one is still in use by the Bedouins in the area.
Jones is concerned that any construction project in the area could harm historical sites, such as a mountain range he says is described in the Bible.
South Koreans were inviting satan’s attack by celebrating satanic Halloween rituals – Indians were doing the same by celebrating satanic Diwali – and, of course, Babylon Saudi Arabia is ultimately excelling in this pagan fusing pride project.
So, Iran (biblical Elam) must destroy Arabia. In Isaiah 21:9, Isaiah levels a prophetic oracle against Babylon using the same announcement in Revelation 18:1-2 and Revelation 14:8: “Babylon is fallen, is fallen”:
“The burden against Dumah” (Isaiah 21:11) “The burden against Arabia” (Isaiah 21:13) “All the glory of Kedar will fail” (Isaiah 21:16).
These are all in Arabia, which is destroyed by Iran “Elam” (Isaiah 21:2).
💭 Saudi Arabia, U.S. on High Alert After Warning of Imminent Iranian Attack
Saudis said Tehran wants to distract from local protests, and the National Security Council said the U.S. is prepared to respond.
Saudi Arabia has shared intelligence with the U.S. warning of an imminent attack from Iran on targets in the kingdom, putting the American military and others in the Middle East on an elevated alert level, Saudi and U.S. officials said.
