Khomeini's family has sided with the opposition |
He announced that the foundation for the publishing of Ayatollah Khomeini's
work is the hub of "anti-revolutionaries." He added that the foundation supports
"leaders of the riots."
Iranian hardliners refer to the protests against the alleged vote fraud in the
June presidential elections which has persisted in Iran over the past six months
as "riots."
He accused various senior reform figures of insulting Ayatollah Khomeini the
leader of the 1979 Revolution and of smuggling people out of the country.
He also accused Ayatollah Hashemi Rafsanjani, Chairman of the Expediency Council
of playing into the hands of "global oppressors" and "sending his law-breaking
son out of the country."
He also remarked that they are prepared to confront the opposition leaders as
soon as the Supreme Leader gives the go ahead.
 In
recent weeks, Hashemi Rafsanjani has been very vocally criticizing the
government and the powerful revolutionary guards for their handling the
post-election events and for intolerance for the opposing views. This
has resulted in sharp attacks against him and his family, most recently
by the Intelligence Minister.
