IRAN has threatened to restart mass executions and warned of “total war” if Donald Trump intervenes in the ayatollah’s bloody crackdown on protests.
At least 5,000 people have been massacred during brutal clashes, Tehran claims, even though some reports suggest the death toll exceeds 16,500.
Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei has now accused the United States and Israel of provoking “terrorists and troublemakers.”
The tyrant called the United States’ actions “Mohareb,” an Islamic term that means waging war against God, punishable by death.
The deadly uprisings that began on December 28 marked the biggest threat the regime had faced in decades as unrest broke out across the country.
And the ayatollah’s bloody response was the most brutal repression of his 47-year reign.

Terrified Iranians were paralyzed with fear due to the mass killings, and many were too scared to leave their homes. homes.
A strange sense of calm has returned to the Iranian capital and many other cities after the ruthless killings by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC).
Hinting that mass executions will be reinstated, Tehran said on Sunday: “A series of actions such as Mohareb have been identified, which is among the most severe Islamic punishments.”
Some 16,500 people have been killed and between 330,000 and 360,000 injured during the unrest.
The victims include children and pregnant women, according to figures compiled by dozens of overwhelmed hospitals across the country.
It comes after Trump thanked the ayatollah for reportedly postponing the executions of some 800 protesters.
Among those sentenced to death was Erfan Soltani, 26, who was arrested on January 8 and had just 10 minutes to say goodbye to his loved ones before being dragged away for execution.
The freedom fighter is still alive according to his family and human rights groups.
On Sunday, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian fumed that any “unjust aggression will be harsh and regrettable.”
The ayatollah’s crony said any attack on Khamenei would be considered “tantamount to an all-out war against the nation.”
The Middle East had braced for US attacks on the Islamist regime after Trump promised brave protesters that “help is on the way” after 17 days of bloody street clashes.
Iran had promised to speed up trials and executions of those captured during the deadly protests, but Trump later accepted assurances that “the killings in Iran are stopping.”
“The best decision he made was not to hang over 800 people two days ago,” Trump told Politico.
But one Iranian refugee in contact with the protesters told The Sun: “The regime is buying time by lying to Trump and will do whatever it wants once it loses focus.
“People are happy that there have been no executions so far, but that could change very quickly.”
President Trump has also called for an end to Khamenei’s government, calling the outcast a “sick man who should govern his country properly and stop killing people.”
The Ayatollah is also reportedly plotting to expand his on a national scale Indefinite Internet blackout, plunging the country into permanent “digital isolation” as part of the repression.
Khamenei’s henchmen are reportedly hatching a plan to plunge his 92 million civilians into “absolute digital isolation,” according to Filterwatch, a digital monitoring project.
The Islamic Republic is changing its old model of “mass Internet censorship” in favor of a “permanent shift” toward a “sealed intranet.”
Only those with a “security clearance” will be able to reach the outside world, Filterwatch said.
The watchdog said: “This information blocking reflects the extreme securitization of the ‘Communication Blackhole’ project, which makes access to real information news more difficult for domestic users than for external observers.”
Tehran spokeswoman Fatemeh Mohajerani said international web access would not be available at least until the Iranian New Year at the end of March, IranWire reported.
The current blackout is the longest Iran have ever seen, and analysts say it may have been an attempt to help cover up the massacre of protesters.
The protests have erupted in brutality since they began on December 28; Khamenei admitted on Friday that the IRGC had killed “several thousand.”
The protests spread to all 31 Iranian provinces and were reinforced by calls from Reza Pahlavi, son of the late Shah of Iranto overthrow the government.
Among the dead was Iranian textile student Rubina Aminian, 23, who was reportedly shot in the back of the head during a protest in Tehran.
His family They were forced to search through hundreds of bodies to identify her, according to reports.
