A new threat has been issued by Ayatollah Mohsen Araki, a senior member of Iran’s Assembly of Experts against the United States and Isreal should any harm any harm hit the Supreme leader of Iran, Ali Khamenei. In a terrifying escalation of rhetoric, he threatened a conditional declaration of \u2018Global Jihad\u2019.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The statement explicitly warns that if Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei is targeted in any way, the “highest Shiite authorities” will mobilize followers worldwide for unrestricted holy war.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

This threat appears to be a direct response to the rumors of U.S. and Israeli “decapitation strikes” aimed at the regime’s leadership following Tehran’s 24-hour nuclear breakout claim. By invoking a “Global Jihad,” Araki is effectively threatening to activate sleeper cells and proxy groups far beyond the Middle East, transforming a regional conventional war into a global asymmetric conflict.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Analysts note that this is the first time such explicit religious terminology has been used by a high-ranking official in this crisis, signaling that the regime views this as an existential spiritual struggle, not just a political one. It raises the stakes for any preemptive strike, as the consequences would no longer be limited to missile exchanges but could trigger coordinated attacks in Western capitals.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
