Mass Execution1988

In the summer of 1988, one month after Ruhollah Khomeini was forced to accept a cease-fire in his eight-year war with Iraq, the fundamentalist ruler of the

mullahs' regime ordered a mass execution of all political prisoners affiliated with the main opposition group People's Mojahedin Organization of Iran, PMOI (Mujahedin-e Khalq, MEK).
Khomeini decreed: "Whoever at any stage continues to belong to the Monafeqin (PMOI) must be executed. Annihilate the enemies of Islam immediately." He added: "Those who are in prisons throughout the country and remain steadfast in their support for the PMOI are waging war on God and are condemned to execution ... It is naive to show mercy to those who wage war on God."
