Alireza Solaimi, a member of the Presidium of the Parliament, told the Iran Watch website: “The Leader has not only raised the issue of revenge, but also the issue of qisas is discussed alongside revenge. The Parliament’s view is on revenge and qisas. The sentence for the perpetrators is like that for Salman Rushdie, and the leaders of the United States and Israel are blood-justified and must be killed.

He added: “They will not die peacefully, and every night they must see nightmares.”

Solaimi further said: “Some countries in the region have been put in their place, and some of them will be put in their place soon as well. Those who handed over heaven and earth to the enemy are considered a legitimate target.””
