Judiciary chief: U.S., Israel targeting Iran’s unity
Judiciary Chief Gholam Hussein Mohseni Eje’i said the United States and the Israeli occupation entity are seeking to undermine unity between the Iranian people and officials, warning of continued efforts to foment internal division.
Speaking at a meeting with provincial judicial leaders on Saturday, His Eminence said adversaries have failed to achieve their objectives against the Islamic Republic but may still pursue new plots. He added that their current strategy relies on deception, “soft war,” and psychological operations aimed at weakening national cohesion—the foundation of Iran’s strength.
Ejei stressed that Washington and the Israeli occupation are targeting social harmony, coordination among Iran’s three branches of government, and the relationship between the public and state institutions. He warned that efforts to incite internal discord are intended to compensate for failures in both the field and diplomacy, particularly in light of recent military setbacks and unsuccessful negotiations that have undermined Iran’s position internationally.
His Eminence also dismissed claims by the US president regarding divisions inside Iran as “an illusion,” urging media figures and online activists to remain vigilant against such narratives.
