A close mullah advisor to Iran's so-called supreme leader, mullah Ali Khamenei, mullah Jannati has condemned non-Muslims, saying they "cannot be called human beings but are animals who roam the earth and engage in corruption." Mullah Jannati made the controversial remarks on Sunday at a ceremony in north-eastern Iran to commemorate the 'martyrs' of the Revolutionary Guards and the (1980-1988) war against Iraq.

"If the Islamic Republic of Iran is still standing on its feet, we owe it to our martyrs. If it was not for our martyrs, we would not have these precious young men with vivid Islamist views," mullah was quoted a saying.

Mullah Jannati heads the powerful Guardian Council, a non-elected body made up of clerics and lawyers, which can veto legislation. As well as being a top aide to Khamenei, he is a mentor of Iran's hardline president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.

People who think this way - dehumanizing your fellow man - do so as a means of establishing a psychological framework in which murder of the non-human "animals" can be justified.

Isn't it nice how animals can convert to humanity?

Likewise I'd like to think that Muslims cannot be called human beings, but unfortuantely they are and we're stuck with them.

I'm feeling the love.

Of course it's the kind of love that decapitates infidels with a dull knife.

That Nazis said the same thing about the Jews.

And remember the mullah have control of the military and all weapons not the president of Iran. So the president is just a stooge for the radical Islamic leadership who have enslaved their people.

Got a reference for that?

This is not 2 thousand years ago when fear and hatred of those who were different was the norm. Also, unlike then, there is Iran's zeal to acquire a nuclear capability that must be considered.

Is that one of them indirect messages?
