\"iran-zolnouri\"<\/p>\n

Ahead of the Iranian regime\u2019s sham presidential elections, factional feuding has increased. The regime\u2019s wrong policies, corruption, and oppression have turned the society into a powder keg. Thus, rival factions try to blame one another.<\/p>\n

In this regard, Mojtaba Zolnouri, Chairman of the Security Commission in the regime\u2019s parliament, lashed the rival faction on Thursday.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe officials\u2019 double standards [in treating people] and their lack of motivation about the [regime\u2019s] ideals have caused misery in the country,\u201d Zoulnouri said on Thursday, according to the state-run Tasnim Newsagency<\/a>, an outlet linked to the regime\u2019s Revolutionary Guards (IRGC) Quds Force.<\/p>\n
