Raisi is the henchman of the 1988 massacre. Khamenei stated previously that he seeks a mono-vocalism, calm, and popular election. In June 2009, after the sham presidential election, Khamenei experienced that any disturbance during the election can easily lead to an uprising. Trying to avoid the same fate, Khamenei ousted all Raisi\u2019s rivals through the Guardian Council, including the former speaker of the parliament Ali Larijani, the previous president of the regime Mahmoud Ahmadinejad vice president Eshaq Jahangiri.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:true,&quot;134233118&quot;:true,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">However, it is a no-win situation for Ali Khamenei.
