Horrifying.
It’s more common than we think.
Power of the mullah and generals trumps all... Anyone can become a mullah. A beggar. A thief. A rapist. Grow a beard, get the brown callous on forehead, wear a short shalwar, turban and hold a tasbi. Instant power over life and death! Aided my khakis.

No regulation. No checks and balances. And there’s blasphemy laws. Fait accompli.
