Turns out, 86yo Ali Khomeini issued a Fatwah against the devt or use of #NuclearWeapons as far back as the late 1990s, publicly articulated in 2003 & 2005 in keeping w/Islamic tradition against the devt or use of weapons of mass destruction.

The Fatwah can be altered or circumvented if #Iran is under attack & its existence threatened.
