## Early career[edit]

In 1980, at the age of just 20, Raisi was appointed prosecutor of the revolutionary court of Karaj, west of Tehran, and by 1988 he had been promoted deputy prosecutor of Tehran. Raisi was a member of the so-called “Death Commission”, which ordered thousands to be killed in the massacre of 1988. He then became one of four individuals selected to carry out the slaughter of imprisoned activists of the People’s Mojahedin Organisation of Iran (PMOI). Some 30,000[9] men, women and children held in prisons all over Iran were lined up against the wall and shot within just a few months, say those battling to oust the regime.[10]

The Butcher of Tehran has also led torturing pregnant women and ordered despicable mass-executions.[2].

## Presidency[edit]

In June, 2021, Raisi was "elected" as President, helped by a very low turnout.[1][11][12]

## Cabinet[edit]

In Aug. 2021, the butcher of Tehran, Raisi, presented a cabinet dominated by hardliners on Wednesday, state TV reported, among them a foreign minister known for close ties to Hezbollah and an interior minister wanted by Interpol over his alleged role in the 1994 bombing of a Jewish cultural center in Buenos Aires.

New interior minister Ahmad Vahidi sought by Interpol; the president's pick for top diplomat, Hossein Amirabdollahian, is an avowed anti-Westerner with ties to IRGC, Hezbollah.

The 1994 bombing of Jewish center AMIA in Argentina killed 85 and wounded hundreds.[13]
