An Iranian movement called the “Blood Covenant” is offering a reward for the assassination of President Trump, according to the Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI). The movement has reportedly crowdfunded over $40 million.

From Fox News:

A website for the movement contained a poster of Trump in crosshairs with an appeal to donate “in order to ‘help establish stable peace,’” the nonprofit reported. It added that the poster quotes a verse from the Quran that reads, “Strive with your wealth and your lives in the cause of Allah.”

…

MEMRI said “In Iran in recent days there has been an increase in explicit calls for assassinating Trump, from the Iranian regime’s religious establishment, due allegedly to a threat by Trump to assassinate Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei – even though Trump said he had actually prevented such a move.”

“These calls are backed by fatwas issued in late June by Iranian grand ayatollahs. The fatwas stated that the punishment for Trump is the same as for a muhareb – that is, an enemy of Allah and Islam – and that is death, and the permitting of his blood,” it continued.

Fox notes that this comes on the heels of last month’s U.S. strikes, in which President Trump ordered B-2 bombers to cripple Iran’s nuclear facilities. Although the President was able to establish a ceasefire between Iran and Israel, these threats show that the tension between Iran and America has not disappeared.

Fox also published it’s article on July 14, exactly one day after the one-year anniversary of the attempted assassination of President Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania. Threats against the President’s life have only increased since then, and this bounty from Iran is only the most recent.

As President Trump continues to face danger, it’s important that we pray. We all saw God spare his life last year, let’s pray that He continues to protect our President!
