Tehran Friday's prayer was a throng of warnings to elections protesters who have used every opportunity to demonstrate and express their protest to Ahmadinejad's government which they believe stands on the shoulders of a fraudulently elected president.



Ayatollah Janati, a staunch hardliner led Tehran's Friday prayers reminding the crowd of what became of the members of People's Mojahedin of Iran, the opposition group which was heavily suppressed in the first years of the Islamic Republic in Iran and went on to continue their struggles against the Islamic Republic from within Iraq during the Iran-Iraq war.



Ayatollah Janati warned protesters that "fighting the system" will "cost them heavily" and result in their "homelessness."



A considerable group of People's Mojahedin ended up staying on in Iraq and living in a camp which used to be under US jurisdiction. The camp is now under threats from the current Iraqi government that wants to deport the inhabitants to Iran.



Millions of Iranians have rallied and protested in Tehran and other cities since the June presidential elections.
