World Tension has risen in Iran after eight people were killed in clashes between the security forces and opposition supporters on Ashura, the ritual day of Shi'ite mourning that fell on December 27. It was the worst violence in the major oil producer since the aftermath of last year's disputed presidential election and was followed by the arrests of scores of pro-reform figures in a fresh crackdown by the authorities. Despite intensifying pressure, opposition backers are expected to try to take to the streets again on February 11, when Iran marks the 31st anniversary of the 1979 Islamic revolution. Opposition Iranians have used occasions marked in the Islamic revolutionary calendar to revive their protests and messages of rallies on that day have circulated on the Internet. Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who has effectively sided with hardliners urging tougher action against the demonstrators, said Iran's foes were seeking to harm its unity. Government officials have portrayed the huge opposition protests that erupted after the June election as a foreign-backed bid to undermine the clerical leadership. "All parties with different tendencies should clearly distance themselves from the enemies, particularly influential elites should avoid making ambiguous comments ... when arrogant powers and oppressors adopt anti-Islamic stances," he said. Referring to the state-sponsored rallies usually seen on the revolution anniversary, Khamenei said the "enemies are worried about the huge presence of our nation" on that day and that they could not undermine the Islamic revolution. But in a sign of continued opposition defiance, reformist former president Mohammad Khatami accused the authorities of launching a "new wave of pressures" and he defended people still protesting over the outcome of the election. STERN WARNINGS Khatami's comments, reported by the pro-reform Parlemannews website, are likely to anger ruling hardliners who have repeatedly issued stern warnings against further rallies. "Unfortunately we are witnessing these days a new wave of pressures and a new round of arrests," said Khatami, who backed opposition leader Mirhossein Mousavi in the presidential poll. He was speaking at a meeting of freed post-vote detainees. The June vote, which reformist leaders said was rigged to secure President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's re-election, touched off the worst internal crisis in the Islamic state's three-decade history. The government denied opposition charges of vote fraud. Thousands of people, including senior reformers, were detained after the poll for fomenting unrest. Most of them have since been freed, but more than 80 people have been jailed for up to 15 years and five have been sentenced to death. Iran's internal turmoil also added to tension with Western powers who accuse Tehran of seeking to develop nuclear bombs, a charge Iranian officials deny. Khatami, who was president from 1997-2005, said those handling Iran's affairs had "done nothing but caused more problems", in hard-hitting criticism of Ahmadinejad's conservative government. "The major part of the protesters are committed to the constitution and peaceful ways to voice their protests," he added. An Iranian news agency, ILNA, cited police on Tuesday as saying that tip-offs from the public had helped the force to arrest 40 "rioters" who took part in last month's protests. The arrests followed the detentions of hundreds of people on Ashura itself. On Monday, five people went on trial in a Tehran court on charges that could be punishable by death.
