I didn't ask you to discuss the entirety of it. I also have scholarship in Islamic Studies and am curious what doctrines. Surely you can cite one? As I haven't come across any that call for unrestricted violence against Jewish people. Or any people, for that matter. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

I imagine it’s the same ones perpetrators of Islamic violence everywhere else cite. I imagine you may also know. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

I am not a scholar of Islam, but I am pretty sure that no core doctrine calls for the mere existence, much less outright political rule, of people called ayatollahs either. And yet here we are. Regardless of the above, the Islamic Republic of Iran calls itself Islamic and takes the velayat-e-faqih system, developed by Khomeini, as divinely inspired. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
