Former Iranian culture minister mocks Trump as 'mentally disturbed'

Primary source Internal intake · 1 reviewed intake signal · Desk window 15:51

TL;DR

Former Iranian Minister of Culture and Islamic Guidance, Ataollah Mohajerani, derided President Trump, proposing a 'Trump-pedia' encyclopedia of his shifting positions and tweets, which Mohajerani called 'a clear sign of a mental disorder.' He also claimed Washington believed during the war that it could 'bring an end to Iran.'

01 · THE DISPATCH

Former Iranian Minister of Culture and Islamic Guidance Ataollah Mohajerani published a lengthy social-media attack on U.S. President Donald Trump, according to an Israeli the source covering Iranian affairs. Mohajerani mocked Trump's inconsistency, proposing a 'Trump-pedia' — a satirical encyclopedia of what he described as the president's repeated, contradictory tweets and backtracking. He called Trump's behavior a 'clear sign of a mental disorder' and wrote that despite Washington's wartime belief it could 'bring an end to Iran,' Trump would be unable to explain how to 'destroy a civilization.'

The attack adds to a pattern of Iranian official and semi-official voices targeting Trump personally as nuclear and regional negotiations continue. The Zioneer has previously covered similar comments by current Culture Minister Abbas Salehi (June 25), as well as Iranian mockery of other officials. Mohajerani, a reformist figure who served as culture minister under President Mohammad Khatami (1997–2005), is no longer in government but remains active on social media. His statements represent an influential regime-associated voice rather than official policy. The single-source nature of this report limits its corroboration.
