TEHRAN, IRAN - JANUARY 29: Soldiers and members of the Revolutionary Guard are among several thousand Iranians attending Friday prayers in Tehran, Iran, on January 29, 2016. Since Iran's 1979 Islamic Revolution, Friday prayers have been the platform for the regime to reinforce its revolutionary ideology and policies, with issues discussed as diverse as the nuclear deal and the risks of "sedition" from political opponents. Recently prayer leaders have encouraged Iranians to vote in upcoming elections on Feb. 26 for Parliament and the Assembly of Experts. (Photo by Scott Peterson/Getty Images)
