The killing of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei ushered in a new form of collective leadership in the country, with more power for the Revolutionary Guards.
April 23, 2026
Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei, the son, is an elusive figure who has not been seen and whose voice has not been heard since he was appointed in March. Instead, a battle-hardened collective of commanders in the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps and those aligned with them are the key decision makers on matters of security, war and diplomacy.
“Mojtaba is managing the country as though he is the director of the board,” said Abdolreza Davari, a politician who served as senior adviser to Mahmoud Ahmadinejad when he was president and knows Mr. Khamenei.
Seriously, wtf did tRump think would happen when he murdered Khamenei? Did he think Iran would just roll over and give up?? Ofc Iran’s military has taken over, just like military leadership has in many other instances where some dumbfuck foreign leader tries to manipulate world politics through assassination.
What a fucking idjit he is.
Yes, that is very specifically what he thought. And/or that there would be a popular uprising.
