This war is certainly a blatant breach of international law but I won’t shed any tears if that fucker is really dead.

I mean, the CIA got him in power to begin with…
Iran had a relatively progressive democracy before we installed their authoritarian theocracy in exchange for cheap oil. Khamenei was very involved in that.
Turns out raping peoples basic human right to democracy, and installing puppet dictatorships, is fundamentally unstable… let alone morally, ethically, or legally justifiable.
The CIA: “but oil… and corporate profits! The Dow is over 50,000 dollarydoos”

Blaming everything on the CIA effectively white washes the Iranian regime.
That’s really fucking lazy. Also the consequences of British adventures in the century right up to that point, of Mongols torching everything to the ground, and oh Xerxes should have punished Dardanelles harder.
Like, yes it’s bad to rape people’s dignity, but come on, at least glance at Wikipedia sideways.
Khamenei was very involved in that.
You’ll shit bricks when you realise Khomeini and Khamenei are not the same Ayatollah :D
Unfortunately that’s like hitting two major jackpots in a row at a casino, not likely to happen. One can dream though! Sure would make the world a better place overnight.

Israel has been trying to kill him ever since.
You confused the Islamic Republic with the Mohammad Reza Pahlavi era.
CIA installed the son of the previous usurper. Theocracy was not installed - it was a revolution against that.
So… the consequences of the CIA’s actions?

Yeah, two awful authoritarian regimes are currently fighting and one of them is worse, but that doesn't make the other one good.

Tin foil hat time: IF he is dead he was killed before the strikes started.
Solid strategy. You can’t kill me if I’m already dead! #checkmate ♟️
Don’t believe anything they tell us unless there’s corroboration.
Best outcome is yahu and trump are next

Best we can do is a school shooting, sorry.
Finally some good f*cking news.
liberals opinion in comments making me puke
ISW is keeping track of assassinations and bombings, and are calling this “unconfirmed.” But they do aggregate several sources:

I do wonder what happens next. Does the IRGC take over as a military junta or something? That sounds… unfun.
