I don’t think that most people in the western world fully grasp the importance of what has just transpired. Ayatollah Ali Khamenei was not just the supreme leader of Iran. He was a direct descendant of the Muhammad, and that gave him the right to wear the black turban. For Shiite Muslims, the direct descendants of Muhammad are considered to be the only legitimate spiritual and political successors to Muhammad. They are believed to possess divine knowledge and authority, and killing such an individual is considered to be unthinkable. There are statues and photographs of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei literally everywhere you go in Iran, and now that he is dead there are 200 million Shiite Muslims all over the world that are extremely angry.
Of course it isn’t just Ayatollah Ali Khamenei that is dead.
The strike that killed him also killed his daughter, his grandchild, his daughter-in-law and his son-in-law…
Iran has confirmed that Ayatollah Ali Khamenei died in joint US and Israeli strikes.
The Supreme Leader’s daughter, grandchild, daughter-in-law and son-in-law were also killed in the bombardment on his home in Tehran in the early hours of Saturday.
The family deaths were reported by state media on Sunday, just hours before Iran’s military made a promise to lead its most ferocious counterattacks on the US and Israel in history.
That would have been enough to unleash an unprecedented wave of revenge.
But there are dozens of other Iranian leaders that have also been eliminated.
In fact, President Trump is claiming that 48 top Iranian leaders are now dead…
President Donald Trump boasted on Sunday that 48 Iranian leaders had been wiped out ‘in one shot’ after confirming to the world Saturday that Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei was dead.
He also said in a Truth Social post that US forces ‘destroyed and sunk’ nine Iranian Navy ships.
‘We are going after the rest – They will soon be floating at the bottom of the sea, also! In a different attack, we largely destroyed their Naval Headquarters. Other than that, their Navy is doing very well!’ Trump wrote.
These Iranian leaders slaughtered tens of thousands of their own people.
So their deaths are being greatly celebrated all over the globe.
