      No and if British petrol hasn’t been such greedy bastards Iran wouldn’t have spiralled into theocracy:

      https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1953_Iranian_coup_d'état

      In 1953, the CIA- and MI6-backed 1953 Iranian coup d’état overthrew Iran’s Prime Minister, Mohammad Mossadegh, who had nationalized the Anglo-Persian Oil Company.[5][6][7] The coup reinstated Mohammad Reza Pahlavi as an absolute monarch and significantly increased United States influence over Iran.[8]

      So they helped end democratic rule and put a despot in place that was corrupt in their favor. The son of whom they are trying to get back into power now

      This corruption caused this:

      https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iranian_Revolution

      A theocratic despot who somehow hated the us and UK.

      This all could’ve been helped by letting the democracy be and paying a fair share for the oil extracted from the country, but that was somehow a bridge too far.

    This war started 47 years ago, the minute that the imperial core’s puppet regime was overthrown.

    Yeah, Khamenei never planned for or publicly spoke about his own death in this conflict. This guy on the funny Epstein Hitler website is freaking based. 😆

      There has been reporting about his planning for succession if he were to be assassinated. 🤷

      He died a martyr to his supporters, which now have an unquestionable Casus belli and a license to prosecute and murder any current dissenters for treason.

      Peculiar timing on behalf of the US. Hmm.
