I understand that Khamenei’s son was injured, maybe seriously, but Iran is saying he is alive. If that is the case, you would think we would hear what he has to say, but what comes out of this man is limited, and we don’t know if it is really coming from him. The question is why, along with who is running the country? My opinion is the IRGC.
Iran is in a corner and will do anything to keep power, no matter how many get killed. Most countries in the Middle East are tired of this regime and look forward to a day of peace. We cannot let this chance pass, as we may never have the opportunity again. We have to get China and Russia out of Iran by destroying the current regime and letting the real Persians run their country once again. All IMO.

“The son and successor of Iran’s longtime leader, he was out of sight throughout the mourning ceremonies and rallies that ended on July 9. Mojtaba Khamenei was reportedly wounded in the same Israeli air strike that killed his father and has not been seen in public since his succession in March.
The no-show, experts say, has inflicted a further blow to Mojtaba Khamenei’s legitimacy and intensified questions about who runs the Middle Eastern country of some 90 million people. According to the authorities, he did not attend his father’s funeral because of security concerns.
“His absence is politically significant because it underlines the central dilemma of the succession. Mojtaba can inherit the office, but not his father’s authority,” said Alex Vatanka, director of the Iran Program at the Washington-based Middle East Institute.”
