That is the question of the day. But one thing I learned is that Iran has a mosaic-type organization prepared for people to fill in as new leaders for those who are killed. The only issue, though, is communications because the new leaders are afraid of any electronics for fear of being located. And I’m sure the Iranians don’t know Morse code, so they must use runners taking messages to leaders who are hidden. It is a matter of time before Iran, the extremist Muslims, are out of power, and that is good for the world. This is one attack the world needed because Iran was being propped up by China and Russia. Pray for the safety of our military members. All IMO.
“Tehran has announced the formation of an interim leadership council that will oversee the country’s defense until a new supreme leader is selected. The three-member council consists of President Masoud Pezeshkian, Ayatollah Alireza Arafi, a member of the Guardian Council, and Gholam-Hossein Mohseni Eje’i, the leader of the Iranian judiciary.
Ali Larijani, Iran’s security chief and a key Khamenei adviser, is expected to play a role in the council.
Under the Iranian Constitution, the 88-member Assembly of Experts is tasked with selecting the next supreme leader. The timeline for the selection is vague; the Iranian Constitution requires only that the assembly choose a supreme leader as “soon as possible.”
Ayatollah Khamenei’s death puts Iran in a unique position in its history. He was only the second person to hold the title of supreme leader after the 1989 death of Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini.
Ayatollah Khamenei rose to power during a period of relative peace in Iran. Now, Iran is facing intense military pressure from the U.S. and Israel that seeks to depose the Islamic republic.”
