If it’s true that Khamenei’s son was picked to replace him, then Sepah and “security council” run the show in Iran still because this is who they wanted due to Khamenei’s ties with them. Even though the Mullahs/ Shiite clerics hate father-son succession; it’s one of their supposed qualms with the monarchy.
The “reformers” wanted Hassan Khomeini. The parliament and many of the mullahs wanted Alireza Arafi but Mojtaba has close ties with Sepah/Basjii.

So we just murdered a bunch of civilians (and also lost a few of our own soldiers) only to then let things go straight back to the status quo? Can’t say I’m surprised, but definitely still disappointed

I cannot honestly believe they’re dumb enough to announce new commanders and officials. If anything, I think these guys are internal targets. Then again, they thought a cargo ship could be a drone carrier…
I’d focus on whatever the Iranian version of Denny’s or Waffle House would be. Lord knows the 88 “experts” weren’t going to HQ.

How coincidental of Allah to grant his blessing to the son of Khamenei, what are the odds.

bruh, wasn’t like half of the reasons the 1979 revolution happened in the first place is that the Shiite clerics got tired of hereditary rule?

Somehow, monarchy returned.
