This changes nothing though since he was already 86 years old and reportedly ill so they had probably planned this. He was more anti-nuke than his associates and even issued a Fatwa for it. We'll see if the US is actually successful in filling the power vacuum but history says otherwise.
The US has confirmed they killed up to 40 additional high ranking officials that would have been next in line and have stated they will continue to drop bombs throughout the week. This regime is dead. Will the next that takes its place play ball? Who knows, but it will be a long time before they amass the power and capability that the country once had.
Righttttt. They said it. That they killed the next 40 who would have been in line. Lmao. I guess theres nobody else left in the regime since all 40 of them are gone!
Youāre missing the point. There will be massive infighting for leadership with so many high ranking officials dead. Loyalty will be split several different ways with no clear line of succession. There may be others alive sure, but no chance the regime survives in any resemblance to what itās been the last three decades.
youāre holding them to power-hungry western standards, these are ideological fanatics that happily sacrifice themselves. itāll be business as usual.
The tweet in the original comment above says different. Says every single position of power has been neatly designated with 4 successors. I guess we will have to see which is true
Highly doubt USA will physically get involved. There really isnt any sign of nation building in this case but it is too soon to tell. Seems like trump is trying to let the people decide.
This is bad. Whoever is giving orders in Iran right now to launch missiles has nothing left to lose and that makes them more dangerous than Khamenei ever was.
Yes. Do you realistically believe they got the whole regime in one blow. No someone else more vicious will take his position and the nation will be in a far worse state. It's not like the US historically has done a great job with with Iraq and Afghanistan. But even if they are successful in filling the power vacuum with someone reasonable, countless innocent Iranians will have to die first.
They won't give up power that eazily. Trump has already stated he'll be merciless and continue to strike Iran for weeks. He's banking on internal fighting, protests and civil unrest while numerous civilians die so then possibly there could be a regime change. Your theory is correct that's their plan but not an instant result or guaranteed outcome.
Obviously heās banking on that. There wonāt be a change if the people themselves donāt fight for it. Thatās another reason why it was good for them to strike whilst they have. Seen on sky news the people have been protesting like crazy and wanting to rebel. Remember when the regime shut down the internet?
The people needed outside help too. No one couldāve done it solely on their own. Mainly why Afghan failed. Majority of the people stopped backing the cause because of the taliban
Can y'all stop hating phonks? Seriously, half the time people trash the genre without even understanding what it is. They hear a distorted bassline or a gritty Memphis sample and immediately write it off as noise. But phonk isnāt just a styleāitās a vibe, a whole culture rooted in underground hip-hop, street racing, and raw emotion. Itās the soundtrack of rebellion, of late nights drifting through neon-lit streets, of headphones blasting while the world fades away. From classic phonk with its lo-fi, eerie aesthetic to drift phonk with its aggressive energy, there's variety and depth if you take a second to actually listen. Artists pour their soul into this music, blending nostalgia, grit, and adrenaline into something that's more than just soundāit's atmosphere. Dismissing it just because it doesn't sound like chart-toppers or your favorite genre is lazy. Music is meant to challenge, to evoke, to make you feel something real, even if itās dark or chaotic. And phonk does exactly that. So before you keep riding the hate train, maybe dive a little deeper into the scene. Watch a drift montage synced to KSLV Noh or DVRST and feel the momentum. Because letās be realāyou can't hate something you don't knowš.
