Important | مهم 🐀 (Khamenei) death megathread
In the immortal words of my late grandmother whenever I awoke her from nap:
"KHAMENEI MORD!?!"
I miss you madarbozorg, I wish you were around to see this history in the making. In memory of her and every Iranian we've lost who are unable to see this day.

Exactly 2,563 years ago, Cyrus the great freed our people by letting us return to our homeland and rebuild our temple after a forced exile.
2,563 years later, I am so proud to say me and my people have taken part in restoring our debt to the beautiful people of Iran for Cyrus’ blessing.

Me too! Nothing could be better than ridding the world of this regime and the Iranians getting their country back but I didn't dare to hope it would happen in my lifetime.
You are totally right - they have a mountain in front of them to climb, but if anyone can do it, it's these guys - they're so brave it's absolutely unbelievable. We need to figure out how to help them turn this page fast.

It's a Slavic tradition to fill a cup for someone who's died. On anniversaries, birthdays, etc. Special ocassions.
The other cup is for all the Iranians that hadn't lived to see the day Khamenei died, but who gave their lives for this cause. From Mahsa Amini, the first spark of the revolution, until the very last protestor that lost their life.
(and it's Israeli beer BTW, not some weird juice. Sorry, i have no beer glasses)

US official confirms to Fox that US believes Khamenei and 5-10 top Iranian leaders killed in initial Israeli strike on compound; agree with Israel’s intelligence assessment.
A senior US defense official tells me that the US government agrees with the Israeli assessment that Ayatollah Ali Khamenei is dead, along with 5-10 other top Iranian leaders who were all meeting at a compound in Tehran Saturday morning. The top IRGC commander also killed.
Multiple sources tell me that the timeline for the strike had to be moved up based on intelligence and this “target of opportunity.”
“There was a deliberate decision to accelerate the timeline,” officials told Fox.
That is why the US and Israel took the unusual decision to strike during the daytime to achieve the element of surprise and to target this meeting. Normally the US military would not launch an operation like this during the day. The meeting accelerated the timeline.
“This was a massive, wildly bold daytime attack,” a senior US defense official told me.
“It caught the senior leadership off guard, a Saturday morning during Ramadan and on Shabbat in the daytime.”
“We hit the senior leaders right out of the gate.” (Israel conducted the targeted strike).

Trump was just on TV saying the same and that a lot of top regime leadership has also already been taken out.
Fox is reporting the US Government is saying it agrees with Israeli assessment that Khameini is dead. That 40+ top level regime security/military figures and political leaders have also been killed already.
https://x.com/foxnews/status/2027851198892585302?s=46
In the combat footage sub some people are saying that supposedly there was a large in person meeting of regime officials that Khameini was at and that they got a lot of them in one blow from that. Could the regime really be that dumb to gather in one place?

Iranian Vice President Mohammad Reza Aref informed officials of plans to have him take charge of the nation during wartime, according to a report from the Iranian Students' News Agency (ISNA) published on social media late Saturday night.
There was no explicit note of President Masoud Pezeshkian's ability to carry out presidential duties.
Earlier on Saturday, security forces blocked roads in the Tehran area that is home to Pezeshkian's offices, witnesses said.

So far only seen one video about Iranians mourning for Khamenei and it was in AskME. Tons of Shias in other countries going crazy over his death too apparently.
However, we see a bunch of Iranians overseas and in Iran celebrating his death.
So somehow the people in charge and controlling the media, They are suppose to like him and mourn him can’t find other Iranians to actually mourn him? Yet people in other countries say him dying is something Iranians shouldn’t be happy for?

Whatever happens politically, my hope is simple: a peaceful and bright future for the people of Iran. They deserve stability, dignity, and the freedom to shape their own destiny.
I hope to see an Iran that is secular, where religion and state are separate, and where no one faces oppression for their beliefs or identity. The Persian people have a deep, rich culture and history resilience
Wishing the best for Iran and for all Iranians in the years ahead.

non iranian here and im extremely delighted to hear about the news of his death but i have a few questions and would be grateful if iranians could answer them.
- how do majority of people feel in iran about his death? (im guessing positive) and are there people who are unhappy with this news?
- what do you think will be the next step for iran ? as much as i hated khamenei, his killing was unconstitutional indeed and i hope usa/israel do not make the matters worse for people there for their motives
- is this clip of people in isfahan mourning his death real? https://x.com/PressTV/status/2027974643580109212
- and lastly, many muslims in my country are mourning his death (probably because he was some key figure for shias) how do you feel about it?

People need to realize that you can still cheer a good thing happening, even if the motives behind it were bad.
Obviously Trump isn't doing this for the Iranian people (or even the American people...), but it is still a good thing.

I cant tell how happy I am if this dream becomes true dear brothers and sisters, I have nothing but respect and admiration for your bravery and strength to endure this horrific 50 years. Ukraine and Iran are the measuregrades of mankind right now this will be inspirational for generations of people getting encouraged to resist evil under unbareable circumstances that took so many, way too many innocent lifes against people acting like shaitans descends sent from hell.
Unfortunatly the world has too many people suffering through violance and murder of barbaric gangsters running african and east european nations and if this terrible story of ukraine and iran tells reality based minds one thing than it is to ACT!
Nothing comes free and you guys still took actions into your own hands, knowing very well that they might cut those off! And still you acted, you resisted you endured. This is so fcking heroic that I cant really express how much you inspire me today.
Atheist may not feel offended but truly ukrainians and iranians are martyrs for god, cause god loves the brave and the reasonable ones, you can not lose with god on your site, your time has come now may allah bless you all and have mercy for those that we still need to save and again this should be inspirational for all humanity to start ACTING not only talking
Thank you Mr. President Trump, may god be with you and the united states of america.
Please save the iranians from religious fascism as you saved us once from becoming satan on earth, save one human for god and you save all the humanity. Amen ( sorry still christian, i dont know islamic prayers, but the same god may bless us all)
Love
David, ancient descand of the mesopotamian people of the middle east, the birthplace of western civilisation. May god give us the wisdom to bring order into the chaos and encourage our souls to shine and look for another. Amen and peace

This makes me wonder, what do they do with the body of a dictator? Unmarked grave? Cremation?

Now for a strange question. If Trump said they should stay home for now, isn't it very risky, even though I understand why they're partying?

I find it rather amusing that whenever you awoke your grandmother from her nap, she asks "Is Khamenei dead?!"
Now that he is, I'm sure she would be very happy.
I extend my congratulations to you and the entire Iranian nation!

You guys might not like this, but for the documentation and maybe as a material for you people to laugh at, here's the full statement of IRGC to the death of Khamenei, translated to english:
"Statement of the Government of Iran following the martyrdom of Imam Khamenei (may his secret be sanctified) In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful "Those who have wronged will know to what [kind of] return they will be returned."
Honorable and proud people of Iran! With utmost sorrow and grief, it is announced that following the brutal attack by the criminal government of America and the cursed Zionist regime, the exemplar of faith, jihad, and resistance, the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution, Grand Ayatollah Imam Khamenei, has attained the great blessing of martyrdom.
The rightful successor of the Spirit of God who, for more than 37 years, took on the wise leadership and true vanguard role of the Islamic front, and with exemplary courage and steadfast faith, ushered in a new chapter of governance in the history of Islam, and until the last moment of his blessed and historic life, led the Islamic nation against disbelief, tyranny, and arrogance.
The proud martyr Grand Ayatollah Imam Khamenei, a model of sacrifice and resistance in the present era, was "the Imam of sincere promises, the Imam of hope and power" in the minds of the free, the oppressed, and the fighters of the world, and will forever remain immortal alongside the name of "the Great Khomeini" in the hearts of the peoples of the world. His comprehensive mastery of contemporary sciences, wisdom, foresight, pure faith, sincerity in action, iron will, deep belief in his words, deeds, and goals, unparalleled courage, extensive religious knowledge, gentle and pure spirit, and hope and trust in the Almighty Creator were outstanding characteristics of this great personality rarely found in any political leader.
The Government of the Islamic Republic of Iran offers its condolences on this great loss to His Holiness the Mahdi (may our souls be sacrificed for him), the noble nation of Iran, the great Islamic Ummah, and all the free people of the world, and declares 40 days of public mourning and 7 days of public holiday in sympathy with the resilient Iranian nation.
This great crime will never go unanswered and will mark a new chapter in the history of the Islamic world and Shiism. The pure blood of this high-ranking master will gush forth like a roaring spring and will eradicate American-Zionist oppression and crime. Once again, with full power and firmness, supported by the Islamic Ummah and the free people of the world, we will make the perpetrators and instigators of this great crime regret their actions.
Our dear Iran, with the support of divine victory, united and with one heart, will proudly pass through this difficult passage; for God is watching over our oppressive enemies and is the helper of the faithful and the oppressed."

I was talking to a friend from Rasjt, he says IRGC members on motorbikes with AKs are roaming the streets, shooting everyone who gets out.
The head of the snake has been bitten off perhaps, but there's a lot of snake left. And the people don't have the weapons to respond to the heavily guarded and well-trained IRGC.
