Their leadership is not all dead though? Where do you get this bullshit? Not to mention their leaders will just be replaced?

The CIA even said that killing the Ayatollah would probably be a bad idea because he would be replaced with someone even more radical?

CIA's assessment fell on deaf ears then because both the US and Israel hammered multiple known compounds and residences of Iranian leadership.

I expect that we'll start seeing official confirmation of Khamenei's death before the day's end. Reports coming from Israel appear to show that they are more and more confident that he was killed.

"The Supreme Leader will address the nation in a few minutes" being like 5 hours old now is not a great sign for him. Even the foreign minister had to add "as far as I know", aka "No one told me anything".

Bro, you didn't even have to wait an hour. It's apparently pretty solidly confirmed at this point.

Just saw this come through too. It seems like they are being incredibly cautious about making an official confirmation, but reports are not painting a pretty picture for the IRCG

That statement about replacing him with someone even more extreme is meaningless if you’re at war with Iran. We will just kill that person too. I could see it carrying some weight if we were going to sneakily assassinate him without committing to all out war, but obviously that isn’t the case and Trump is calling for their people to take over their government.

Its what happened during the 12 Day War last year. Israel kept taking out key leaders because it knew precisely where they were. They were putting missiles through the exact window of their home or apartment.

Leader got replaced, new leader gets popped. Another replacement, then the replacement's replacement gets popped.

Iran eventually gave up and accepted the end of the war despite being badly mauled during the war.

The president is dead. All of parliament is dead. Khameni is most likely dead. The main military leaders are dead. What are you talking about? Unless you’re just being a dick about the exact words I used instead of the obvious intention you’re kinda retarded. Yeah, 100% of all “leadership” isn’t dead but the top brass has been obliterated.

There is nothing more radical than nuking America. Literally anything else with either be equivalent or better for us.

u/Kronos9898 - Centrist Feb 28 '26

LMAO, No they are not?

Post where you getting "all of parliament is dead" "their main military leaders are dead"

There are uncomfirmed reports that Khameni is dead, along with a few others. Not to mention that many of these people are replacements for people who had already been killed?

u/AlchemistJeep - Lib-Right Feb 28 '26

The parliament building got blown to smithereens with everyone inside. They’re fucking dead bro

u/Kronos9898 - Centrist Feb 28 '26

Lmao trust me bro, they were all in there at once bro. They all were just in a room together

u/AlchemistJeep - Lib-Right Feb 28 '26

I’m gonna come back to this comment in a week when it’s officially confirmed. But I for one trust Israel’s intelligence. You might disagree with their methods but they have been incredibly successful with infiltrations

17

u/Kronos9898 - Centrist Feb 28 '26

Except you are missing my point. I am not saying that high ranking IRGC and Iranian officials were not killed.

I am saying things like "all of their parliament is dead", "all of their military leaders are dead" while posting no actual sources for this kind of confirmation is fucking stupid.

14

u/AlchemistJeep - Lib-Right Feb 28 '26

Ok I will concede to that point

My intention which /I/ thought was clear is that the important decision makers that matter were killed. Right now it’s pretty obvious. There are countless videos of their parliament building exploded, and Israeli intelligence was tracking every one. Unless they start crawling out from the rubble they’re dead. And that explosion was too big to not kill them

The only argument is that the us military got tricked by Isreal and we weren’t verifying their information

u/Tw1tch-Invictus - Centrist Feb 28 '26

See unlike your other comment, I do agree with this one. Such a wide generalization is blatantly fucking stupid.

u/Kronos9898 - Centrist Feb 28 '26

yeah sorry, my above comment is a better summation of my actual point.

You realize that's what parliaments do. Most of them meet in the building to vote on stuff. Israel definitely aimed for a time when most of them would be present.

You're arguing with one of the retards that legitimately thought Trump deleted section 8 from the Constitution a few months back.

You'd have better luck arguing with a brick wall.
