They are really giving him the weekend at Bernie’s treatment eh? How long before they cart him out and move him around like a marionette.

Itd be hilarious if the US pretended they were talking to him the whole time and Iran was forced to admit he was dead.

Doesn't matter if he's alive or not, the message stands.

The message stands from who exactly? Some random guy in Iran?

They may have ChatGPTed him?

It matters in that him being dead would only make it more clear to the world that the Iranian regime is radical and delusional. Can’t exist without Dear Leader!

Sure during war time But what about actually making decisions?

> would only make it more clear to the world that the Iranian regime is radical and delusional If "the world" hasn't get it yet, nothing will make it get it. Even if he was dead and them talking for him, that's absolutely nothing compared to what they've done in their history. These guys supported Assad.

the_mighty_peacock Apr 9, 2026 +6
Russians supported Assad too. I dont see USA invading them. Screw that, I dont even see them actively supporting Ukraine. How come we only remember to call baddies when among all others they got some huge oil reserves?

The United States has given almost $100B to Ukraine over the past few years.

IntelArtiGen Apr 10, 2026 -3
> I dont see USA invading them. The US hasn't invaded Iran. And they're actively supporting Ukraine. Remember when they said that they didn't deliver Patriot missiles to Ukraine? It's because for 1+ year they've been saying "we're not helping Ukraine" while delivering patriot missiles. And they'll continue. Also it's quite consistent, Russia has nuclear missiles and it's well known that it's harder to attack countries when they have nuclear missiles and when it's too late.

But it IS still existing. Iran is being run fragmented. You can't negotiate with that. They are unified in their hatred of the west and each fragment is going to exercise their power to maximize their retaliation, buts it's not coordinated. Trump may be making a deal with some guy who has an important role, but decision making is decentralized. Short term is a nightmare, but its unsustainable

TDSsince1980 Apr 10, 2026 +4
Huh maybe killing the entire senior leadership while pretending to be in negotiations had a negative effect.

cobrachicken26 Apr 9, 2026 +1
I hope that if he ends up being alive they don't treat him like some Jesus figure💀

If he is he won't stay that way, thats for sure.

He will be a hero unfortunately as a victor against the empire. Much like Luke Skywalker. Even better we murdered his parent and his children, so even more sympathetic views will be held.

maxofJupiter1 Apr 9, 2026 +81
Still no live message, or even a video recording, or even an audio recording. Hes either dead or in a Moscow hospital wishing he was

It doesn’t matter they have their command set up like a Hydra and IRGC was transferred power before his dad death according to them lol. He’s the religious figure to galvanize the Shias

MoogleStiltzkin Apr 10, 2026 +5
is it the cardboard mojtaba? does anyone even know if he is still alive even o-O:

Political_breeds Apr 9, 2026 +4
We want a fair national election to elect the new Supreme leader of Iran. Fair and free and frankly that's not too much to ask.
4
MoogleStiltzkin Apr 10, 2026 +2
that's a tough ask when civilians were massacred out on the streets for merely protesting, voicing out their displeasure. so no, there is no democracy :/ so how r people gonna vote in a fair election?
2
FewResearcher2606 Apr 10, 2026 +1
Lol we don't even want a new supreme leader. But at least choosing him directly by the people would be much better than this. They chose him after his father died, basically monarchy with extra steps.

The Black Knight in Monty Python was also very resolute even after losing all his limbs. There wasn't much he could do though.

More accurately... "I will avenge my father"

Puppies_Rainbows4 Apr 9, 2026 -11
You mean killing the guys father, wife, and children could cause him to seek revenge over the next 40 years? I am shocked; I thought everything would be water under the bridge

maxofJupiter1 Apr 9, 2026 +44
Do you really think the IRGC hardline didnt already hate America? What type of argument is this? Also the guys father was a mass murderer

Gosh, you act like they’ve been chanting “Death to America! Death to Israel!” at schools for 40 years. /s

Two wrongs don't make a right. There are no 'good guys' involved in this war.

foghillgal Apr 9, 2026 -7
The US basically made it personal. That\`s the reason why leaders are not regularly targeted. Iran \`s bounty against Rushdie almost got him killed 30+ years after it was enacted. So, involved in this will have to look over his shoulder for the next 40 years. Good luck to them I guess.

the_mighty_peacock Apr 9, 2026 -1
For Iranians (and many others for that matter) US officials are also mass murderers. I wonder how USA would react if they killed Trump. And Melania. And Ivanka. And Barron. To give an idea.

maxofJupiter1 Apr 9, 2026 +10
Except the Persian people were celebrating

muskratboy Apr 10, 2026 +2
Americans would also be celebrating, should this happen.

the_mighty_peacock Apr 10, 2026
You know one doesnt contradict the other right? Persian people celebrated the death of their dictator, I dont think they really celebrated the massacre of a whole school.

It's not an argument, it's a fact. America will need to watch its back. That is also a fact.

What can Iran do that they haven't already? Fund terrorist groups? Attack shipping? Try to assassinate world leaders? Wow

**US funds terrorist groups, particularly in Central America** **US bombed boats in the Carribean. And murdered injured victims of those attacks.** **US has assassinated multiple Iranian leaders.** Wow

If he's actually dead instead of spouting nonsense, I'm going to be really jealous.  NGL, I want that for us, too.

Overall the Iran regime is winning here. I'm parroting NPR but Iran now knows the most power miltary in the world (USA) and region (Israel) struggle greatly to actually remove the regime's power. Even bigger they now know how the world reacts and is affected when they close the Strait of Hormuz, they will be using this as a huge strategic advantage and to generate future wealth with tolls. They know America has ruines its alliances over all this. They came out waaaaaay on top. The only issue is if Trump does go nuclear or go full on invasion, that is the only way they lose, and the USA also loses if they do that.

As the saying goes, war doesn't determine who is right, only who is left. And as always, those who lose the most are the poor and most vulnerable of society.

IceMysterious3056 Apr 9, 2026 -11
Iran is certainly winning when it comes to favorites in the war...I thought it be opposite but everyone hates the US and Israel now.

BetSquare7190 Apr 9, 2026 +13
Nothing new here. One of Iran's slogan has been "Death to America, Death to Israel" for 50 years now.

Ok_Wasabi8793 Apr 10, 2026 +2
Aggressors are rarely popular. I think most think irans leadership sucks and support the people but the attacks on them isn’t going to make them less radical nor are they likely to remove the current regime or improve people’s lot.. so yea, what’s the point. A war with no clear goals, achieving little, hurting global economies and US soft power.

ImaginationToForm2 Apr 10, 2026 +1
Before they just greatly disliked us. But now they despise us. GG Trump.

thecloakofignorance Apr 9, 2026 -13
The real danger here is that Israel looks all out of options short of nuclear. NOT defending Israel, just pointing at a trajectory
-13
Key-Rough-8346 Apr 9, 2026 -2
We need to abandon Israel like the parasitic leech that it is. The world will be better for it.

yehoshuabenson Apr 9, 2026 +1
You're welcome to try. Many have, and they're......dead. Pathetic

Key-Rough-8346 Apr 9, 2026 -1
See, Israel bootlickers make these psychotic statements frequently, all while Israel continues to bomb civilians. Your country is creepy, and most Americans want nothing to do with it.

yehoshuabenson Apr 9, 2026 +1
Dude just suggested killing me and my family. Lmao what a weirdo

yehoshuabenson Apr 9, 2026 +2
Also, Israel survived for decades without US aid.
2
Key-Rough-8346 Apr 10, 2026 +1
And they should continue to survive without it. I don’t want to see American tax money funding Israel’s disgusting acts.
1
yehoshuabenson Apr 10, 2026 +4
You know that aid to Israel goes back into the US economy, right?
4
Key-Rough-8346 Apr 10, 2026 +3
Yeah, I dislike the military industrial complex even without Israeli warmongering. No thanks.

yehoshuabenson Apr 10, 2026 +5
American aid to Israel is strictly for the Iron Dome which is by definition defensive.
5
Key-Rough-8346 Apr 10, 2026 +2
Maybe they wouldn’t need to use the Iron Dome so much if they’d stop attacking others.

thecloakofignorance Apr 10, 2026 -4
Aushwitz went right back into the German economy. 
-4
yehoshuabenson Apr 10, 2026 +5
Boy that didn't take long to get to Holocaust inversion. The Iron Dome, which the US funding goes towards, is defensive.

thecloakofignorance Apr 10, 2026 -1
You associated aid to Israel with an economic good to distract from a moral evil. The analogy is apt
