I believe this is related for Iran's decades old calls for "Death to America"/"Death to Israel".

> Death to....

Is the translation "Down with....".

No it's not.

I believe that’s related to Israel’s genocide of Palestinian children and America’s unending unconditional support of the same.

No, it's because of the country is run by fanatics.

Israel? Or the US? Because it would seem all three countries are run by fanatics that just believe in a slightly different version of the exact same story that they call a religion.

I take that back, Trump doesn't believe in anything but himself, but he's surrounded himself in a blanket of Christian nationalists.

Trump will be out of office in a couple of years, and hopefully Netanyahu as well. That's how democracy works. Israel has 20% muslim citizens, with muslim parties and parliament members, cities and vibrant Arab communities. They can work with liberal Jewish Israelis and kick out Netanyahu if they are smart. Much better then war and blood.

Trump has said numerous times he’s going to run a third time and there’s no indication the Supreme Court has any ability to stop him.

We’ll see how democracy holds up when people intentionally are derelict in their duties.

Based on what? You guys said that about the tariffs right before the SC struck down the tariffs.

And yet, after “striking down” the tariffs they not only didn’t go away, they increased.

I really dislike Trump. He is not my type at all. I dislike religion and consider myself a liberal - but: Trump said "help is on its way" on Jan 13, and today Khamenei is dead. He kept his words. Free Iran!

You’re making an awfully big assumption that Khomenei being dead is going to result in a better situation for the average Iranian.

Hopefully any leader that consistently sticks with "Death to America"+"Death to Israel" will find himself dead.

The world needs leaders that belive in Peace and freedom. The world and Iran are much much better without dictators like Khomenei. Especially for an "average Iranian".

Leta hope the good side wins.

Anyway, sticking to the "Death to America" strategy and choosing to run a global proxy war and killing their own people, instead of choosing peace, have led to this moment.

Lets pray for the people of Iran we get rid of the regime this time, and eventually reach peace in the middle east.

Hopefully Khamenei is dead. Sticking with "Death to Israel" was not a good plan for him. I hope the regime goes down ASAP.
