    When the headline has both "rumors" and "unsourced reports" you should have known it was just clickbait and moved on.

    In an authoritarian regime, you seldom have anything more to go by.

    That's true. But, my view is that it won't make a bit of difference. Iran will be just as horrible and evil whoever the next supreme leader is.

    What started the reports

    Iran's 85-year-old Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei is reportedly in a coma and preparing to step down, with plans to name his son, Mojtaba Khamenei, 55, as his successor. Reports suggest that on September 26, the Supreme Leader summoned 60 members of the Assembly of Experts, the constitutional body responsible for selecting and overseeing the Supreme Leader, for an urgent and confidential meeting. The assembly was reportedly pressured to make an immediate decision about his succession, with claims of threats from Khamenei and his representatives to ensure unanimity.

    While the Iranians were busying us with the proxy - they raced to a nuclear bomb.
    Report
    According to the IAEA report, Iran possesses a stockpile of enriched uranium at a level of 60% weighing 182.3 kg. A stockpile sufficient for the production of several bombs, the IAEA Council will call for an investigation and a detailed report by the director general of the agency on the Iranian nuclear agency.
