BREAKING:
Israel has struck the HQ of the Assembly of Experts, the body responsible for picking Khamenei’s successor.
Iran's Supreme Leader is chosen by an 88-member body of senior Shiite clerics.
The process is outlined in the Constitution and has only occurred once before. Ali Khamenei was selected in 1989 after Ruhollah Khomeini's death.
The interim powers have been temporarily transferred to a three-person council (leadership council) consisting of:
- The President (Masoud Pezeshkian)
- The head of the judiciary (Gholamhossein Mohseni Ejei)
- A senior cleric from the Guardian Council (Ayatollah Alireza Arafi)
This council handles duties until the new Supreme Leader is named.
The Assembly of Experts Convenes must meet "as soon as possible" according to the Constitution to select a successor.
Members are popularly elected every eight years, but candidates are strictly vetted and approved by the 12-person Guardian Council to ensure loyalty to the regime.
Potential candidates must be male Shiite clerics and are evaluated based on:
- Deep knowledge of Islamic jurisprudence (fiqh)
- Political and social insight
- Administrative capability
- Piety, courage and other qualities
The Assembly holds an internal vote on who should become the next Supreme Leader, picking the new leader through a simple majority.
The selected individual becomes Supreme Leader for life (unless removed by the Assembly for incapacity or other reasons).
Khamenei’s son Mojtaba Khamenei (if still alive) or Ayatollah Alireza Arafi (on the interim Leadership Council) are believed to be the two top contenders for the next Supreme Leader.

With all of this continuous footage, it really makes you wonder where the Ukraine footage is. Or maybe that war is fake.

Want to look weak? Immediately stop military operations if the other side fights back.

Oh no u misinterpreted what i wrote. I hope he destroys everything as long as they are doing this stupid shite to us. Americans have been killed in the hundreds since the ayatollah's took over. Destroy all their shite.

During that particular strike on the embassy? I don’t know if anyone died. Overall there a probably a lot of dead across the entire region which is probably what they were trying to say.

For those of you who have served or are familiar with logistics and supply, during the prolonged high-intensity conflict with Iran, how does the U.S. military manage attrition of ordnance and the secure transport of JP-5 aviation fuel to carrier strike groups?

I assume they can refuel in the air. No doubt kc135s are in the area.

88 Clerics just took a rubble nap.
Now they have to choose another 88 Clerics who are Regime loyalists before they can even start to choose another new leader again.
