Breaking News: “Broadcast on Iranian state television has been hacked, replaced with messaging from Netanyahu and Trump,” The Spectator Index reports. We don’t know what they might have said.
There is a lot going on today, with a potential Ayatollah dying and Iranian leaders allegedly wanting to talk with President Trump.
We have a temporary supreme leader, Ayatollah Alireza Arafi, who may or may not be made permanent. Iran better tuck him away in a safe place if there is such a place. President Trump says 47 years of this radical regime is long enough.
Khamenei’s son Mojtaba has long been in line for the position. However, Open Source Intel said he has recently passed away, although Iranian officials have not confirmed his sudden death. One must wonder how long the temporary replacement would last. If it’s anything like Hamas leadership, as soon as one takes the helm, we hear of his passing.

Donald Trump told The Atlantic today that the remnants of the regime’s senior leadership want to reopen negotiations.
US President Donald Trump said on Sunday that Iran’s new leadership wants to open talks with Washington, one day after US-Israeli strikes that Iranian state media and Israeli officials said killed Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
In a phone call interview, Trump told The Atlantic that he agreed to speak with Iranian representatives but declined to specify whether a conversation would take place on Sunday or Monday.
He added that some Iranian officials involved in recent contacts were “no longer alive,” following what he described as a major strike.
It’s odd that they want talks while they are sending bombs out hither and yon.
HAPPENING NOW: Massive U.S.-Israeli airstrikes ROCK Tehran, Iran, as President Trump tells The Atlantic that the country’s new leadership wants to talk to him and he plans to do so.

This should have been done in 1980 by feckless Demon rat Jimminy “Cricket” Carter! Instead we got years of bloviating, Clinton busy getting BJ’s and playing Hide the cigar. Then the money laundering scams with Obammy who is himself
a Muslime Brotherhood member and Big Shiite fan.
Iran never stopped talking, the USA did. To claim Iran stopped talking is to misinform. Israel has a nuclear program. I sure hope this does not end in disaster. Our USA is getting casualties. Criticizing MTG, Massie and Tucker will be used as distractions. The mob mentality will be invoked. The claims of them ruining the midterms will resume. Meanwhile… Read more »
You are, indeed, a prisoner. A prison of your own making.
No, “things” have NOT taken a bad turn. Things are going according to plan, and Pres Trump is taking care of business that SHOULD have been dealt with forty years and hundreds of American lives ago. And the US gave Iran every possible opportunity to “talk”, and Trump is AGAIN agreeing to talk to them, right now. But in all… Read more »
Seems like the only thing you need to do to be qualified to run Iran is wrap a towel around your head. How in the world are these lunatics selected?
It seems like you are so unaware of things that you do not know the USA set up the Islamic Iran dictatorship by overthrowing the Shah. That was how the lunatics were selected.
You can thank jimmy carter for this mess and others!!!!!!!!!!!
I read they have a “committee of experts”. It’s not workin’ out so well for ’em right now.

rejoice libbies, your saviour is dead. long live the asstollah. haw haw haw
