Ayatollah Paranoia: Iran's Leadership Reportedly Plagued by Fear and Mistrust As Israel Keeps Owning Them

If you’re an Israeli-hating Middle Eastern terrorist these days, your life prospects don’t look that good. The Jewish state has systematically eliminated the ranks of Hamas “leaders,” sent almost the entire hierarchy of Hezbollah to an early grave, and even threatened Iran’s boss, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

Israeli forces managed to pull off an audacious plot where exploding pagers took out numerous Hezbollah operatives. They then followed up with a massive airstrike in Beirut, Lebanon, which ended the existence of terrorist Hezbollah psychopath leader Hassan Nasrallah.

Turns out, they’re getting into the heads of Iran’s despotic rulers:

Israel’s assassination of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah last week has reportedly stirred paranoia among top Iranian officials and the country’s supreme leader, Ali Khamenei, according to Reuters.
Israel targeted Nasrallah in a significant airstrike against his bunker on Friday, marking the latest blow to an increasingly weakening Hezbollah, which has been attacking Israel since last year. Khamenei had reportedly warned Nasrallah that Israel was going to try to kill him and urged him to flee Lebanon in the days prior to his assassination, a senior Iranian official told Reuters, speaking on condition of anonymity.

Israel Confirms Death of the Terrorist Nasrallah; Does This Open a Door for Peace in the Region?

Khameini reportedly is getting pretty freaked out:

Iran had already been concerned for years that Mossad, an Israeli intelligence agency, had infiltrated Tehran’s ranks, the outlet reported. Following Nasrallah’s death, that concern has grown larger — and Iranian officials have become worried about Khamenei’s safety, officials and sources close to the matter told Reuters.
“The trust that held everything together has disappeared,” an Iranian official told Reuters.
“[Khamenei] no longer trusts anyone,” another source close to the Iranian regime told Reuters. [Emphasis mine.]

As so often happens in totalitarian countries, the rats are turning on each other. If this continues, expect a housecleaning—which, as we know from history in Nazi Germany, North Korea, Soviet Russia, and other demonic regimes, means the wholesale assassinations of all those even remotely suspected of lacking sufficient allegiance to the despots:

Authorities have opened investigations to see whether some Iranian officials or members of Iran’s military are compromised, another Iranian official told Reuters. The investigations are particularly centered around officials who travel or have family outside the country.
Authorities are reportedly suspicious of Iranian military members who have recently been in Lebanon, one of the officials told Reuters. One of the military members had recently been asking about Nasrallah’s location, raising eyebrows among other officials. That individual was arrested, along with several others, the official told Reuters.

As Joe Biden continues to blather on about a ceasefire and “proportional responses,” the reality is that this evil empire will continue to be a threat as long as it’s allowed to exist. Biden on Wednesday said “the answer is no” when asked about a preemptive Israeli strike on Iran’s nuclear capabilities. The obvious question: why not? Either take them out now, or face more war in the future or even a nuclear detonation in Jerusalem.

That’s the reality we’re facing, and the weak leadership of Harris and Biden simply isn’t up to the task of dealing with it.

The Trump campaign, in a Wednesday campaign email, brought the point home:

On Iran, the terrorist-funding regime has managed to make at least $90 billion from illicit oil sales under Kamala, largely due to "ongoing hesitance to enforce oil sanctions on Iran." Iran had just $4 billion in foreign reserves when President Trump left office.
It’s clear that Iran does not respect Kamala Harris. She told Iran in October of last year "don't” – and since her tepid “warning,” Iranian proxies have killed U.S. troops, attacked U.S. Navy ships, shot down U.S. drones, and Iran itself has attacked Israel…
Kamala Harris’s weak arguments were completely and fully debunked. That’s why she struggles to defend her record – it’s indefensible.
