  • Top US counterterrorism official Joe Kent resigns over Iran war

    Jump

  • It's good that a "true believer" stepped down and I'm all for it. His reason for doing so isn't super noble though. MAGA Classic isn't a whole lot better than New MAGA. They really just have different awful priorities. And both parties in a 'wrong kind of asshole' fight are still assholes.

    I think this says more about how universal opposition to the war is than anything particularly good about Kent.

    Iranian state media announced early on Sunday that Iran’s supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, was killed. “To Allah we belong and to Him we shall return,” the news agency said. He died after U.S. and Israeli military strikes on Iran on Saturday.

    Edit: Also a whole bunch of his family.

    The deaths of the daughter, son-in-law and grandson of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Iran’s supreme leader, were confirmed, according to Iran’s semiofficial Fars News Agency on Sunday morning in Iran. One of his daughters-in-law was also killed, the news agency said.

Aziz Nasirzadeh; the head of the Revolutionary Guards Corps, Gen. Mohammad Pakpour; and a top adviser to Iran’s supreme leader, Ali Shamkhani. The spokesman, Brig. Gen.

    Jump

  • A central goal of the first joint wave of strikes in Iran was to hit as many leaders as possible, according to three Israeli security officials familiar with the operations.

    The officials said that, similar to the previous strikes in June last year, planners took into account that they would manage to achieve at least some degree of surprise. They calculated that if they wanted to kill senior Iranian officials, they had to try and hit them in the first round of strikes. Afterward, it is highly likely that more precautions would be taken to protect the leadership.

    Videos verified by The New York Times show strikes in an area of Tehran that houses the presidential palace and Iran’s National Security Council, among other important government buildings. Another video shows a strike near Iran’s Ministry of Intelligence.
