Iran's Supreme Leader reportedly evaded an assassination attempt by going into hiding within Iran, according to Israeli statements.
HOWLIN' TEL AVIV - A hot-headed Defense Minister, Israel Katz, casually tossed around a potential alternate history where Iran's supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, would've found an early grave if the stars had aligned differently during their twelfth day of war. Katz spilled the hot tea during an interview with Israel's very own Kan public television on June 26.
"I reckon if we'd had Khamenei in our crosshairs, we'd've taken him out," Katz said, showing an appetizing appetite for power.
But Khamenei wasn't an idiot; he dove deep underground and severed ties with commanders only to keep his head above the battles raging around him. A strategic move that proved beneficial, as Israel's top-tier Iranian commanders and nuclear scientists found themselves on the wrong end of Israel's arsenal back on June 13 - the opening day of their wife-beater bout[1][2].
Some folks, like Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and US President Donald Trump, had hinted that Khamenei's days could be numbered during the fiery air war. However, the dance ended with a US-devised truce on June 24, thwarting potential regime change chatter for the time being[3]. So here we are, with Khamenei still stinking up the place like a well-worn pair of shoes that've seen too many battles.
As for Trump, he's planing for a little nuclear chat with Iran next week. Khamenei, ever the skeptical one, called Trump's impact on Iran's nuclear sites exaggerated who knows what other rude remarks he said about the product of our 45th President. Stay tuned for more sneaky shenanigans with ST's delightfully juicy Telegram channel[4].
