Washington, D.C. - Social media is ablaze with rumors that Iranian dictator Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has died. Iranian state-media has yet to confirm or deny such rumors.
Cairo-based journalist Gamal Sultan wrote on social media that Khamenei died after suffering from a bout with prostate cancer, after surgery failed to alter the course of his demise, according to Rassd News Network.
Daniel J. Levy of The Times Of Israel wrote on Twitter late Saturday: “Hearing unconfirmed reports from a usually very reliable source of Ayatollah Khamenei’s death today.”
On Friday, Iranian media confirmed that “The commander of the Islamic Revolution, Ali Khamenei, his health deteriorated on Friday morning, and was admitted to a Tehran hospital,” reported Al Bawaba News.
Reports on Thursday revealed that the “Supreme Leader” may have been hospitalized and was said to be in critical condition, according to Israel Hayom. Khamenei, 75, was reportedly rushed to the hospital due to complications from his ongoing bout with cancer.
Since 1989, Khamenei has ruled over the ancient Persian country with an iron fist, succeeding his predecessor, the late Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, in instituting Islamic law over Iran.
In 1983 and 1984, while he was President of Iran under Khomeini, Khamenei oversaw the Iran-backed killings of hundreds of American servicemen in Lebanon.
Iran continued to target American soldiers during the United States’ most recent war in Iraq. American officials believe that Iran was primarily responsible for supplying IEDs (Improvised Explosive Devices) to jihadist groups during the war. The explosive devices, many of which were utilized as booby traps and roadside bombs, killed many American soldiers.

God works in mysterious ways...his wonders to perform..
Yes, I know he was sick and old, and old sick men die.
But it is interesting that this occurred immediately after Bibi’s speech, in which Bibi denounced him, compared him to Haman, during Purim, under a Blood Moon.
Just a big coincidence, I’m sure! :-)
There is speculation that these rumors are spread by the Israelis, to jam up the nuclear deal. The timing is right.
Khamenei has cancer and is dying, but precipitating a power struggle right now could make a deal impossible. So hey, why not give it a try?
Why not?
I’ll play! LOL!
Amen.
I just saw another thread claiming he is alive.
Now we will be treated to the Franco/Arafat/Castro scenario, I guess.
I agree. And if true, I wonder if our poor excuse for a president will attend his funeral. If he does, then that would demonstrate once and for all where his true allegiance falls.
He threatened Israel, and God dealt with him.
He'll probably order all US flags at government facilities to be flown at half staff................
Even after Death all they care about is Sex. Very telling when their end
is all about sex. Kind of affirms that it's a Cult and Cultist theology.
"[Upon Khomeini's death] Ten mourners were trampled to death, more than four hundred were badly hurt and several thousand more treated for injuries sustained in the ensuing pandemonium"
I just hope they forget to remove his suicide vest.
It sickens me.
Obama and company will probably use this as an excuse to extend the talks beyond the March 31st deadline. Anything to keep from enforcing a red line.
I didn’t mention it, but when I saw the headline I thought “Way to go Mossad!”
Roast in Hell
Well, look at that....it’s Satan’s handwriting in that book.
