Trump says Khamenei is dead: ‘The single greatest chance for the Iranian people to take back their Country’
People are fed up—do they even notice?
President Donald Trump on Saturday afternoon declared that Iranian Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, a man he described as “one of the most evil people in history,” is dead, following joint U.S.-Israeli strikes against Tehran.
“This is not only Justice for the people of Iran, but for all Great Americans, and those people from many Countries throughout the World, that have been killed or mutilated by Khamenei and his gang of bloodthirsty THUGS,” the president said in a post to Truth Social. “This is the single greatest chance for the Iranian people to take back their Country.”
A photo of the supreme leader’s body was shown to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, an Israeli official told the New York Post.

Earlier Saturday, Trump had spoken to several outlets where he was a little more hesitant to definitively say he was dead.
“I don’t want to say anything definitively until I see things, but we believe he is. And much of their leaders are gone. Not only from the one site but two other sites that we attacked also,” the president said during an interview with ABC News. “We had great intelligence, and so we think much of leadership is gone.”
The development marks a critical and extraordinary moment for Iran, as Netanyahu and Trump have urged those who have participated in mass uprisings against the Ayatollah’s government to take over the country.

In his press conference, Netanyahu urged the Iranian people to overthrow Khamenei’s theocratic government, similar to President Donald Trump’s calls.
The strikes offer protestors an opportunity to “unshackle themselves from tyranny,” the Israeli leader said, calling the moment a “once in a generation chance” to overthrow the Iranian regime.
Exiled crown prince Reza Pahlavi, seen by some as a potential leader in a post Khamenei world, urged the Iranian people to shape their future. “My dear compatriots, Moments of destiny lie ahead of us,” he said early Saturday.
