💨 Abstract

The U.S. military strike in Iran killed Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, sparking a regional conflict. President Trump stated that Khamenei's son, Mojtaba, is an unacceptable successor and that he wants a leader who promotes peace. Iran retaliated with rocket attacks, and Ayatollah Abdollah Javadi Amol called for violence against the U.S. and Israel. Trump's involvement in choosing Iran's next leader follows his previous intervention in Venezuela.
