Episode Details

Tens of thousands flooded Tehran’s streets for Khamenei’s funeral—a government-backed spectacle of grief and rage, with mourners chanting for Trump’s death and vowing revenge. The funeral, spanning from Saturday to Thursday and rivaling Soleimani’s 2020 turnout, carried Khamenei’s coffin alongside family victims of an airstrike. For many Iranians, his decades-long rule left an indelible mark, fueling both sorrow and a fierce desire to continue his legacy against the U.S. and Israel. While U.S. officials monitor threats against Trump—rooted in Soleimani’s 2020 killing—Iran denies plotting assassinations, though hardline propaganda suggests Trump remains a target. Talks on nuclear arms, Lebanon, and control of the Strait of Hormuz are on hold until after the burial, as Iran seeks unity amid escalating tensions.
