What's This About?
The post sarcastically claims that Mojtaba Khamenei, son of Iran's late Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, was just 'eliminated' after a four-hour 'career' as the new leader from March 6, 2026, at 1 PM to 5 PM. It mocks the instability of Iran's leadership succession amid ongoing Israeli-US airstrikes that killed Ali Khamenei and disrupted the regime. Key themes include the Khamenei family's power struggles, IRGC influence on the Assembly of Experts' rushed online election of Mojtaba on March 3 or 8, and the futility of assuming the supreme leader role during wartime chaos.[2][3]
🔥Why It's Trending

Timing aligns with live updates on March 8, 2026, including missile launches and cleric suggestions for Mojtaba.[1][2]
