Key Insights on Iran's Supreme Leader Khamenei
Just read about Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei. At 86, he's held power since 1989 and controls all government branches. He's labeled the US as Iran's 'number one enemy' with Israel close behind. Recent US-Israeli attacks targeted areas near his compound in Tehran, though he reportedly wasn't there. What stood out: both US and Israeli officials have openly threatened him, with some calling for his removal to 'end' conflicts. Khamenei denies pursuing nuclear weapons, which international agencies haven't disproven. His power heavily relies on loyal security forces like the IRGC.
