For kids will die certainly.

As always,

Letting kids die. 🧵

Karim, much to your dismay, Iran is not on the brink of civil war. It was a chopper crash. Iran has a strong legal & constitutional infrastructure. Just because you don't like Iran doesn't mean it doesn't have laws or that it's dissolving.
Ebrahim Raisi’s death would create a succession crisis in Iran. He and Mojtaba Khamenei are the only contenders to replace 85-year-old Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei (Mojtaba’s father). In Iran's conspiratorial political culture few will believe Raisi’s death was accidental.

Reminder for those who seek war w Iran: US-backed Iraq attacked Iran, 1980-88. Iraq lost. US-backed Israel invaded Lebanon, 2006. Israel lost. US-backed Saudi invaded Yemen, 2015. Saudi lost. What do all these wars have in common? Iran on the other side.

9 Points on Regional War:
1-Massacre of Shifa is horrific & its difficult to even mention loss of Iranian life after witnessing such atrocities
2-But Israeli hit on an Iranian embassy marks a serious escalation on part of US and its junior partner.
The Shifa hospital massacre is worse than the 1948 Nakba’s Deir Yassin & Tantoura massacres combined
Over 300 women, children & men slaughtered. Many zip-tied & executed, some flattened by tanks, burned, or hacked into pieces by missiles, skeletal remains & body parts everywhere

How intellectually impoverished and self-hating we must be to blithely compare drawings from the 14th century to the funeral procession of contemporary state officials, and say, 'see, our people just love to mourn. That's why we attend funerals.' Shameful.
1. Once again, a state funeral in Iran has led to a debate about how much political support the Islamic Republic enjoys.
Here's the thing...
Participation in collective mourning is a deeply embedded cultural custom in Iran.
It's not an *inherently* political act.
