India’s PM Modi Bilateral Meeting with the Iran’s President Raisi during BRICS (August 24, 2023) via Wikipedia.

Finally some apparent good news. Not only is Raisi the President but he’s the Ayatollah in waiting. Whether really fog – a timely truly Act of God, GPS jamming, a mechanic in Azerbaijan, it’s certainly a partial payback and hopefully can prevent a lot of bad things in the future, assuming Raisi’s dead. We need more of this and less of war. Now we need Samson in the Kremlin. When a prominent figure, maybe Pat Robertson, suggested that Saddam Hussein be assassinated, rather than Iraq invaded, there was a scandal, because assassinating leaders is illegal. However, apparently the invasion of Iraq was illegal, as well. So, which cost more lives?

Raisi has been described as “a favorite and possible successor” to Iran’s supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, by several sources.”https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ebrahim_Raisi

Regarding Hitler, Louisiana Senator/Governor Huey Long (1893-Sept 8 1935) said “There has never been a country that put its heel down on the Jews that ever lived afterwards.” (quoted in “Huey Long” by T. Harry Williams p. 761) https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Huey_Long

Iran says a search for a helicopter that crashed while carrying its president and other senior officials in the country’s northwest extended into nightfall Sunday, as the fate of Ebrahim Raisi remained unclear.

Iranian state media said the helicopter crashed earlier Sunday in bad weather near Jolfa in Iran’s East Azerbaijan province. They said it was flying President Raisi, Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian and two other officials back to Iran from an event just across the border with Azerbaijan, where they met with Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev to inaugurate a dam project.

Iranian media said the crashed helicopter was one of three transporting Iranian officials back from the event, where they inaugurated the Khoda Afarin and Giz Galasi hydroelectric power plants along the Aras River that marks the border between Iran and Azerbaijan. The plants are located on the stretch of river between the Azerbaijani district of Jabrayil and Iran’s East Azerbaijan province.

Iranian state media had reported on Saturday that Raisi would travel to the border region for the inaugural ceremony. Following the crash, Aliyev posted a statement on the X platform, saying he was profoundly troubled by news of the crash of Raisi’s helicopter and offering prayers and assistance as a “friend and brotherly country.”

In a VOA Persian TV interview on Sunday, Germany-based independent Iranian journalist and researcher Reza Talebi said that if Raisi has died, Iran’s Islamist rulers may declare him a martyr who died as a result of foul play by their chief external enemies, Israel and the United States. There is no evidence of foul play.

A U.S. State Department spokesperson said Washington is closely following reports of the Iranian helicopter crash. “We have no further comment at this time,” the spokesperson said.

To say “there is no evidence of foul play” is the stupidest thing ever! They haven’t even found the helicopter or recovered Raisi dead or alive. WTF cares if he’s declared a “martyr”.
