Iranian security officials have rejected Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei’s request to attend the burial of his slain father and predecessor, Ali Khamenei, because they fear Israel will kill the son or track him back to his hiding spot, The New York Times reported Saturday.
Mojtaba Khamenei seeks to attend his father’s July 9 burial in Mashhad and perform funeral rites, but has so far been refused, the Times said, citing two unnamed Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps members and a person involved with planning the multi-day funeral that began on Saturday.
Khamenei has not been seen in public since he was injured, and his father, wife, and son were killed in the opening strikes of the US-Israeli bombing campaign in Iran on February 28. According to the Times, he was absent from a memorial for his wife in Tehran on Wednesday.
Four senior Iranian officials cited by the Times said Khamenei’s continued absence from the public eye has triggered concern about the sustainability of his rule.

The IMAGINARY Supreme Leader?
My opinion also. He’s either dead or total incapacitated.
How can a “Supreme Leader” be barred from anything? Doesn’t he make all final decisions? Or, just maybe, he isn’t quite so “supreme” anymore.
SECONDLY, if he IS in control of everything, they cannot BAR him from anything and he was TOO SCARED TO GO.
The leader formerly known as supreme. He only goes by a symbol now:😵☠

Or it could be because they already have. President Trump seemed awful cheerful when he announced his earnest desire to meet face to face with Mojtaba Khamenei.
Mr. Cardboard is unavailable for comment.
TOTALLY CORRECT
Really, the rule no maimed, one legged, queers allowed.
This reminds me of the leader in Woody Allen’s Sleeper that was blown up and the only thing left was his nose.
anyone got the Jennifer Lawrence Oh Sure! meme handy
Uh huh, yeah, right. I read that if he doesn’t show himself at the funeral, it will cause an even bigger power vacuum than there already is.
Killed on Feb 28 but Funeral was delayed until the 4th Of July.
How Patriotic can You get?
The “Shyatolla”
Aide: Stop being such a coward. Israel can’t get you. Here, look that special phone that just arrived as a gift for you. Words of encouragement. Just press this button.
Yeah. We had to lovingly force him away. He so wants to be here!
Yeah! That’s the plan!
Cutout photo....
After this there was a battle over using it as a reassembled home due to the over 400% inflation leaving the Iranians with nothing.
I was told Muslims had 24 hours to bury their dead—before the sun set on the day after they breathed their last.
