Doubt that. Good chance that the new leadership is going to come in with a new attitude that might surprise a lot of people.

‘Supreme’ leader. Is that a regular leader with sour cream?

The Israeli strikes began six days ago in the early morning hours of the weekly Islamic holy day.

Weekly Islamic holy day begins at sundown tonight.

The supreme leader handing leadership to some other Iranian, who likely doesn’t want to become the new biggest target for the IDF.

All would-be leaders in Iran are likely telling the supreme, ‘no thank you, you keep it’.

The head does, but not the rest of him.

I think you are correct. If the Ayatollah really did step down, the military leadership that still exists may very well understand their position is weak.

Iran may be ready to self-change their regime.

If they’re all going to get virgins in heaven, why would they care?

Nothing will change in Iran until religion is purged from top to bottom in the government. Otherwise, they’re all just dangerous religious zealots who believe they are on a mission from God to deliver the world to Ishmael.
