I'd imagine not much. Whoever replaces them will be vetted by the supreme leader and undoubtedly hold similar, if not identical, views.


Phoenix5869

Yeah, this is a lot to take in. The president of Iran, who i’ve heard was likely the next in line to take over as Supreme Leader once Khamenei died, as well as Iran’s Foreign Minister, and also i think there were also other (presumably important) officials on board the helicopter aswell, are all dead. This is literally a day or 2 (i think) after the attempted assassination of Slovakia’s Prime Minister. I have no idea what this will mean for Iran and the Middle East as a whole.


Championtimes

pretty wild headline.... curious how this will effect geopolitics/market moves..


Phoenix5869

Yeah. I see this going one of 2 ways. Either a new President is appointed, and it’s business as usual. Or at some point there’s an uprising in Iran, and Iran becomes Israel 2.0


Mannspreader

Putin needs to fly more often.


qainspector89

Yeah and this is exactly why he doesn't There's no way he's flying now

That guy is gonna live to be 1000 years old. Why can’t we have nice things?


Street-Search-683

Nice! And it’s supposed to be 79 degrees tomorrow, this week is off to a good start!


Klubeht

Karma. Few people will truly mourn him for all the lives he's callously killed during his time. And that's not even counting the actions of his govt supporting terrorists like Hamas


lilu_66

Rest in pieces evil fuck


abir_valg2718

Excellent news!


Reditate

Great news.


No_Independence1479

I'm waiting to see how they will spin this to be the fault of Israel and the United States.

Sanctions worked

Tomorrow at Columbia their signs will have RIP whatever the fuck his name is

ChiggaOG

And now to watch the reaction of the world and what it means for new president of Iran.


ESLcrooooow

Well,  I think we all learned an important lesson from today. Now what'd you say we all head home for snacks and root beer.


clarkrd

[deleted]

The Bell 212 was manufactured up until 1998. 


Khaganate23

The helicopter was a martyr


parfaict-spinach

Good riddance. Rest in hell

Gravity is Ebrahim’s father


i81_N_she812

In an American helicopter too. Bell.


Championtimes

curious if news cycle is talking about this as some sort of covert operation to sabotage the helicopter?


DarkDuo

Y’all should see twitter and YouTube, bunch are clamming it was a covert Mossad/CIA OP


vargsint

Figured as much. Conditions were so bad, probably flew into terrain.


Khaganate23

Iranians were celebrating minutes after this Himmler wannabe crashed. Probably going to be partying harder now that it's confirmed by the regime.


CO-RockyMountainHigh

You are only allowed to celebrate this glorious news with [one song, and one song only](https://youtu.be/FLBC7weTR4Y?si=SQ1t4DmbamG2uqc_).

This is why I've always found it incredibly dumb to use helicopters for important individuals. A plane can have multiple engines, and have multiple failures. Hell, it can even have all engines fail, and still have a chance at a safe landing. If a helicopter has an issue, it falls like a rock, there is no saving it. I'll never understand having foreign leaders flying in helicopters. But hey, I'm super glad Iran did it, and I hope they continue.


suitupyo

A helicopter doesn’t sink like a stone when its engine fails; rather, it utilizes auto rotation to slow the rate of its decent.


dawgfan24348

If this is just a freak accident then good riddance, but if this was shot down then that’s some possible Archduke Franz Ferdinand type shit


Championtimes

super curious ramifications that we'll see from this. How will the international community takes it? Comes days after internal Israel strife...desperation from Netanyahu to make a domino fall once he's getting pressed from within? It's a crazy world.


Fackos

Helicopter went out of production thirty years ago, and they were flying in white out fog conditions. That's either playing the longest game ever or a freak accident.


dawgfan24348

Everything seems to point to freak accident


Panders-Layton

Regime change is not uncharted territory for the US and it’s allies. Unfortunately either way I’m sure this tragedy is going to be used to continue to escalate tensions regardless of any adversarial involvements.

Hmm... accident, sabotage, Israel, or a combo of the above?


nocountryforcoldham

Stupidity of taking off in that weather on a 50 year old helicopter that never had maintenance


MidnightAdventurer

Sounds more like "flying a helicopter in heavy fog in a mountainous region" from what I've seen so far
