They wouldn't even be a plaything, the US would walk in the next day and take it. Why wouldn't they? No military, no international relations, and a bunch of oil.

HIV at 9 and Leukemia at 31. Tough breaks. Hopefully the HIV is really gone

Edit: He actually apparently had lymphoma at 9 as well

Is it just me or does the headline make it sound like the bull is the one who came out of retirement for this?

Moreso just the age old tale of the new young/hot partner, combined with the fact that the guy has Huntington's disease.

That sounds like it would be the dream actually. Why TF would you want to be a monarch?

Is there anything to stop a staffer, or the man himself, from wagering a shit load on polymarket and then tweeting praise to Allah again?

Actually we're talking about it being irrelevant whether the election or the candidate selection are free and fair because, as previous established, the Supreme leader is the one calling the shots

Sources like the fact that Iran openly states that foreign policy is decided by the office of the Supreme Leader? Or that Presidential candidates have to be approved by the (unelected) guardian council? Or do you mean a source for you being an idiot? Sadly I don't have that

I get my info from plenty of sources, I'm just neither an idiot nor some shill, I hadn't decided where you fall but if you think the president of Iran is the one calling the shots I'll go with idiot.

Two things can be true. The Iranian regime is bad. The US regime is bad and started an unjust war.

Also, democratically elected? I must have slept through the last supreme leader elections

Iran doing some good things does not mean that it's not a bad regime.

So anyone not making minimum wage is fair game for poisoning? Yeah that's definitely not insane at all
