Khamenei Opposed Son's Succession, Trump Doubts Mojtaba

0:00On March 10th, a new report reveals that Iran's late Supreme Leader Ali Kameney strongly opposed his son, Moch Taba, taking over as the next leader. Kameney made this clear in his will, according to sources close to opposition groups. He was killed recently in joint United States and Israeli air strikes, leaving a power vacuum in the Islamic Republic.

They describe him as a young cleric, with little political experience, relying mostly on his father's influence. Despite this, Moch Taba was named successor anyway. The process wasn't smooth. Iran's assembly of experts faced heavy pressure from the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps to approve Moch Taba, overriding objections from many clerics.
