Okay serious question, please: who takes charge of Iran if he's dead and what are their views?

More from BBC: https://www.bbc.com/news/live/world-middle-east-69035051?

"Rescuers yet to make contact with helicopter convoy... Iran's interior minister says rescuers are still trying to reach the site, but their efforts are being hampered by poor weather conditions "

There's not a chance in hell he survived. He's GONE.

SHOIGU. GERASIMOV. WHERE'S THE FUCKING HELICOPTER?

The BBC are calling the Iranian helicopter incident a "crash". https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cv22311qx21o

"A helicopter in a convoy carrying the Iranian president has been involved in an accident, state media is reporting.

It is currently unclear whether Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi was on board the helicopter that state media say experienced a hard landing.

The Interior Minister said rescuers were still trying to reach the site due to the difficult weather conditions."

He's super dead. CIA'd. Source: idk telepathy or something

For me this raises the question, does there exist a scholarly English language text explaining Juche, similar to 'Foundations of Leninism' for the Soviet model and Luna Oi's book on the Viet Namese model?

The PLA band played the anthem of the Soviet Union and Moscow Nights (Red Army Choir Song) for Putin's visit to Beijing. I could cry.

And incredibly based.

Institute of War or whatever has an interesting graphic showing Russian gains in the last month. I think these already outsize the entire Ukrainian offensive last Summer.

I saw this in my inbox and got really scared that I had done something wrong ))):

Thanks for sharing. Agree with a lot of what you said, but went in with SUPER low expectations so was pleasantly surprised.
