[IRAN FUNERAL PROCESSION ALI KHAMENEI] With four months passing since the assassination of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei on February 28, by the Israeli’s and the Americans, there will be a 6-day funeral procession conducted which is scheduled to occur through the Iranian cities of Tehran, Najaf, Qom, Karbala, and finishing in the most revered and Holy City of Mashhad; the birthplace of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. Millions of Iranians and an estimated 30 plus countries are anticipated to attend and security for the procession is also expected to be exceptionally high.
Heads of state, Diplomats, and dignitaries from Armenia, Türkiye, Afghanistan, Iraq, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Oman, Qatar, Egypt, Serbia, Georgia, Bulgaria, China, Russia, Belarus, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, India, Malaysia, Thailand, Myanmar (Burma), Palestinian Islamic Jihad, Bangladesh, Burkina Faso, Thailand, Namibia, Republic of Congo, Nicaragua, Shanghai corporation organization, the developing 8, organization of Islamic corporation, Kyrgyzstan, and Hezbollah are expected to attend and possible speak at the funeral procession.
Also aiding in the 6-day funeral procession for Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, 5,000 academic institutions and 50,000 classrooms are being opened to accommodate the influx of people that are coming to pay their respects to Ayatollah Ali Khamenei according to the Iranian minister of educations Alireza Kazemi. For many Iranians the assassination of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei comes at a time where resentment towards Israel and the Americans are at the highest and is serving as a catalyst to bring the people of Iran together. As Iranians show solidarity and support for the assassinated now canonized and martyred leader, the question of will Ayatollah Ali Khamenei’s son and newly elected Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei attend the funeral procession?
Concerns of whether Israel will execute an attack during this time is question as they launched a devastating attack on Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei that resulted in the assassination of his wife Zahra Haddad-Adel and their children, his sister, brother-in-law Misbah al-Huda Bagheri Kani, and a possible niece or nephew. Iranian authorities as well as the Iranian joint military command has already issued an unflinching warning to Israel not to engage in any attacks during the funeral procession. It should be noted that they will be honored and their bodies in coffins will also be a part of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei's funeral procession. Although funeral attendees have already begun to assemble and grieve, there were also a significant number of attendees out of resentment and anger for the joint American-Israeli assassination calling for revenge and “death to America”.
How America and Israel behave after the 6-day funeral procession will determine the future actions of Iran for after the people of Iran 's cry tears, they just may cry with blood next.
