Karim Sadjadpour on New Iran Leader: The Person Who‘s Most Likely To Be Selected Is the Son of the Late Ayatollah Khamenei
‘If he indeed is selected, it‘s going to undermine the original Rationale for the revolution’
RUSH EXCERPT:
SADJADPOUR: "By all accounts, the person who‘s most likely to be selected is the son of the late supreme leader ayatollah khamenei. He‘s called mojtaba khamenei, 56 years old, just like his father‘s"
TAPPER: "Well, there‘s khamenei and khamenei. You mean the most recent?"
SADJADPOUR : "The most recent okay, just past mojtaba khamenei is 56. He‘s very close to the revolutionary guards, who will be the power behind the throne. And my view Jake, if he indeed is selected, it‘s going to undermine the original Rationale for the revolution. The revolution overthrew a hereditary monarchy and said hereditary monarchy is is UN-Islamic. And now they‘ve set up hereditary theocracy."
