I think we disagree.
By the way, I’m from Russia, and we have our own “totally not authoritarian” head of just one branch of government.
And the ayatollah - he’s effectively the head of all branches, while also having religious authority. It’s very hard to see any democracy here.
Stop being unnecessarily rude.
Also: am I right in my point about ayatollah supremacy?
As far as I know, ayatollah is entitled to command all leaders of all branches.
That’s why he’s called the supreme leader.
It’s not true?
Because Iran wasn’t a dictatorship.
It had factions.
Isn’t ayatollah the supreme leader?
But they were still enriching uranium covertly. How’s that?
You told me that Iran was covertly enriching uranuim , despite the will of ayatollah, because there are factions in Iran.
If that’s your point, then I disagree with you, because of all the power ayatollah had. I think he knew, if not ordered it.
(By the way, I’m not defending the USA & Israel war intervention. Nor am I enamoured with Iranian leadership.)
