The WH Guy has posted on his Social media that the Iranian Supreme leader has been killed. The Israeli President is also saying this. Iran is NOT confirming. Those two are tied at the hip, so of course they're collaborating.

Can you imagine the egg on his face if it turns out the Iran leader is still alive?
MAGA would finally see how big a liar he is. Or they won't care.
Who or where can someone get confirmation of his death other than his social post, Israel, or regular media and Right wing propaganda?

My opinion and mine alone and not my employer's.

@DennisinPeoria :
For the time being you can not get complete, honest and independent confirmation, In time, the truth and total verification will come out.
Though, it seems that a couple of very high level people were not killed as they don't seem to have been there. At times in the past, there was a passing thought that they might be a CIA asset, We have to see what happens now to know for sure.

Iran has confirmed the death.

I still think the WH bully jumped the gun waaayyyy too soon, but that's his regular narcissistic ego, has to claim he "overturned" another regime. Time for signs to say, "America Last" and "No more wars except when I want them".

My opinion and mine alone and I don't care if ICE is watching me.

US military suffered 200 casualties in retaliatory strikes - Tehran
www.malaysiasun.com/ news/278893918/us-mi litary-suffered-200- casualties-in-r

The US has suffered 200 casualties in Iranian retaliatory strikes on bases across the Middle East, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has claimed.

Backed by the US, Israel launched what was described as a preemptive operation against Iranian military and nuclear-related targets in the early hours of Saturday, claiming the strikes were aimed at neutralizing threats posed by the Islamic Republic in the region.

US President Donald Trump later confirmed that the White House had supported West Jerusalem in conducting the strikes, citing the failure of nuclear diplomacy as a direct trigger for the move.

"As a result of missile strikes on American bases, at least 200 US military personnel were killed and injured," the Tasnim news agency reported Saturday, citing a statement by the IRGC.

Commenting on the retaliation, IRGC General Ebrahim Jabbari warned Trump that the Islamic Republic has "advanced capabilities" and is ready for a prolonged conflict.

"At the start of the war we will strike everything we have in our stockpiles," Jabbari said, vowing to launch "the most powerful missiles later."

"What we have not shown until now, and what, as we Iranians say, we 'put to rest in brine,' we will reveal in the coming days," he added.

Iran's retaliation targeted several US military facilities across the Middle East, including the Fifth Fleet support center in Bahrain, a base in Iraqi Kurdistan, Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar, Ali Al Salem Air Base in Kuwait, Al Dhafra Air Base in the United Arab Emirates, Muwaffaq Al Salti Air Base in Jordan, and Prince Sultan Air Base in Saudi Arabia, according to reports. Israeli news outlets also said that some 35 missiles were launched toward Israel, with one person reportedly injured.

Iran
@mypeez :
A very, very high level US official said that, because of an imminent threat, Iran was going to preemptively strike US bases with missiles. Members of both parties of the Senate Intelligence Committee and Senate Foreign Senate Relations Committee have strongly denied it. Because of the imminent attack Trump attacked.

The son of the late Shah of Iran lives in the suburbs of DC. A few months ago, there was some talk that Trump wanted him to return to Iran and be a placeholder, of sorts, until there were democratic elections and a new leader was elected. Most people knew that idea was going nowhere and it seems it indeed hit a dead end several months ago. If indeed it ever had traction. So, now Trump has to go to a Plan B or higher. Consequently, there is some fear and concern being expressed by Rs that by late spring or early summer there will be boots on the ground.

US aircraft carrier Abraham Lincoln 'targeted' by missiles as US confirm 3 killed

One of America's nuclear-powered aircraft carriers, branded "the largest warship in the world", had been targeted by four ballistic missiles today (March 1).

Iran's Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) claimed it has carried out a successful attack on the US aircraft carrier Abraham Lincoln as it issued a further threat to the US, calling them terrorist aggressors. However, US Central Command have since said that the claims are not true and the Abraham Lincoln remains operational.

It comes as US Central Command has also confirmed three people have been killed and several injured during Operation Epic Fury, but it has not been confirmed how they died.

Any Americans in the Middle East, killed or wounded whether military or civilian...
their blood is on his hands.
Because the "No More Wars and America First" President couldn't wait one or two more weeks for a negotiated deal to be finalized. I believe it could have been done.
Don't get me wrong, Iran citizens needed change from their strict regime leadership. Killing the Ayatollah will only mean another strict cleric will take his place.
Bush, Jr. pushed Congress for months to get Authorization to attach Iraq, I believe. Obama never sent armadas of ships somewhere to attack and remove a leader.
It's just another case of the WH President/King/Dictator dismissal of the other 2 branches of government, knowing that his GOP House and Senate bootlickers and ring kissers continually praise him for whatever he decides without any input or votes from them.

www.theguardian.com/ world/2026/mar/01/tr ump-iran-attack-2020 -election-loss
"Donald Trump on Saturday appeared to link the massive attack he ordered against Iran to his persistent claims about his 2020 election loss to former president Joe Biden, in a social media post about allegations that Tehran's government interfered in the US president elections.

"Iran tried to interfere in 2020, 2024 elections to stop Trump," his Truth Social post said, "and now faces renewed war with United States".

Those words, written in the first hours of the bombardment of Iran, repeated the headline of an article to which he linked from Just the News, a Trump-friendly news site. "Iranian intelligence sought to undermine Trump's re-election bid in 2020 through a variety of election influence efforts," the article said. It also said Iran worked against him in 2024, when he beat Kamala Harris at the polls."
