Iran could be more dangerous than ever after Khamenei’s death, says Israeli ambassador

OTTAWA — Israel’s top diplomat in Canada says the elimination of Iran’s head of state in coordinated U.S.-Israeli airstrikes doesn’t necessarily mean the country’s Islamist regime is critically compromised, in fact, he says it could now be more dangerous than ever.

“The Iranian regime has manufactured a system of power that has been able to sustain itself for 45 years and to unleash death and destruction on its own people,” Israeli Ambassador to Canada Iddo Moed told National Post in an exclusive interview on Sunday.
