The Economist Blasted with Flurry of Posts for Bemoaning Death of Murderous Ayatollah

Iranian Ayatollah Ali Khamenei was recently killed in joint military operations by the United States and Israel.

While sentiment on the Iran war certainly varies, most would at least agree that the death of the 86-year-old Islamic cleric — who led a regime known for killing its own people and funding terrorism elsewhere in the world — is not an occasion to lose sleep or shed a tear.

But some left-wing media outlets — like The Economist — instead bemoaned the Supreme Leader’s fiery demise.
