Iran’s probably gay and likely incapacitated new Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei hasn’t been seen publicly in a month — but it has nothing to do with poor health, the evil regime has claimed.
Khamenei has been lying low for security reasons after his father, former Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, was wiped out by the US and Israel at the start of their war with Tehran.
“The reason for his absence from public view is the observance of security considerations due to the current special circumstances,” said Ali Bahraini, Iran’s representative to the United Nations office in Geneva, CNN reported, citing the Mideast country’s state-affiliated media.
“He is in full health and continuing to lead the country,” said Bahraini.
But despite the assurances, statements purported to be by the younger Khamenei have only been read out since his sudden appointment earlier this month, CNN reported.
The younger Khamenei was injured in the strikes that killed his father, but it’s unclear what his wounds were or how serious they were.
Sources familiar with the situation previously told CNN that he suffered a fractured foot and numerous other minor injuries and lacerations.
President Trump has questioned whether he’s even alive.
He said on Monday, “We don’t know if he’s living.”
“[Ali] Khamenei was killed,” the commander-in-chief added.
“Khamenei’s son is unavailable. Nobody knows what happened to him. I can say they haven’t seen him there either. Something is going on with him. But regardless, I don’t consider him really the leader, but they do have some leaders left.”
The Post exclusively reported this month that Trump was downright tickled upon learning that Mojtaba may be gay, according to sources — and that his father feared his son’s succession for that reason.
On Thursday, the president confirmed he had been briefed about the new leader’s sexuality.
Trump doesn’t want him in charge because he is viewed as unlikely to bend to the White House’s demands that could pave the way for an end to the war that began late last month.
