How will Raisi's Death Affect Iranian Politics and Succession? | Vantage with Palki Sharma
The sudden death of President Ebrahim Raisi has upended Iranian political calculations. Not only was he the president, but also the anticipated successor to Supreme Leader Khamenei. Raisi's death forces Iran to rethink its leadership, raising questions about succession and stability. Who will step up as the next president and Supreme Leader? Will Khamenei's loyalists maintain their grip, or will we see a power struggle? Amid internal social discontent and a crippling financial crisis, how will this leadership vacuum affect Iran? Palki Sharma tells you more about Raisi's rise to power, his impact on Iran, and the potential future scenarios for the country.

[@marcozegikniet9301]

Man made bullshit gods never get old 💪

[@kiingkavani]

​@@adarshkumar8542​not sure who you referring to that made fun of hindus, each to their own.. Christianity does not teach to judge or condemn other religions but to love. Judgment is reserved for God alone. However reading your comment I need to categorically state that belief and worship of the Holy Trinity is not polytheism, polytheism is the belief and worship of multiple separate gods. Please do ur research on Christianity before you make such statements. Christians, like Jews are monotheistic. That said, in Christian doctrine the Father, Son and Holy Spirit are all one and the same Triune God, each revealed with a distinctive purpose for mankind and His works. It's important to keep in mind that while we have our limitations in our understanding and pretty much everything, God is limitless. Jesus, Yeshua said: "And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand. I and my Father are one." (John 10:28-30) “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me." (John 14:6) The Father, God in Spirit created the heavens and earth, the same Holy Spirit was sent to dwell in believers as a comforter and counsellor until our Lord's return. "Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters." (Genesis 1:2) "But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you. Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid." (John 14:26-27) Amen ❤️
