@Glenn_Diesen It's surprising how few people actually grasp the concept of mullahcracy in Iran and how the system is deeply entrenched in Iran..Even though Iran is a theocracy with a supreme leader, it’s not merely an autocracy where the Ayatollah takes control through military force or 2/ @Glenn_Diesen 2/ political manipulations. Instead, he secures his position through a consensus among a group of learned shia clerics, many of whom might be just as capable, if not more so, than the Ayatollah himself. The whole system thrives on competition, interdependence, and teamwork 3/
