Celebrations Erupt In Iran, Also Worldwide — Even CNN Admits Response Is “Striking”

Khamenei is dead.

So are 40 of his top leaders.

An oppressed nation stands on the verge of true freedom…

And the people can feel it.

Celebrations are erupting in Iran and all over the world to celebrate an evil dictatorship coming to an end, and hopefully, new freedom soon to bloom.

From the streets of Iran:

This is the full translation to English:

“Khamenei is dead! We’re free! Iran is free! Oh my God, it’s true! Finally! Iran is ours again!””

Even CNN was forced to admit the celebrations are roaring everywhere, including in L.A. which has a large contingent of ex-Iranian citizens:
