He was just a political front man for his party. […] Raisi dying is a nothingburger.
In that case there is no reason to be happy since his death is so inconsequential, yes?
Now obviously not everyone agrees with this. A lot of Iranians and people from other countries (those friendly to Iran at least) who have interacted with the former president (or his FM who also passed away) appear to have a different view than you, or at least that’s what they say in public.
But one thing that i hope we can agree on is that what matters now is that the country has a smooth transition into the next administration with as little opportunity as possible for the enemies of Iran to interfere with the election process or to create chaos and unrest. And i hope that the state apparatus is prepared to fend off the hybrid attacks that will undoubtedly come during this transition period, since i am certain that the CIA has already put plans into motion to cause mischief as soon as the news broke.
