To understand the significance of Khamenei's assassination and why its such a catastrophic blunder for the US, consider this:
Iran has never had a martyred Supreme Leader. (Khomeini died of a heart attack.) For the leader of the Islamic Republic to be martyred by the Great Satan is 1000% on brand.
Furthermore, Khamenei was killed in Ramadan, the same month as Ali, the first imam of Shiism.
He was also killed with his family, which Shia view as parallel to the martyrdom of Husayn and his family in Karbala.
This takes Khamenei and the legitimacy of the Islamic Republic to record levels in the eyes of the Shia globally, and increasingly Sunnis.
Trump made this incredible blunder because he obeyed Netanyahu and adopted the Israeli strategy of kill everyone and everything.

@Tiju0Prakash BJPs politics is ruining everything for India. Had India not bullied everyone they would be the King of this region. But now the disputes ruin this world cup and chances of Olympic in south Asia.
@Tiju0Prakash Mr. Prakash BCCI preferred money over honour. Furthermore hand shake fiasco means next time militants attack army men in Kashmir their widows can be told we will not shake hands with Pakistan in our next cricket match.
