For 36 long years, he stood as an indomitable fortress against American hegemony and Israeli expansionism, defying suffocating sanctions, relentless threats, and diplomatic isolation with unwavering resolve. The United States and Israel clearly mis-calculated, believing that eliminating Khamenei would collapse Iran and pave the way for a puppet regime.
