Iran had already been concerned for years that Mossad, an Israeli intelligence agency, had infiltrated Tehran’s ranks, the outlet reported. Following Nasrallah’s death, that concern has grown larger — and Iranian officials have become worried about Khamenei’s safety, officials and sources close to the matter told Reuters.

“The trust that held everything together has disappeared,” an Iranian official told Reuters.

“[Khamenei] no longer trusts anyone,” another source close to the Iranian regime told Reuters. //

Authorities have opened investigations to see whether some Iranian officials or members of Iran’s military are compromised, another Iranian official told Reuters. The investigations are particularly centered around officials who travel or have family outside the country.

Authorities are reportedly suspicious of Iranian military members who have recently been in Lebanon, one of the officials told Reuters. One of the military members had recently been asking about Nasrallah’s location, raising eyebrows among other officials. That individual was arrested, along with several others, the official told Reuters. //

Mossad is freaking the Iran leaders out and it's probably by design. They will not trust their most trusted people right now and it's great. Think about them arresting their own close people, it's bound to make quite a few other ones very nervous. //

It would be like Israel to plant incriminating evidence on anyone they want taken out. Let the Ayatollah be the means to his own end. //

Mohammad nowhere to be found. No comfort, no peace, no absence of fear.
Islam is a cult, worshipping a man. //

Isn't it odd that the ayatollahs are not so ready to be martyred as they are to send off their flunkies to die? They act a whole lot like godless politicians in secular states.

If you want to know what people really are, don't rely on what they say, look at what they do. //
