According to a new report by the New York Times, Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei, is believed to be seriously ill.

The Ayatollah, who is 85 years old, is the true decision maker in Iran, not the President.

Sayyid Mojtaba Hosseini Khamenei, Khamenei’s 55 year old son, is reportedly the planned successor. However the New York Times reported that there are some internal concerns about Majtaba.

Majtaba is considered to be a conservative, who agrees with his father on matters relating to Israel and the west.

This report comes as Iran is faced withe the decision about if the regime will retaliate over Israel’s attack on Iran, dubbed Operation Days of Repentance.
