Chants for vengeance against Trump dominate Khamenei's funeral in Tehran
Iran's public threats against Trump and America are escalating after Khamenei's funeral, a bad sign for hopes of a negotiated peace deal.
- Massive crowds at the funeral chanted "death to America" and openly called for killing Trump, with banners showing him and Netanyahu in crosshairs.
- The event's speaker and Iranian officials called for "blood vengeance," suggesting retaliation could come through missiles or negotiations.
- The same regime figures making these threats are the ones the US is trying to negotiate a peace deal with, raising doubts about trusting them.
- An estimated 81% of Iranians reportedly oppose the regime but are stuck living under leaders who push this agenda.
Outlook: Anger inside Iran is expected to intensify, keeping the threat of retaliation alive and making any deal with the regime shaky.
