The post, which names Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, IRGC commander Hossein Salami, and dozens of other senior military and intelligence officials, mocks regime supporters with sarcastic references to slain commanders. The list includes IRGC commanders, Ministry of Intelligence officials, and Basij leaders, and ends with a mock lottery offering '100 soybean packages' for guessing the next target. The post reflects growing public dissent within Iran amid the regime's ongoing security threats against Israel.
The satirical post, shared on Persian-language social media platforms, targets a broad swath of Iran's political and security establishment. The list includes the Supreme Leader, the IRGC commander, the head of the Quds Force, the commander of the IRGC Air and Space Force, and dozens of provincial commanders, intelligence officers, and Basij leaders. The post mocks the regime's security posture by noting that Qasem Soleimani and Mohammad Reza Zahedi, two senior commanders killed in Israeli strikes, 'are already sleeping' and urges followers to 'leave them alone.'
The material circulated as Iran continues to threaten retaliation against Israel for the elimination of senior commanders. The Iranian Intelligence Ministry and IRGC have repeatedly vowed 'blood revenge' for the deaths of Khamenei and other officials. The sardonic tone of the post, which offers a 'lottery' with soybean packages as prizes for predicting the next target, represents a rare public expression of satire directed at the regime's security apparatus, which typically suppresses dissent.
The Zioneer has previously reported on the Iranian regime's use of intelligence and security forces to project power internally and externally. The post suggests a degree of public cynicism regarding the regime's security claims, though it is unclear how widely the material has spread or whether authorities have taken action against those who shared it.
