AntiMullah.com has an update. Reports are coming out of Iran saying that Khamenei is alive and not sick—the latter being clearly false, and so it can be assumed that those reports are coming from regime sources. The blog also analyzes some recent activity in Iran:
Denial of Khamenei Senior’s death has to overcome some visible changes:
1. Government buildings are being draped in black cloth. (Reports on this come from multiple Twitters).
2. All Islamic Iranian TV announcers have suddenly turned to wearind all black clothing.
3. Bassiji Suppression forces have poured into the streets to enforce crowd control and prevent gatherings, which have not yet taken place.
4. The constant grumbling of clerics about the Supreme Ruler and efforts to replace him with a Ruling Committee have abruptly ceased.
Anti-Mullah is also right to point out that Khomeini’s status as being comatose existed for two months before his death was officially announced.
It’s possible, as he points out, that the regime is trying to keep word from leaking out while they figure out how to handle his succession.
