Apparently there are some folks in Iran that are not mourning properly.  Btw, how many virgins does one get when they end up in the bad place?

 

Iranians CELEBRATE the death of President Raisi with fireworks while victims of his torturous regime and their loved ones dance and drink a toast to his fatal helicopter crash

 

Iran's Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei has declared the nation will observe five days of mourning following the death of President Ebrahim Raisi in a devastating helicopter crash in the mountainous northwest of the country yesterday. 
 

But there are plenty of Iranians who are instead celebrating the unexpected death of the president, who has earned a reputation as a brutal, hardline executor of Khamenei's will.

 

The daughters of Minoo Majidi - a 62-year-old Iranian woman who was one of hundreds of people shot dead by security services during the nationwide fallout following the death of Mahsa Amini in September 2022 - shared a video to social media raising a glass to the president's demise.

the mossad

A KGB agent, a CIA agent, and a Mossad agent were arguing about whose organization was most efficient.  They agreed to hold a contest:  each would go into the woods to bring back a deer, and whoever came out earliest would be the winner.

 

The KGB agent went first.  Two hours later, he reappeared, dragging a deer.

 

The CIA agent went next.  One hour later, he reappeared, dragging a deer.

 

The Mossad agent went in, and in half an hour, he came out holding a frightened rabbit.

 

"That's not a deer; that's a rabbit," said the other agents.

 

"Ah, but the rabbit confessed!" said the Mossad agent.

The crash, which occurred in a mountainous region of northwestern Iran, also claimed the lives of Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian and six other passengers.

“The Secretary-General expresses his sincere condolences to the families of the deceased and to the Government and people of the Islamic Republic of Iran,” Mr. Guterres’ Spokesperson said in a statement released in New York on Monday.

The Biden WH wasn't much better.  I do wonder what the reaction would be if it was Putin?
