Iran and Israel are at war.
You’ve probably read the news online or seen footage of it on Twitter. But can you guess who hasn’t? Most Iranians. Not the war part, the Twitter part and that’s because Twitter, sorry, X, ‘the everything app’ is banned in Iran.
But not for all Iranian citizens. Nope. The Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei has been a pretty avid poster for over a decade. Tweeting things about books, movies and his love of women. And, yes, his hatred of Israel as well.
Here are 10 of my favorite Khamenei tweets:

Science fictions are important. Things that once existed in fictions have turned into realities. Reading science fiction opens new horizons to one's mind. Isaac Asimov's "The Bicentennial Man”, the story of a robot that develops conscience and cognition, is one example. 4/2/1992

Economic woes won’t cause anxiety, but cultural problems agitate one to lose sleep over them.
