According to multiple informed sources, U.S. intelligence agencies have informed Trump and his inner circle that Iran's late Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei had doubts about his son Mojtaba Khamenei succeeding him, as he felt Mojtaba was not smart enough and lacked the qualifications to be a leader. The intelligence also showed that the elder Khamenei was aware of some issues in Mojtaba's personal life. However, Trump privately expressed uncertainty about the importance of this intelligence, believing that Iran is currently effectively leaderless, and that Mojtaba may have already died. He mentioned this during an interview with NBC on Saturday. The White House believes that the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps is currently in control of the situation, which represents a significant change compared to the theocratic authoritarian system in Iran since the 1979 revolution. On Friday, the U.S. federal government offered a $10 million reward for information regarding Mojtaba and the whereabouts of nine other key Iranian officials.
