The US and Israel are confirming that Supreme Leader Khomeini is indeed dead.

Israeli and American heads of state said he’s dead but the Iranian government has yet to say anything.

[Hatfort]

The US and Israel launched the attack together, under the false premise of the nuclear issue, which Iran does not have and has been historically willing to concede on, like in the agreement Obama reached, which Trump withdrew in his first term. The US and Israel want a puppet regime in Iran too, that's the real motive. There's no sane justification for Trump doing this from the American interest point of view. It's a huge gamble from Israel's part as well, Iran is not a small guy. Trump continues to obey Israel, as he always has, he is an Israel agent, I think it's via blackmail. 

Even with all the US forces moving to the area last weeks, Iran resisted to strike first, which was the right call. The first day US-Israel has tried to decapitate Iran's leadership, it's unknown if the Ayatollah is alive or not. An elementary school was bombarded, more than fifty little girls and their teachers killed. The US and Israel killing children, nothing new, Western media barely or not mentioning this massacre, business as usual as well.

Iran has started its retaliation, US bases have been attacked in Bahrain and others. The strait of Hormuz may be closed by Iran to put pressure in the world economy by affecting the supply of oil. We'll see what more comes, both sides. As@zazensaid, neither side should be underestimated, we don't know what cards they hold.

Iran has attacked Saudi Arabia and the UAE....it seems their only allies might be Russia and China who probably won't wanna get involved.  Especially if their leader is already knocked off as it is being claimed.  Iran isn't going to come out and say their leader is dead it would be a sign of weakness so they need to portray they are not crumbling.  But right now it looks like the US and Israel are a heavy favorite.

It's illegal on many levels. International law has to become a forefront issue after this and the unsanctioned maduro operation.

I see, all US allies in the area are in this shit together, they are providing strategic positioning for the attacks at the very least.

I don't think Russia and China will get directly involved, that could be a start for WW3. They are assisting Iran technologically from what I've heard from different analysts. The Ayatollah may be dead, and they may not announce it soon if that's the case, but they had probably arranged a long line of succession anticipating the war that was coming, so I don't think this will stop the developments.

I live in Italy and all the Iranians are literally celebrating in the streets here.

Update: Iranian State TV announces that Ali Hosseini Khamenei has been martyred.

إنا لله وإنا إليه راجعون

— 🇮🇷 🏴 NEW: Iran announces 40 days of nationwide mourning and 7 days of public holiday in honor of the Supreme Leader

— 🇮🇷  Statement by the IRGC (Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps):

 

{And do not think of those who have been killed in the way of Allah as dead; rather, they are alive with their Lord, receiving provision} – Holy Quran

 

We offer our condolences and congratulations to the presence of Imam Mahdi (may our souls be sacrificed for him), the Islamic Ummah, the esteemed religious authorities and scholars, and the great nation of Iran on the honorable martyrdom of the pious scholar, the foremost martyr of the Islamic Revolution, and the rightful deputy of the Imam of the Age,  Ayatollah Khamenei, in the blessed month of Ramadan.

 

Almighty God accepted this great warrior's soul and the pure son of Lady Fatimah in the blessed month of Ramadan, like his leader, the Commander of the Faithful, Imam Ali (peace be upon him), and granted him the blessing of martyrdom.

 

We have lost a great leader and mourn him, who was unique in his era in terms of purity of the soul, strength of faith, prudence in affairs, courage against the arrogant, and jihad in the way of Allah.

 

Martyrdom at the hands of the most wicked terrorists and executioners of humanity is a sign of the righteousness of this great leader and the acceptance of his sincere services.

 

Martyrdom on the path of Islam and great Iran is a sign of victory and approaching the goal; however, with the martyrdom and migration to God of Imam Khamenei (may God be pleased with him), his path and conduct will not stop and will continue with power and glory.

 

This martyrdom will make our nation even more determined to continue the luminous path of dear Imam Khamenei.

 

The criminal and terrorist act of the wicked governments of the United States and the Zionist regime is a clear violation of all religious, ethical, legal, and customary principles; therefore, the avenging hand of the Iranian nation will not leave the perpetrators of the Imam of the Ummah's killers unpunished, and they will face severe, decisive, and regretful punishment.

 

The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, the Armed Forces of the Islamic Republic, and the great popular Basij will powerfully continue the path of their leader to defend the precious legacy of this great leader and will stand firm against internal and external conspiracies and punish the aggressors against the Islamic homeland with a lesson.

 

In conclusion, we invite all segments of society to demonstrate their national unity and cohesion with a passionate and epic presence in the scenes of national defense, showing the world and the wicked and terrorist enemies of this nation their solidarity.'

It has many. But he’s not going rogue, most of the government was supported by lobbies who support it.

Technically the power to declare was was in congress but congress let go of the power and most of the past wars were done unilaterally by the president. 

There was an actual vote in congress before the invasion of Iraq.

This could be a case of the devil doing the Lord's work.

Here is a clip with Maersheimer's analysis on Iran from the full video which was released 3 days ago.

This gives you a good overview about what the US and Israel are trying to do.

 

Edit:

I've found this interview from Jeffrey Sachs. I haven't been through it now but it seems to give a good perspective on how we got here from last years events and what's about to happen.
