A message of condolence on the death of “Ali Davaani” is said to have been issued by Khamenei yesterday ( according to his website www.leader.ir). Also his appearance and speech in Eid-e Qadir has been covered ( with pictures + text ) in the same site.
By the way I am glad you used the concept ” you might have been gulled”. In such a case we should try to understand what has been the real reason for the regime to let such a fake story “leak” and what were they checking indeed. You might have seen the news that a “nuclear spy” was arrested in Majlis ( the parliament ). I hope the news you spread so fast has not been a trap to know some decent people who are fed up with the regime.
I write from Tehran and I apologize if my English is not fluent anyways.

I don’t think there is much mystery about the large numbers of people who are fed up with the regime. The whole world knows that. And a real spy, someone who leaked nuclear secrets, wouldn’t be uncovered by a phony story about the Leader’s death.

Finally, the Leader’s constantly changing web site’s publishing a “statement” and photographs doesn’t prove anything.

Do you know anyone who actually saw him in Qom yesterday?
