Let's start a new conspiracy theory.

Did Ukraine bump him off as
he was selling death drones to Russia?

He was in a very old Bell 212 helicopter, and it would have been almost impossible for Iran to obtain spare parts for it.

This is almost certainly the result of a mechanical failure due to a lack of maintenance.

It's a pity the helicopter was destroyed.

I think it was only an accident but many
countries would be glad about it:
USA, Israel, Ukraine.
He was selling death drones to Russia used to kill people in Ukraine.
He has been at the head of a decades long proxy war against Israel.
The USA has been in a cold war with Iran since 1979.

He wasn't a nice guy -
he had the blood of many on his hands.

He took part in 'death commissions' that ordered the execution of 10,000 political prisoners.

Hard to imagine why anyone would mourn his death.

He was a murderer - he was a beast in league with Satan.

I feel bad about the old helicopter.

It could have been put in an aviation museum.

I wish Trump would buy a helicopter.

https://www.timesofisrael.com/irans-raisi-confirmed-dead-in-helicopter-crash-nea...

Before becoming president, Raisi held various positions inside the judiciary under the purview of Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. As a prosecutor, and at the end of the Iran-Iraq War in 1988,

he sat on the committee that sentenced thousands of political prisoners to death.

The executions earned him the moniker

“Butcher of Tehran,”

and he was subsequently subjected to sanctions by the United States and to condemnation by the United Nations and international human rights organizations.

From 2006 until his death, Raisi served on the Assembly of Experts, a body that appoints and supervises the supreme leader.

Khamenei, who holds ultimate power with a final say on foreign policy and Iran’s nuclear program, had earlier sought to reassure Iranians, saying there would be no disruption to state affairs.

Yes the President is just a figurehead for the supreme leader.

Everything is done according to what supreme leader wants.

Nothing much will change until the Dictator dies then another bearded nutjob who believes in flying donkeys will replace him

Leftists and the Ayatollahs have a lot in common when it comes to criticism of Islam, they don't tolerate it.
