It does not matter how anybody feels about President Trump, I hereby confirm that he is a Godsent. The conviviality and the rolling of drums that accompanied the dead of Ali Khamenei is a clear confirmation of the scriptural injunction that when the righteous rules the people rejoice.

The Iranian diaspora around the world has begun to celebrate the death of Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei after the United States and Israel carried out strikes on Tehran.

Several videos came out online on Saturday of Iranians cheering and dancing after missiles descended on Iran’s capital city. Celebrations ramped up as President Donald Trump and Israeli officials confirmed the religious leader was killed at age 86 after 35 years of leadership.

Citizens in Tehran whistled and cheered from their balconies and through their windows in video footage posted to X after 11 p.m., local time.

Sana Ebrahimi, an Iranian-born Fox News contributor, announced the news to her hundreds of thousands of followers on Saturday afternoon, including a video of herself jumping and dancing to “Y.M.C.A.” by Village People.

“I am an Iranian and this is the best day of my life,” she said. “The dictator, the killer, Ali Khamenei is dead.”

Independent journalist Raheem J. Kassam posted his experience at the White House to X, attaching a video of a large crowd waving American and Persian flags while blaring “Y.M.C.A.”, a song associated with President Trump.

“Wow, it’s crazy in downtown D.C. right now as hundreds of Persians descend on the White House to celebrate the ouster of the Iranian Islamic regime,” he wrote.

Before Khamenei’s death was confirmed, Iranians gathered in the streets in Australia, the United Kingdom, Norway, Spain and Germany, waving the historical Persian flag from before the Islamic Revolution of the late 1970s, which features a lion and sun symbol.

Prior to the Islamic revolution, Iran was a monarchy under the Pahlavi dynasty, which ruled since 1925. From the 1950s to the 1970s, the Shah pursued many modernization efforts, building roads, railways and factories and expanding universities and hospitals. Iran became a leading economy in the region during the 1960s and 70s.
