Could Iran’s leadership be on the brink of disarray? Perhaps. According to a Sunday report from the Jerusalem Post, Iran’s President, Masoud Pezeshkian, has reportedly submitted his resignation to Mojtaba Khamenei, the Supreme Leader who is believed to still be alive. If accurate, this development might indicate significant instability within Iran’s civil government.
However, it’s important to remember that this information comes from an anonymous source, which means it should be taken with caution. The alleged reason behind this potential shake-up is the increasing dominance of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), which has apparently sidelined much of the country’s civil governance.
 Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian sent a letter to Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei’s office submitting his resignation, London-based anti-regime outlet Iran International reported on Sunday.
An anonymous official told Iran International that the letter had called out the fact that the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps had effectively taken over large portions of the government, and that the president and other high-ranking officials had been cut out of vital decision-making.
Pezeshkian, the letter emphasized, was unable to run the government or fulfill his responsibilities under the circumstances, and as such, requested to resign.
Note that this is information from an anonymous source, so don’t bet the farm on it. But note the reason given: That the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has taken over to the point where much of the country’s civil government is no longer in the loop.
