JERUSALEM, Israel – As Americans celebrated 250 years of independence on the Fourth of July, Iran began the days-long funeral for the Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who was killed at the beginning of the Iran war in February. Thousands of mourners gathered for the funeral in Tehran on Saturday. Khamenei, who had headed the Islamic regime since 1989, died on February 28 in a joint U.S.-Israeli airstrike in the opening volley of Operation Epic Fury, known in Israel as Operation Roaring Lion. Pro-regime demonstrators carried signs calling for the end of the U.S.A. and urging, "Kill Trump." The crowd also chanted, "Death to Israel" and "Death to America."
