Now, part of what makes the situation so deadly is Iran's constitution gives the supreme leader and only the supreme leader command over the armed forces.
So even though they have a president, the president can't countermand
a provincial commander.
Parliament can't revoke firing authority once it's been given.
Only the supreme leader can turn off the war machine.
And the new supreme leader, Mojtaba Khomeini, this is Khomeini's son, is reportedly in critical condition and on a ventilator somewhere in an ICU under heavy protection.

It is very surprising that we're not seeing more of that.
