Iran Vows Revenge After Khamenei Funeral as War with US and Israel Continues

Tens of thousands gathered in Tehran for the funeral of assassinated Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei, as Iran's new leadership and IRGC commanders publicly vowed vengeance against America and Israel following a war that began in February 2026. The explicit cries of 'Death to Israel' and the red flags of Shia martyrdom signal that Iran's hostility toward God's covenant nation is not diminishing but intensifying under new leadership — a direct fulfilment of the ancient prophetic pattern of nations surrounding and threatening Israel. Ezekiel 38 describes a coalition of nations led by powers to the north and east of Israel rising in a great assault, and the alignment of Iran, Hezbollah, Hamas, and the Houthis — all present at this funeral — mirrors precisely the 'Axis' that Scripture warns will one day converge against Jerusalem.
