Fleeing is seen as dishonorable in many parts of the Arab world. Remember the Israeli lies about how Yahya Sinwar dressed in women's clothes and were trying to cross the border to Egypt? In reality he was out in the field with his men killing Israeli soldiers. He died a brave death and Khamenei will now have died one too.

Iran isn’t an arab country.

  • Great, but that is nit-picking---I'm describing a cultural trait present in Iran which makes certain decisions seem irrational to Westerners.

    • I would like to hear more about the cultural traits that seem irrational to Westerners.

      For what it's worth, I agree with you about Sinwar dying while fighting.
