This was in January 2021, right after the attempted insurrection.

"The Post decided not to report on the episode at the time because the flag-raising appeared to be the work of Martha-Ann Alito, rather than the justice, and connected to a dispute with her neighbors, a Post spokeswoman said. It was not clear then that the argument was rooted in politics, the spokeswoman said." Free link: https://wapo.st/4dS1BCf

As intelligence services investigate whether the Iranian helicopter crash was the result of sabotage, and who had a motive, this is worth pondering. "His [the president's] death may pave the way for Mr. Khamenei’s son Mojtaba to assume the role of supreme leader." https://www.nytimes.com/live/2024/05/19/world/iran-president-crash/here-are-the-latest-developments?smid=url-share
