In a shocking turn of events, Iran’s ‘supreme leader’ Ayatollah Ali Khamenei was nowhere to be found during recent negotiations with the United States over the country’s nuclear program. Sources close to the situation revealed that the missing mullah was reportedly hiding in a bunker while US forces pounded Iranian nuclear sites.
When asked about Khamenei’s absence, Iranian officials scrambled to come up with a plausible excuse. “Oh, the supreme leader? He’s just taking a well-deserved vacation in the mountains,” said Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif, trying to downplay the situation.
Meanwhile, US officials were left scratching their heads at Khamenei’s disappearance. “We were all set to negotiate with him, but it seems he had other plans,” said Secretary of State Antony Blinken. “Maybe he’s just camera shy.”
As tensions escalated between the two countries, rumors began to swirl about Khamenei’s whereabouts. Some speculated that he had been kidnapped by aliens, while others suggested he was holed up in a secret underground bunker playing hide and seek.
But just when it seemed like Khamenei would never emerge from hiding, a spokesperson for the Iranian government finally broke the silence. “The supreme leader has been busy meditating and communing with the spirit of the Ayatollah Khomeini,” said the spokesperson. “He will reappear when the time is right.”
In the end, Khamenei’s mysterious disappearance only added to the chaos of the situation. As the US continued its airstrikes on Iranian nuclear sites, the missing mullah became a symbol of Iran’s ineptitude in the face of international pressure.
Whether Khamenei will ever resurface remains to be seen. But one thing is for sure – the world will be watching, and laughing, as Iran’s ‘supreme leader’ plays a game of hide and seek with the global community.
