The first six of which to my understanding are token roles, sometimes de jure, but definitely de facto. This is unlike the role of the Iranian Supreme Leader, who according to my findings is heavily involved and has the license to do so.
I don't know what country Arabia is supposed to be.
> The Guardian Council is an elected body with the power to remove the so-called "Supreme Leader", so his power is limited too
You know that I considered and checked for all of this ahead of time, right? These loopholes are very on the nose.
The Supreme Leader directly elects 6 of the Guardian Council members, but also the judiciary chief, who elects the other 6.
The Supreme Leader is elected and kept in position by the people-elected Assembly of Experts, the applications for which are... filtered through by the Guardian Council. And considering they have never exercised their authority to as much as condemn but especially to remove a Supreme Leader according to my search, it's a reasonable conclusion that either everything is magically harmonious over there, or this authority in practice is a token one too.
I have also looked into whether these bodies are partial, and not only is this true covertly, it is true openly. Candidates that don't fit the bill on any of these levels are proudly filtered out in droves.
I'm really quite unconvinced you're here to inform with honesty in mind.
We have ChatGPT. We are not dumb. Stop the propaganda.
The Assembly of Experts members are elected directly by the people every 8 years, and it operates independently of the Guardian Council once it's seated.
Who elects your king? Trump or Satanyahu
But who gets on the ballot is controlled by the Guardian Council. So it's like how you could get the first car Ford produced in any color, as long as that color was the color black.
Surely this is not new info to you?

If you think this is a boxing or football match of some sort, please consult the forum guidelines. We're not here to beat each other (or you) down.
Again. I don't want a king. I want people not to die when they go protest. AM I ASKING TOO MUCH??
It seems like you are great at repeating propaganda points and don't actually live in Iran because otherwise you wouldn't have internet.
The Guardian Council is an elected body with the power to remove the so-called "Supreme Leader", so his power is limited too and is not hereditary, unlike monarchies of Europe and Asia
