There are no doubt some who are saddened by the death of Iranian president Ebrahim Raisi. Iran-backed Islamist militias, for instance, have clearly been dismayed by the news of his fatal helicopter crash on Sunday. Lebanon’s Hezbollah extended its ‘deepest condolences’ to Iran’s leaders. Hamas, the anti-Semitic terror group currently fighting Israel in Gaza, went even further to express its ‘feelings of sadness and pain’. Its leaders pledged their ‘complete solidarity’ with the Islamic Republic.
