TEHRAN — They say the future is not singular, but plural. This is the first lesson we were forced to learn in the days of war: a future that is the byproduct of the actors' deeds; an assemblage of probabilities resulting from the superposition of daily affairs; an accumulation that only abstract thought, or perhaps someone tethered to a metaphysical reference, can perceive as a whole.

The Assembly of Experts elected Ayatollah Seyyed Mojtaba Khamenei as Iran’s third Leader, swiftly dismantling Washington’s fantasies of internal chaos.

From his defiant messages to the nationwide rallies of allegiance, these articles document a nation standing firm.
