The ayatollah is "nu guappo 'e cardboard"

If he were the protagonist of a film by Giuseppe Tornatore, Ben Gazzara wouldn’t hesitate for a moment to define him as “no guappo and cardboard“, that is, an apparently contemptuous and threatening person who in words acts like a bully, but in reality cowers in fear.

This expression typically Neapolitanmade famous to the general public by the film ‘Il Camorrista’, seems to marry perfectly with the character of Ali Khameneithe Supreme Leader of the Islamic Republic of Iran, who, now aware of having reached the end of the line, has chosen to exorcise fear by announcing the destruction of the State of Israel. The last in chronological order was the commemoration of Hassan Nasrallah. In front of a crowd of faithful gathered in the mosque Imam Khomeini Grand Mosalla for the Friday prayer sermon, the ayatollah, accompanied by his service rifle, first officiated the funeral ceremony in honor of the late Hezbollah leader, and then threatened the “vampire” Israel for the umpteenth time.

In short, in order not to prove to the Iranians that own weaknessAyatollah Khamenei, now an orphan of the protective belt of Hamas and Hezbollah and completely incapable of standing up to Israel militarily, flexes his muscles and symbolically throws down the gauntlet towards his most bitter enemy, in a desperate attempt to distance the ghosts of an epilogue that appears already written.
