Piers Morgan asked Mehdi Hasan a whopping seven times in a row whether he was happy that Ayatollah Ali Khamenei was no longer ruling Iran after his assassination — but the former MSNBC host refused to answer, calling it a “loaded question.”
During his show “Piers Morgan Uncensored” on Wednesday, Morgan asked Hasan — the founder of Substack newsletter Zeteo — whether he was glad Khamenei was no longer ruling the nation after joint US and Israeli strikes last month killed the leader and many of his possible successors.
“It’s a good question. I don’t take pleasure in killing anyone. I don’t think you should illegally kill the leader, the foreign leader of a nation,” Hasan replied.
