On the irony of cameras built to police Iranians (namely women) becoming the regime�s Achilles� heel

A tweet by a journalist.
-My daughter, what is your father's job?
- My dad takes pictures of women.
-In the studio?
-No, in the subway.
The cameras that had surveilled women for showing their hair, that had tracked protesters through city streets, that had sent threatening text messages to millions, those same cameras led the strike team to Khamenei�s door.
Edited to clarify which "Supreme Leader" in the title.
Even one is too many.
