If Iran's Leaders Won't Change, Its People Will Force Them
(Jerusalem Post) Joseph I. Lieberman and Mark D. Wallace - United Against Nuclear Iran is working to hold Tehran accountable for its actions, and to stop businesses around the world from engaging with the regime and its terrorist agents. Our goal is to convince Iran to end its malign behavior and behave like a responsible member of the community of nations, or sacrifice the viability of its economy and watch its people continue to suffer. History has shown that when forced to make a choice, the ayatollah has demonstrated a willingness to negotiate, as regime survival is his primary concern. The U.S. has initiated the maximum pressure campaign against Iran to do just that. Only Khamenei and his regime can make the big course corrections that are rightfully demanded and entirely necessary or, ultimately, the Iranian people will step in. We can help them make that decision so the world becomes safer faster. Former U.S. senator Joseph I. Lieberman is chairman of United Against Nuclear Iran. Mark D. Wallace, a former U.S. ambassador to the UN for management and reform, is UANI's chief executive.
