The Iranian Case for Bombing Iran
(Spectator-UK) Atbin Moayedi - Think about how bad things would have to be for ordinary Iranians to plead for Donald Trump to carry out military intervention against their own country. Iranian women, children, men, flora and fauna are dying at the hands of the Iranian regime. Killing is what they do and what they believe is their divine duty to carry out. There is no Western power that would be responsible for the deaths of more Iranians than their own government and its proxies. The Islamic Republic does not only deliver death through murder but also through its incompetence and indifference. In 2024, 59,000 Iranians died as a result of air pollution. Iran consistently has one of the highest road fatality rates globally. During the pandemic, Khamenei banned the import of Covid-19 vaccines from the U.S. and UK, causing 146,000 preventable deaths. Thousands of people in Iran die every year because of the systemic corruption that causes shortages of essential medicine. Decades of aggressive dam construction, river diversion projects and groundwater over-extraction has reduced to dry basins once-thriving ecosystems and lakes, devastating local communities and agriculture, leading to droughts, failed crops, starvation and poverty. The Islamic Republic is a mafia, an enormous racketeering business. Iranians inside Iran are hoping and waiting. They are asking when the U.S. will strike against the central commanders of the regime and the IRGC. Military action in Iran would not be war, it would be a rescue mission.
