The Iranian People Are Waiting to Be Freed
(Jerusalem Center for Security and Foreign Affairs) Sogand Fakheri - Iran today is the only country in the Middle East where the population is almost entirely united against its own government. Every ethnicity and every region speaks with one voice: the Islamic Republic must go. Have you ever heard of a population welcoming an attack on its own country by a foreign military? Iranians did, because for them, the enemy is the regime, not the bomber. At least 114 people have been executed in the past three weeks alone. More are dying under torture in prison. It is far more effective to remove the people in power permanently than to spend years hunting for its weapons across hostile territory. The writer, an Iranian-Israeli actress and Iran affairs commentator, appeared in the Emmy-winning TV series "Tehran."
