Look carefully at these images.

Twenty-five years ago, we Iranians took to the streets after 9/11. We lit candles. We mourned the victims. We chanted against terrorism.

We did not need anyone to explain terrorism to us.

We had lived it. We knew what it looked like.

We knew what it meant when innocent people become targets simply because extremists have declared them enemies.

Twenty-five years later, I am here in America, and it breaks my heart to see that defeating terrorism is still not treated as a common human cause. Instead, even terrorism has been dragged into partisan politics.

And what troubles me most is watching parts of the Western left offer excuses, romanticize, or even express solidarity with forces such as Hamas, Hezbollah, the Houthis, and the Islamic Republic instead of standing unequivocally with the people who have suffered from their violence.

Terrorism does not become resistance because you like its political slogan.

Believe me, a terrorist does not become a freedom fighter because his victims belong to the “wrong” side of your politics.

On September 11, 2001, ordinary Iranians understood something very simple: the victims deserved our solidarity, and the terrorists deserved our condemnation.

That principle should not be controversial 25 years later.

You can oppose war. You can criticize governments. You can disagree fiercely about foreign policy. But there should never be a left-wing terrorism and a right-wing terrorism. There is terrorism and there are its victims.

Twenty-five years ago, Iranians lit candles for Americans.

Today, from America, I still believe in the same principle:

Stand with the victims.
Stand against terrorism.
No excuses. No double standards.

President Bush is at Booker Elementary School in Sarasota, Florida, reading “My Pet Goat” to schoolchildren. White House Chief of Staff Andrew Card rushes over and whispers in his ear: “a second plane has hit the tower. America is under attack.”

President Bush is seen to consider the statement for a second, and then continue reading the book.

Ernst Jünger explica, a los 90 años, el curso de una jornada ordinaria:

«Me levanto a las nueve, tomo un baño a la temperatura del agua que sale de la llave. Actualmente es de cinco grados, por lo que no puede durar mucho tiempo; salgo reconfortado».

"Deberías haber visto cómo ha quedado el otro".

En 1953, Norman Rockwell pintó "The young girl with a black eye" (La niña con el ojo morado). A simple vista, una niña magullada. Si te fijas en los detalles, una genialidad absoluta.

Tiene el ojo morado, el pelo completamente despeinado y la ropa sucia. Viene de una pelea.

Pero no está asustada ni llorando. Está sonriendo de oreja a oreja, está orgullosa.

Si bajamos la mirada, vemos que tiene las rodillas raspadas y con tiritas, pero mantiene una postura firme, agarrando la silla con fuerza. Se ha remangado la camisa dispuesta a todo. Es la viva imagen de la satisfacción tras haber aceptado un desafío.

¿Y contra quién ha sido la pelea?

A través de la puerta del despacho del director, vemos a la secretaria y al profesor (o al otro chico) discutiendo preocupados el castigo.

Ella espera fuera, pero no le importa lo más mínimo.

La magia de este cuadro es que no necesitas ver la pelea para saber exactamente qué pasó. La actitud de la niña te lo dice todo sin hablar:

"Deberías haber visto cómo ha quedado el otro".
