I am Pirouz, an Asiatic cheetah cub born in Iran in 2022, a symbol of hope for an endangered species. I died because of the brutal Islamic Republic regime.
@LindseyGrahamSC To people around the world who don’t understand how Iranians feel when they hear about the U.S. sending forces to Iran: Iranians feel exactly how the French felt when American troops landed in Normandy, When France was under Nazi occupation. It’s the same feeling. #JavidShah
The only acceptable deal is one in which the Islamic Republic surrenders to the people of Iran.
We are ready for such a deal and it will bring peace to the region and the world.
It's difficult to discuss an MOU that is not public -- the precise terms of which we do not know. If it is done and will be signed in 48-72 hours, let's see it.
And regardless of the terms, my understanding is that there is another 60-day period of negotiation. I assume that involves the particulars.
My view has not changed because the Iranian regime is what it is -- that is, it will violate whatever final agreement is signed, certainly after the end of the Trump administration. And I doubt any future president, certainly not a Democrat, will enforce it, which would require military action.
We have the enemy where we want it. We may never again. It was right to attack them, and in a few weeks' time they were on their back. We hit the brakes for 9 weeks. First the Israelis and then we went back to military action this week, and the regime was badly damaged beyond the original damage. Rather than destroy it, including arming the Iranian people, we have an MOU and future negotiations.
More later, as we learn some actual facts.
The Lion and Sun is Iran’s true flag, not the mullahs’ filthy rag.
King Reza Pahlavi is the rightful leader, not the cardboard Ayatollah Khamenei.
Anyone who disagrees isn’t worth hearing. Free Iran! Javid Shah!
I remember when Obama tried to put distance between Netanyahu and himself. Netanyahu warned that the Obama nuclear deal would be a disaster. He’s a man worth listening to, especially when dealing with Iran.
Many patriotic Iranians have asked to be armed and/or trained so they can have a fair chance of fighting the regime. Stakeholders who can facilitate it are informed. Iranian patriots are not asking others to be their ground force. They definitely don’t want Marxists, radical Islamists, and separatists’ boots on even one inch of Iran’s ground. Iranian patriots are the boots on the ground, they are asking for help and a fair chance to fight.
I love football. But sadly the regime has turned it into a weapon against the Iranian people.
Let the Lion and Sun be seen in stadiums, outside them, wherever fans gather.
Remember those who should be here today.
Iran’s real national team is its people.
"Proportionate" response is Jimmy Carter language. The Iranian regime will never give up its nukes, no matter what they say or sign. We must be honest with ourselves. Time will prove me right, and others who understand this. It's now or likely never.
If we cannot remove the uranium, then seriously consider contaminating the sites so no one can go anywhere near them for 100 years or more. Remember the 1966 Palomares accident (you can look it up).
Any further delays in taking out this regime, and that includes arming the people, will result in both unforeseeable and predictable consequences that will be severe and constant for us, our allies, and the West generally. If not immediate then over time. No amount of negative PR campaigns against Israel or Netanyahu, who best understand the nature of things in that region, will change that. No amount of lobbying by Arab states and Turkey, who have their own interests and priorities (sound familiar) that may not and, in some cases, clearly do not align with ours, should sidetrack us.
Yes, we may lose the midterm elections, for a host of reasons that have not changed even before the war with Iran. It would be disastrous in many ways, given the radicalism of the Democrat Party and its intent to destroy our constitution, border, and economic system. But if we are perceived as losing this war, or as failing to finish the job, or declare victory without victory, it will be used against us. Victory just happens to also be good politics. The longer it takes, the more difficult it becomes.
The Islamist terrorist regime occupying Iran will fall; the Iranian people will taste true freedom, and King Reza Pahlavi will return in glory.
The Lion and Sun will roar and blaze across the heavens once more. Our victory is written in the stars.
Free Iran! Javid Shah!
Prince Reza Pahlavi: "There is a persistent temptation, understandable, human, but ultimately catastrophic and self-defeating, to seek a deal with despots… a rabid dog knows only to bite the friendly hand."
