There is something profoundly rotten in the soul of any Iranian who waves the flag of America or Israel while cheering for the bombing of Iran. These are the same people who speak endlessly about freedom, dignity, and freedom of speech, yet the moment someone refuses to celebrate the destruction of Iran, their birthland, they unleash insults, abuse, and character assassination. That is not principle. That is not courage. That is hypocrisy in its ugliest form. It is the hypocrisy of people so blinded by hatred for the government of a country that they have learned to hate the country itself, the people themselves, and even the blood in their own veins. History has always had room for cowards like this. Imagine the Mongol invasion tearing through old Persia and some Persian fools who didn’t like the king, standing at the gates carrying Mongol banners & flags, praying that foreign slaughter would somehow deliver them salvation. Imagine Christian citizens of Constantinople furious with their ruler, so consumed by resentment that they welcomed the Muslim Ottoman conqueror at the walls and mistook conquest for liberation. History does not honor such people. It spits them out. It remembers them as weak men and women who confused revenge with justice and servitude with freedom. They are the modern day heirs of traitors like Ephialtes of Trachis, the man remembered for betraying the Spartans at Thermopylae to their enemies, and Mir Jafar, who betrayed Siraj ud Daulah and sided with the British at the Battle of Plassey in 1757, helping the British take control of Bengal and marking the beginning of nearly 200 years of colonial rule in India. What makes this even more grotesque is that someone like me, who has lived outside Iran from tender age of Six for almost forty years, can say with absolute clarity that I do not want my birthland bombed, my people buried under rubble, my hospitals shattered, my schools attacked, my historical places destroyed, my infrastructure broken, or my children burned alive, and suddenly I am called a regime supporter. How pathetic. How morally bankrupt. Since when did loving your people become an endorsement of those who rule them. Since when did refusing to applaud foreign missiles killing and destroying my birthland become proof of political loyalty. Only a truly diseased political culture and bloodthirsty could produce such filth of thought. These people dismiss the death of little girls in schools and the bombing of 100+ hospitals as collateral damage. They look at destroyed homes, grieving mothers, shattered families, and erased neighborhoods and shrug as if all of it is an acceptable price for their fantasy of political change. More than twenty thousand homes destroyed, essential institutions hit, lives ruined, and still they talk like armchair executioners who will never pay the price themselves. Most of them do not even intend to return to Iran. They want to gamble with the lives of others from the comfort of exile, from the safety of Western cities, from behind screens and slogans and flags that are not their own. That is not bravery. That is moral cowardice. And then comes the simplest question of all, a question so obvious that only a fanatic or a fool would run from it. Name one country America or Israel has bombed into freedom. Name one nation they shattered and left more sovereign, more peaceful, more dignified, and more free than before. The lesson of history is plain for anyone willing to see it. Empires do not bomb nations because they love them. States do not rain fire on people because they care about their liberty. Power acts for power. Interests act for interests. Propaganda wraps destruction in noble language and calls it liberation so that the gullible may applaud their own humiliation. And spare me the sermon about Iranian women’s rights, Freedom and human dignity from powers that have failed their own women, girls & people, stained the world with war, and wrapped exploitation in the language of virtue. Do not ask us to believe that the same Epstein government who raped little girls, the same government who ran Iraqi rape camps, and the same system that failed so many women at home and abroad, violated them, protected predators, excused abuse, and looked away from moral rot in its own halls of power, has now arrived as the guardian of Iranian women, Iranian children, or Iranian natural resources. Spare me that fantasy. These are the same corrupt American and Israeli governments that speak endlessly about freedom for Iran while turning other nations into battlefields, stripping them of stability, and then daring to call the wreckage progress. Iraq, Libya, Palestine, Afghanistan, Lebanon, Egypt, Syria, Chile, Korea, Cambodia. How many countries has America truly freed with all these bombings? Have people forgotten the carpet bombing campaign against Cambodia, a nation that was not officially at war with the United States, where more than 231,000 bombing sorties were flown and over 500,000,000 kilograms of explosives were dropped, or the 2,000,000+ of innocent lives destroyed in Iraq & Syria? Anyone who still believes Benjamin Netanyahu or the American Government is moved by love for Iran is a moron who refuses to see the world as it is. A U.S. government that does not offer real freedom even to its own people, and an Israeli government that jails its own citizens for filming Iranian missiles, now wants to lecture Iranians about liberty and spend billions because they supposedly love Iran that much? Are these Pahlavi supporters really this stupid? They are swallowing propaganda like medicine and calling their sickness wisdom. Let us call these dissidents what they are. Not visionaries. Not patriots. Not liberators. They are puppets. They are useful idiots. They are modern traitors, political scavengers feeding on the pain of their own nation. They have allowed themselves to become props in a story written by others, a cheap propaganda device used to sell war as salvation. They wave foreign flags over Persian blood and still dare to speak the language of patriotism. They are not the conscience of Iran. They are the embarrassment of it. I no longer say wake up to them, because life teaches you that some people are too far gone. Fanaticism hardens into identity. Hatred becomes their oxygen. Betrayal becomes their personality & character. This is not written for them. It is written for the Iranians inside Iran who are suffering, who are grieving, who are afraid, who are exhausted, and who deserve to know that not all Iranians outside the country are this stupid, this hollow, or this morally bankrupt. Many of us love you. Many of us stand with you. Many of us refuse to celebrate your suffering. Your pain is not a political game. Our dead children and civilians are not bargaining chips. Our homeland is not a chessboard for foreign powers or exiled opportunists. And to North Americans, Europeans & the western world who may encounter these people, understand this clearly. Anyone willing to betray their own motherland, their own people, their own bloodlines and their own civilization because they hate a government is showing you exactly what they are. If they will cheer the bombing of their own country, their own people and children today, they will justify the destruction of yours tomorrow when it becomes convenient. A traitor does not change because the flag changes. Betrayal is not a phase. It is character. Once a traitor, always a traitor.

UN experts concerned by #Israel altering Jerusalem’s demographic composition, religious character & legal status. These acts constitute the ethnic cleansing of #Palestine, by whatever means, whatever the cost and whatever crimes it takes. ohchr.org/en/press-relea…
