“Now we have full and full control over the sky over Iran,” Donald Trump has just boasted. The key word here is “we” – it means Netanyahu and Trump.

This is a kind of moment when Donald Trump Seems to have The only figure capable of stopping the current war between Benjamin Netanyahu’s regimes in Israel and Ali Khamenei Islamic Republic of Iran: Rwo leaders, whose years of hostility have not only caused harm to their own people, but still establish all the Middle East. Both men deserve to be tried in Hague – Bibi for their Genocidal policy and Illegal military machineand 86-year-old ayatollah for constantly stifle any form of public dissent For decades, pushing a useless nuclear program that brought the Iranian nation nothing but grief and using sanctions to build a huge financial empire for Loyal regime elites on the back Fighting the Iranian public.
All this in a significant turning point where in Trump The last remarks The authenticity of the truth indicates the complete military support of Israel, saying: “Now we have full and complete control over the sky over Iran.” The key word here is “we” – it means Netanyahu and Trump.
According to Washington’s Based Rights Based on DCLess than four days that continues Israel’s air has led to more than 400 civil victims in Iran with injuries approaches 1000. Meanwhile, Iran’s government missiles strike Parts of Tel -Awiva, Petakh Tikva, Haifa and Jerusalem, killing 24 Israelis and injured dozens. Once again, these are ordinary people who remain to pay the price for the unusual habris, greed and ideological bigotry of these two leaders.
For many years, the world has been rightfully ralled around the Russian war with Ukraine, the atrocities of the attack on October 7 on Israel, justice for the Syrians under the violent management of Assad and for a very necessary ceasefire in Gaza. However, in the midst of this crisis, the Iranian people remain the most single works of this cruel geopolitical puzzle – having passed between theocracy, which has long betrayed them, and the world that continues to ignore their shouts.
From unprecedented uprisings during Green Movement in 2009 by Bloody Protests 2019and most recently 2022 Woman, Life, Movement for FreedomMillions of Iranians peacefully poured out on the streets to express their disdain for Ayatollah, risked their lives for an inch of freedom and were crushed in return – just to proclaim the world: We don’t want this mode.
Today Iran’s bright and most courageous are in prisons“Winkers, artistsright activists. Lawyers. teachersand journalists– Very women and men who to present the future Free Iran.
However, once and again the world did little, but looks. Today, as a world-class arsenal of Israel, appointed by the United States military forcescontrol Iran’s airspace Both Netanyahu and Trump issuing urgently evacuation orders for densely populated cities. For ordinary Iranian people, who do not hope for prudence or defense against their government, these warnings are called hollow. The “empty gestures” was a verdict of an engineer waiting for hours on the gas station for only 15 liters (4 liters) of gasoline in the north Tehran. Those who live in the densely populated cities of Iran are too well aware that there is no chance of evacuation of millions from wide city centers for several hours.
In addition to the very short moment, which approached the appetites of the Western media and public during the woman, life, uprising, Iranian folk complaints have long been buried under the explosion of its own government, as well as the strategic position and interests of foreign countries. Now, as never before, the Iranian people call for global empathy – to be noticed to hear their death counted near their Israeli colleagues. Even more urgently – perhaps the last time – they seek to see the world through the humanized lens in the conditions of complete degumanization of both the Islamic and the Israeli state.
Most Iranians are now in pure survival mode – just trying not to die in cross -fire they did not choose or controlled. Even if Netanyahu manage to kill The man he characterizes as his archenes, the euphoria over the death of Khamenei, is felt by millions of Iranians, it may not be enough to cure the wounds of a deeply terrible nation – at least in the short term.
“We were coming from year to year-beam again and again, and the world has just watched,” said the 39-year-old project manager from the Third District Tehran, who had just been ordered to evacuate the IDF. Stacking on the move, trying to escape to the northern Iran by the car, she added: “If we are experiencing this time – one or the other, we will not return to the past. And if we die, we will not finally see the result of our blood. We do not deserve them to get between the two monsters.”
Despite the fact that one of the most repressive regimes in the world, the Iranian people invariably showed intellectual resilience, cultural depth and social sophistication – along with passionate persistence, courage and desire to reflect a lot of millions worldwide. Unlike the ethos of the country’s governing regime, Iran has one of the highest Number of literacy Some of the highest engineers, doctors and scientists relative to neighboring countries are produced in the region. Iran remains a society where women’s participation in labor and higher education remains much high. Almost 70 percent Graduates of the University of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) are women. Iran’s diaspora is one of the most educated and its internal artists. directorsAnd poets continue to create what they call “miracles” despite the suffocating censorship and constant danger.
Surrounded by 12 earthly, air and water borders, Iran is a nation that, if not crushed by sanctions, internal repression and international insulation, can contribute to globally progress than one. However, for almost four decades – as a result of the Islamic regime’s behavior – its people were marginalized by the world for the crimes they did not commit, while deceiving, terrorized and humiliated at home.
Although some may still accept the IDF statement that it does not intend to focus on civilians, such intentions become meaningless when rain bombs on densely populated quarters in this fast war-conflict, which will inevitably kill the innocent Iranians, who spilled their blood for decades.
“We just want to breathe. We want to live. We want to end it all,” said the Jewish designer in Tehran-to-put a permanent cry for peace-queries from people who are long brutally, unprecedented and incorrectly represented by the ruling regime and abandoned the international community as a whole.
One way or another, the war will end, but the highest price, again, will be paid by the Iranian people – many of which may not live to see the sun over their combat homeland.
