Clarion Call for Action
In a bold and deliberate blow, Israel's air force hit the Iranian regime with surgical precision. The New Dawn has brought horrifying news of a decapitated regime, its military leaders and nuclear scientists annihilated. We can no longer afford to stand idly by in the face of this menacing regime.
Salami's Guards, Iran's notorious and barbaric force, were responsible for the brutal murder of 500 innocent youths in 2022, executing them for the simple crime of desiring life and freedom. Both Salami and Bagheri are now gone, thankfully, leaving us with a spark of hope for humanity.
Adding to the list of victims is General Mohammad Bagheri, the ruthless chief of military staff, and Hossein Salami, leader of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards. These tyrants initiated an assault with proxies such as Hamas and Hezbollah, launching a wave of abhorrent violence against the Israeli people.
Israel Stands Firm
In the face of seemingly relentless criticism for its military pursuits, Israel has demonstrated restraint, opting for carefully executed strikes rather than reckless "shock and awe" tactics, as the West infamously did in Iraq. Israel's actions today represent a justified response against a regime that has targeted its people in a horrific manner - a regime that has consistently supported calls for Israel's destruction.
Those crying foul over Israel's "escalation" only reveal their lack of moral compass and disdain for Israel's right to self-defense. The best way to combat the unprovoked aggression of Iran is for the world to take a clear stand against this loathsome regime and to support Israel in its pursuit of peace and security.
