  • Unlike Iran's regime, the country's people are overwhelmingly pro-American and pro-Jewish -- sentiments rooted in a historical alliance that made Iran the closest ally of both Israel and the United States before the mullahs came to power. The regime's anti-American and antisemitic stance is an affront to the true nature of its citizens, who yearn for peace and global partnership.

  • Without the oppressive ruling mullahs, Iran could once again be a force for good, both domestically and globally. Freed from their brutal rulers, the Iranian people could channel their immense talent and potential into rebuilding their nation as a thriving hub of innovation, culture and prosperity.

The mullahs seized control, installing a theocratic Islamist regime that has since ruled with an iron fist — arguably one of history's most brutal and oppressive reigns. The proud heritage of a nation that once symbolized enlightenment and progress has been overshadowed by a reign marked by suppression, regression and fear.
