John,

Yesterday, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu issued another ominous "message to the Iranian people" as his government prepares for possible military strikes on Iran.

Anyone who thinks Netanyahu will deliver freedom and democracy to Iran should take a closer look at how he has killed tens of thousands of civilians in Palestine and Lebanon, and injured and displaced millions.

We are in another historic moment for our anti-war efforts and we need your urgent support. Please consider a contribution today to fuel our efforts to help end this deadly war in the Middle East and prevent it from expanding to Iran. DONATE: No War with Iran

  • Israeli officials say they are ready to attack Iran. The Israeli military says it has achieved near-total air superiority in Syria, eliminating over 85% of Syrian air defense systems, and they have a free hand for massive attacks inside Iran. (1) 

  • Some voices around Trump are pushing for restraint but the pro-war faction appears better organized and must be stopped.

  • Neocons in the Trump team are forming a plan for military escalation with Iran, including sending U.S. troops and resources for the U.S. to confront Iran directly. (2) 

A U.S.-backed war with Iran would not only devastate the people of Iran, U.S. troops, and the broader region but also lead to disastrous consequences for Iranian Americans — including increased surveillance, discrimination, and restrictions on civil liberties.

The stakes couldn’t be higher and we cannot afford inaction. Decisions being made in the coming days and weeks in Washington will shape the trajectory of U.S.-Iran relations for years to come — and have a tremendous impact on the next generation of Iranians as well as Iranian Americans.

Please donate now to fuel NIAC's efforts in the fight for peace and diplomacy over war. Together, we can ensure that the incoming administration chooses a path of de-escalation and ending war rather than starting a new one.

This moment requires all of us. With your help, we can ensure that war with Iran is not the story of 2025.

In solidarity,

President, NIAC

P.S. In case you missed it, see our public letter to Congressman Jeff Van Drew urging he retract his for false and dangerous claim that Iran sent a “mothership” deploying drones in New Jersey — false claims like this feed public hysteria and lead to wars.
