The most significant difference separating the Iranian people from the people of other Middle Eastern countries became apparent with the recent war. In Iraq, Libya, Syria, Egypt, and other countries, people believed the USA would bring democracy to their countries. Therefore, they applauded and aided the US army, only to be left to their fate, their countries divided, and themselves forced to migrate.
The Iranian people did not fall for this game played by the USA and Trump. Instead of believing Trump, who promised to “liberate you from the mullah regime,” and instead of facilitating the USA’s work, Iranians realized that this would bring disaster to their country and abandoned their alliance with the USA and Israel. When Trump failed to achieve his desired goal, he began calling the Iranian people, whom he had previously flattered as “noble and honorable,” “terrorists.” This is because the Iranian people did not believe the USA’s lie about democracy and did not allow Israel and the USA to use them.
The Kurds in the region also understood this! They know best that the USA only used them and then discarded them. They, too, did not fall for Trump’s manipulation. The US knows better than anyone that problems will only get worse if they withdraw from the region tomorrow.
Trump, on the other hand, used his latest absurdity against the Iranian people. Previously, Trump said he would liberate the Iranian people from the mullah regime, and therefore the people should support him. When the people did the opposite, he started calling the Iranian people “terrorists.”
Does the American people deserve such a person as president? Yes, unfortunately they do.
