There's a strange frenzy in my head, of birds flying, each particle circulating on its own. Is the one I love everywhere?

As an Iranian, I want to tell our side of the story so that my non-Iranian friends can understand why many Iranian people wanted this war to happen. Yes, there will be casualties, but not more than the 40,000 people who were killed by the IRGC in just two days. My people fought barehanded while being shot in the streets. So for many of us, foreign intervention felt like the only option.

We are not pro-Trump, but if he helps us get rid of this regime, Iranian people will stand by him. If any other country had helped us remove this regime, we would have appreciated that too, but no one did. So I think it’s important to listen to what Iranian people actually want ❤️

Most Iranians currently inside Iran have told their friends and relatives abroad that, God forbid, if they die during this war, the reason is the Islamic Republic, not the USA or Israel. I understand that non-Iranians have the right to feel bad about this war. That’s normal. Wars are scary. I’m worried about my family inside Iran too. But I know many of them are relieved that this is happening, because living under the Islamic Republic has been worse.

Non-Iranians don’t understand what it feels like to live under this brutal regime. For 47 years, they have killed, executed, tortured, and raped Iranian people. It’s time for them to be gone. My people tried to do this on their own. They went to the streets and were met with guns. The result was massacre. So many believe we have no choice but to ask for help from other countries to remove the Islamic Republic so Iran can finally be free, so the blood of the children, men, and women who fought for freedom will not be in vain.

We are not pro-Trump or pro-Israel. If, for example, a country like Finland had said they would help remove this regime and free Iranian people, we would have supported Finland too. This is not about supporting a country. It’s about supporting freedom.

All I’m saying is that non-Iranians should not decide how Iranians should feel when they have not experienced what it’s like to live under this regime. I woke up this morning to the news that Israel attacked. Yes, I was worried for my family and relatives. I am still stressed. But I also know many of them feel hopeful. Whether this turns out positively or negatively, I just hope the casualties are minimal and that we finally get rid of the Islamic Republic and make Iran free again ❤️

proof that dictators are afraid of media and how powerful it is.

Iran's been in absolute blackout for two full weeks, while the government was killing and kidnapping people. more than 20,000 people including minor and adult protesters and other groups of civilians have been killed, many others (at leats 330,000) have been injured, many many others have been shot and (are currently getting) kidnapped.

the Islamic Republic has also attacked and took over many MANY hospitals, beating and killing the wounded, not letting them recieve medical care and threaten them, forcing their families to stay silent. most of these wounded protesters and regular civilians died due to lack of medical care. many of them have been kidnapped in that condition and their situation is currently unknown.

the internet might get cut off in any moment, so BE OUR VOICE. DON'T LET THEM KILL US IN SILENCE.
