Tomorrow the sun will cross the celestial equator, marking the start of Nowruz (the Persian New Year). For three millennia, this has been the time of Khaneh-tekani (shaking the house), of cleaning away the dust of the old year to make room for hope...to look for the light.
But this year? The only "light" in Iran is the flash of an American-made missile hitting a power plant or the fire from an Israeli strike leveling a neighborhood. While the "liberators" in Washington D.C and Tel Aviv send out their hollow and scripted Nowruz greetings, they are systemically dismantling the very civilization that they claim to support.
You can't let the clinical military jargon fool you. "Operational Success" is a code for state-sponsored murder. They hit a girls' school, and had the nerve to call it a "technical error." That's not a mistake; it's a testament to the absolute disregard for Persian lives.
They target the gas fields and power grids, ensuring that families will sit in the freezing dark on the most sacred night of the year.
They watch from drones while the regime's "Noor Plan" thugs drag protestors into the streets to be brutally executed.
It takes a special kind of evil to escalate a bombing campaign during the nation's New Year. It's a psychological assault designed to break the spirit of 85 million people who are already being suffocated by their own government.
The injustice is so thick you can practically taste it with every incoming headline. You don't "save" people by starving them with sanctions, then blowing up their infrastructure. You don't bring democracy through the barrel of a railgun while ignoring the summary executions happening in the shadows of your own "precision" strikes.
To Trump, to Netanyahu, and to the Mullahs: you are two sides of the same blood-soaked coin. You are all gambling with lives that aren't yours to lose.
If this is your New Years gift, take it back. No one could possibly want "liberation" if it comes wrapped in a shroud.
