"The Iranian people who took to the streets in recent years did not call for one form of domination to replace another. They demanded an end to oppression in all its forms, not the beginning of a new round under the Western thumb."
"Those who claim that one can rain fire on the body of Iran in the name of striking the Islamic Republic while imagining that the people will remain unharmed either do not understand the reality of war or deliberately choose to ignore it."
"Life does not flourish in the shadow of oppression. Nor does it grow beneath the rubble of bombs."
"From the 1948 Nakba (catastrophe) to the current Ibadah (destruction), we have felt the pain of genocide for many generations."
The Iranian people's desire for freedom and dignity is complicated by a history of Western imperialism. They seek an end to all forms of oppression, not a replacement of one domination with another. The West's promises of freedom are often unfulfilled, driven by a desire for control rather than genuine liberation. Mohamad Maljoo's warning emphasizes the indiscriminate nature of war, highlighting that destruction affects all, not just the targeted regime. This sentiment resonates with Palestinians who share a history of suffering and oppression, reinforcing solidarity among oppressed peoples.
