<p style="font-weight: 400;">In the wake of Saturday night’s Iranian attack on the state of Israel, a viral video emerged of a young female British-Iranian attorney condemning supporters of the despotic, theocratic Iranian regime, the world’s largest state supporter of terrorism.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Elica Le Bon, a British-born, American-educated attorney who has tens of thousands of followers, started by directly addressing her audience and referring to the protests internally against the Iranian government by the Iranian people over the last two years, saying, “It’s become very apparent that you haven’t been listening to anything that we’ve had to say for the past two years. But I was wondering if you could just lend me a few minutes of your time in this ungodly hour to hear us now.”</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">“We’ve had to watch over the past 24 hours people clambering onto the internet to exclaim that Iran has the right to defend itself,” she stated. “In what capacity have you distorted the story to make the Islamic Republic the victim? That’s I think what we’re most curious about. When we were screaming for the past two years that they were lynching us, where were you? When we were screaming that they were killing Iranian women for not wearing a hijab, where were you? When they were lynching Iranian men from cranes for protesting, where were you? When we were explaining that this is a terrorist-occupying force, where were you?”</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">“But all of a sudden, everyone’s graduated from Instagram school of law to say that this is a violation of international law and Iran has the right to defend itself,” she snapped.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Then she turned to the Iranian people themselves, many of whom do not support the regime: “First of all, you’re not talking about Iran; you’re talking about the Islamic Republic. What the Islamic Republic does is not a reflection of the Iranian people. We’ve been clear about what we want, which is peace.”</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">“Second of all, <em>you </em>may have discovered the Middle East yesterday but the Middle East didn’t start existing yesterday,” she continued. “If you want to talk about an act of war, just a few days ago a federal court determined that the attacks on Israeli embassies and Jewish centers in Argentina were conducted by the Islamic Republic and Hezbollah. That was in the ’90s. <em>That was in the ’90s</em>. Was that an act of war?”</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">“How about the terror proxies that the Islamic Republic has created to foster regional instability? What did you think that they were there for? What did you think Hezbollah was there for? Hamas. Houthis, the militia groups in Iraq and Syria: Did you think that they were there to instigate a system of public schooling, education, to feed the poor, house the unhoused? What did you think that they were there for?”</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">“Is that an act of war? Was October 7 an act of war? Are the rockets that Hezbollah fires into Northern Israel on a near-daily basis an act of war? And so when the senior IRGC commanders meet up with Hezbollah in an IRGC military base, okay, not an Iranian embassy, and Israel strikes, your response is to say that that is an act of war?”</p>

<p style="font-weight: 400;">“If you would listen to us for the past two years, much less the past 45 years, you’d know that Iranians don’t want war with Israel,” she declared. “We want peace with Israel. Iranian people inside of Iran have come out and said this over and over and over again. It is <em>you </em>that wants war with Israel. It’s <em>your</em> hatred for Israel and <em>your</em> hatred for Jews that’s pulling us into a war that we didn’t ask for. Have we not suffered enough for the past 45 years that we now have to be used as pawns for your fantasies about war with Israel? Leave us alone. We don’t want that.”</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">“So if you want to support the Islamic Republic in putting Iranians’ lives at risk, and everyone’s lives at risk, they just killed a 10-year old-Bedouin boy for this, is that what you wanted? Then just come out and say that with your whole chest. Say you support the Islamic Republic in their continued aggressions that put everybody’s lives at risk. But don’t say Iran. For two years we asked you to come out and say free Iran and now you want to speak up to put our lives at risk and say go to war, Iran. You are no friend to the Iranian people for that,” she concluded.</p>
