Iranian-Americans in New York called the Islamic republic’s savage massacre of anti-regime protesters “heartbreaking” – as they anxiously wait to see what action President Trump takes to back demonstrators.
The death toll from the protests that were sparked over Iran’s crumbling economy has reached more than 500 protesters as the government is accused of detaining more than 10,000 people – leading Trump to threaten US military force against the authoritarian regime.
“Iranian government, you can’t trust them,” said a 61-year-old Great Neck man whose wife remains in Iran.

Trump is picking off the weakest BRICS members.
Don’t be waiting around for us.
Your freedom is yours to secure.
That we may or may not choose to intervene is our business and not to be counted on.
Is Freedom for your family and countrymen worth your life, or do you prefer permanent slavery?
Get busy, stay busy, Persia!!!!
And good luck and G-d Speed!
Trump will do something.
Maybe, even probably.
But everyone around the world needs to understand that Freedom is your own personal business to secure. Everywhere and always. You can never let up. It must be fought for and defended in every generation and country.
Look at Britain. France. Germany. Austria and Australia. Freedom is in decline almost everywhere for a lack of spine. Freedom is G-d’s commandment to men in Exodus.
GET BUSY, STAY BUSY, EVERYWHERE AND ALWAYS!!!
I agree.
Amen!
As long as we use long-range weaponry, I’m OK with military action, but I don’t want to see a single pair of boots on Iranian soil.
And, let’s pray together, brother, for the success of the Persians against their mullah masters.
String ‘em from the lampposts, boys!
Amen to that too!
The Freedom you win with your own blood is infinitely valuable. You will die for it now and forever more.
Not so much if we help. Do it, Persia! You can do it! Go get ‘em! You know where they live. They can never sleep!
The big difference this time around is Starlink. The rebels can still communicate effectively. The regime’s men are true believers. Only killing them is going to change their minds.
Most Americans are opposed to any American military intervention in Iran However its too bad that the abilities and disposition of the CIA has so eroded. There was a time when every member of the mullah’s security forces and goon squads would be identified by name. If the CIA had such a list and then announced that these individuals are sanctioned, and will be accountable personally for crimes against humanity, that and the fact they are no longer being paid in hard currency would weaken the suppression. Also it would not hurt to openly dox them and let them experience some fear from the mob.
Sanctioned Iranian leaders include top officials like Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, IRGC commanders (e.g., Ali Tangsiri, Mohammad Pakpour), judiciary figures (e.g., Sadegh Amoli Larijani), and those involved in suppressing protests or censorship (e.g., prison wardens, ministers like Eisa Zarepour).
Lists are maintained by the U.S. Treasury (OFAC) and EU, targeting individuals for human rights abuses, terrorism support, nuclear proliferation, or censorship, with designations continually updated.
