Daughter of Executed Hostage: Iran's Regime is Not Iranian

Father's Targeted Execution

• 💡 Jazelle Sharmahd's father, a German-American software engineer, was abducted in Dubai and executed in Iran after creating a website for Iranians to communicate freely.
• 🎯 He was targeted because his work exposed the Islamic regime as an occupying force, not a legitimate Iranian government.
• 💔 His remains are still in Berlin, and the family is seeking U.S. administration help to bring him home, noting he was left behind during a 2023 hostage deal.

The Nature of the Iranian Regime

• 🗣️ Jazelle asserts that the Ayatollah regime is not Iranian, but an occupation by Arab Islamists who have sought to destroy Iranians since day one.
• 📈 Despite the regime's attempts to suppress dissent, Jazelle believes the Iranian people will rise up, as they have historically.
• ⚠️ The key concern is whether Western governments will continue to support the regime through deals, rather than supporting the people of Iran.

Uprisings and Regime Weakness

• ✊ The recent mass protests, sparked by the death of a young woman for improper veiling, demonstrate the regime's weakness and fear.
• 🩸 The speaker acknowledges that overthrowing such a regime will involve bloodshed, comparing it to the downfall of genocidal ideologies like Nazism or Communism.
