Weekly Commentary: Hail the Brave Iranian Protestors
Dr. Aaron Lerner
6 February 2026

I'm not going to waste your time speculating about whether the Iranians are really making fools out of President Trump's negotiating team or whether America is playing the fool to buy time to get everything in place for a truly decisive military operation.

I feel compelled, however, to join in praising the brave Iranian protestors who knowingly chose to risk their very lives when they took to the streets to oppose the monstrous Iranian regime.

And the equally brave medical personnel who risked their lives treating wounded protestors.

These brave Iranians continued to be mowed down as they heeded the words of encouragement of President Trump.

At this juncture, as the Iranian regime, as a concession to Mr. Trump, "only" murders the protestors off camera, I can only hope and pray that when we look back at this dark moment in history, it will be within the context of the costly passage to freedom for the Iranian People.
