Actually I would argue that America needs to take a page out of Saudi Arabia's playbook and learn a thing or two about how one deals with radicalism. The Kingdom did rather well in forcing obscurantism to retreat and it is about time we call for help.
I don't see much outrage over the death of Armita Garavand who was savagely beaten by the Islamic regime ... where is your condemnation and anger for the innocent, or do you reserve your 'righteousness' to defend terrorists when they slay Jews?

Iran is exporting its ideology to the region exploiting children to change the religious map of the Middle East - such threat to stability needs to be opposed and communities protected
Anyone picked up on the fact that the Iranian regime is setting up Yemen for a massacre? That the mullahs are exploiting Yemenis like Hamas does the Palestinians, sending a country devastated by famine & war to direct confrontation with military superpowers! Anyone?

The quiet yet audacious draping of Western monuments in flags emblematic of Palestinian nationalism or, more disquietingly, the black standards of Jihad, is a visual spectacle redolent with historical echo.

Note to Arab countries - your people's blood is being traded by the Mullahs of Iran so that THEY could gain more power and territories to their madness - Palestinians, Yemenis, Syrians, Iraqis. Wake up, this war is really against the Arab World by Iran's Mullahs.

was murdered by the morality police for not wearing her headscarf properly. Such abuse of power towards women - nevermind the infringement on their religious freedom, is unacceptable. Nations cannot continue to look the other as the regime commits the abominable!
Two British-Iranian journalists working in the United Kingdom have been warned by police of a “credible” plot by Iran to kill them, according to London-based news channel Iran International. which means IRGC operates in the UK anyone else has an issue with that?
Side note: this woman not only kicks a$$ but damn she can dress too! Iranian women are not to be trifled with :) lots of love to you ladies! Say it proud and say it loud, heels and all
We, the British Iranians and the people of Iran along with the rest of the diaspora stand with the people of Israel and we condemn all terroristic attacks on civilians we condemn Hamas and we condemn the anti-somatic behaviour that we are witnessing en masse in The West.

By instigating and fueling regional conflicts, Tehran ensures the Arab world remains embroiled in internal strife and reactionary politics.
