In Support of Protests in Tehran

January 9, 2026
From my home in San Francisco,
I see videos of protestors in Tehran
striving to topple the regime.
This is a dangerous game!
The West – specifically the USA – can help
protestors with covert action;
But ultimately the Iranian people must change their government.
History of US intervention in Iran is too complicated
for the US to do the final change;
Iranian protestors must figure this out.
This is difficult because the Iranian government is lethal;
They jail, kill, and tortue people.
Iran has a very impressive culture and history.
It is unclear when they will be free
of the repressive theocratic government.
Iran's regime has been crushing the human spirit for decades;
I wish the Iranian protestors well.
