TRUE SECURITY BEGINS WITH REGIME CHANGE IN IRAN
As House Resolution 398 (May 06, 2004) has rightly recognized, the illegitimate government of the Islamic Republic of Iran has engaged, and continues to engage, in efforts to acquire nuclear weapons. Such weapons would pose an immediate threat not only to Iran's neigbors, but ultimately to the entire world.
The cruelty of the IRI regime is well known and abundantly documented. The regime has been implicated in assassinations throughout the Middle East, Europe, and the United States; the murder of more than 100,000 Iranians; continuing policies of rape, torture, and arbitrary imprisonment as political tools; and the kidnapping of thousands of women and girls for sale into prostitution and slavery.
According to the Department of State report released by the Department of Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor on February 25, 2004: The Government's poor human rights record worsened, and it continued to commit numerous, serious abuses. The right of citizens to change their government was restricted significantly. Continuing serious abuses included: summary executions; disappearances; torture and other degrading treatment, reportedly including severe punishments such as beheading and flogging; poor prison conditions; arbitrary arrest and detention; lack of habeas corpus or access to counsel and prolonged and incommunicado detention. Citizens often did not receive due process or fair trials. The Government infringed on citizens' privacy rights, and restricted freedom of speech, press, assembly, association and religion. These and other abuses clearly indicate that the regime constitutes a grave threat to the people of Iran and to free people everywhere.
It has come to our attention that Israel and/or the United States may be contemplating a pre-emptive military strike against Iran's nuclear facilities. If the United States follows a policy based exclusively on the nuclear issue, however, the results will be catastrophic both for the Iranian people and, ultimately, for the Middle East and the world. Merely striking at Iranian nuclear facilities would at best delay the regime's nuclear program, driving it deeper underground; would certainly provoke even harsher measures against the Iranian people; and would likely lure the West into a false sense of security with the mullahs of the IRI regime plotting their ultimate retribution against America, Israel, and all others who have stood in their way.
The Islamist regime continues to actively undermine American efforts to rebuild Afghanistan and Iraq. Regime-backed agents and mercenaries are killing American soldiers, sailors, airmen, and Marines every week. To wait until Iraq and Afghanistan are secure before confronting the Iranian mullahs is folly; rather, the United States must take the battle to the enemy in Tehran.
The vast majority of freedom-loving Iranian people support the right of Israel and all of Iran's Middle Eastern neighbors, as well as the United States, to live in peace and security. Therefore, it is in our common interest that:
1. President Bush must support clear and open policy calling for regime change in Iran.
2. The Administration must abandon its policy of Afghanistan yesterday, Iraq today, Iran maybe tomorrow, and confront the threat from the IRI regime immediately.
3. President Bush must deliver an ultimatum to the IRI's primary hidden supporters (Britain) and secondary supporters (France, Germany, EU, Japan, Canada, Russia, and China) to stop giving economic assistance, intelligence assistance, or other assistance to the regime. The EU, in particular, should not use resources stolen from the Iranian people to finance its own failed welfare state.
4. The United States must deliver an unequivocal ultimatum to the Iranian regime to step down peacefully and immediately, and transfer power to a team of Iranian, Iranian-American leaders; this team would set up a referendum under US and international supervision with military presence of US, Sweden, Denmark, and the Netherlands in Iran as the peacekeeper. If the mullahs do not agree to step down peacefully, then the US should provide all necessary financial and military support for freedom-loving Iranian opposition both inside and outside Iran to remove the regime in a short period of time.
The Bush Doctrine advocates America's active role in supporting freedom, democracy, and human rights throughout the world. We call on the Government to act in accord with this wise and noble policy, and help the Iranian people achieve their dream of a free and democratic Iran.
"Human beings are all members of one body.
They are created from the same essence.
When one member is in pain,
The others cannot rest.
If you do not care about the pain of others,
You do not deserve to be called a human being."
A Quote from Famous Persian Poet Saadi Shirazi

- Dear President Bush, I have Iranian friends and I hear from them all how the people in Iran ache to be free from their cruel, repressive regime. Though I live in Seattle, on Thursday I will be outside the Capitol waving a "Sun&Lion" flag, representing a free Iran, brought from Seattle for that purpose. Mr. President, you well know a very dangerous situation is developing in Iran as the mullahs work to acquire nuclear weapons and the ability to deliver them over long distances by missile. In my opinion your actions are long since overdue.

- MR. PRESIDENT , MEMBERS OF CONGRESS AND THE SENATE, THE ISLAMIC REGIME OCCUPING IRAN ARE A TERRORIST GANG . THEY HAVE BEEN KILLING IRANIANS FOR 25 YEARS. THE ISLAMIC REGIME HAS NO MERCY ON ITS OWN, DO NOT EXPECT THEM TO SHOW ANY MERCY ON OTHERS . THE TIME TO ACT IS NOW. THIS REGIM AND ITS THUGS MUST BE FORCED TO DEPART OR EVENTS OF SEPTEMBER 11 WILL BE REPEATED WITH AN ATOMIC BOMB. THIS BOMB WILL EITHER BE BUILT BY THE ISLAMIC REGIME OR WILL BE PURCHASED BY THEM IF NOT ALREADY DONE SO. DO NOT WAIT , OUR SECURITY AND THE WORLDS IS ON YOUR HAND, LETS NOT HAVE A DAY COME AND SAY: WE SHOULD HAVE DONE THIS AND THAT . ACT NOW.
