Are you Trump?  They ask mockingly: “Who do you think you are, Trump, to decide the future of our country?” At first glance, this question may seem simple, but behind it lie years of experience, bitterness, distrust, and the exhaustion of a nation from the power games of global forces. For many people in Iran, the foreign policies of the United States—regardless of who has been in the White House—have often not been seen as a sign of concern for the people, but rather as part of a larger power game; a game in which the fate of nations sometimes becomes a tool of political pressure. In such an atmosphere, when a politician on the other side of the world speaks about the future of Iran, it is natural that part of society reacts with skepticism, and even ridicule. From the perspective of many Iranians, the fate of a country is not something that can be determined through tweets, speeches, or the decisions of a foreign politician. Iran’s history is full of periods in which its people, ...

  Trump and the Mirror of America America was once a model for the world, a country that symbolized the values of democracy, freedom, and justice, inspiring nations to become better societies. But in the era of Donald Trump, it is no longer that model. Today, America has become little more than Trump himself: hollow, aggressive, cowardly, and devoid of genuine moral leadership. Even experienced men in America, those with courage, wisdom, and character, are forced to bow their heads or remain silent, because the political and social atmosphere has become so narrow and dangerous that freedom of speech and free action are no longer truly possible. Through his actions and decisions, Trump has destroyed everything; no one, whether man or woman, Christian, Muslim, or Jew, is safe anymore. He has ignored boundaries and differences, and with his short-sighted policies, recklessness, and foolish words, he has eroded public trust and social cohesion. A society that once could be a place for ...

War, Power, and the Truth That Cannot Be Hidden Sometimes, history reveals the true face of politicians very late. At first, many people did not know what kind of politician Donald Trump really was. He presented himself as a powerful, decisive man and a defender of security; but over time, many truths became clearer. One of the oldest methods of power politics in the world is to create divisions between states and peoples. When public opinion is consumed by enmity, fear, and wars, few look behind the decisions. In such circumstances, war is not only a crisis but also a tool to cover up mistakes and even political corruption. History has repeatedly shown that some leaders create external crises to maintain power or hide domestic problems. During Trump’s presidency, the Middle East was one of the main stages of this policy. A region that has suffered for decades from war, instability, and power struggles. Sudden decisions, aggressive policies, and escalating tensions caused many people i...

  When We Feel the Pain of Others My heart aches. My eyes are filled with tears, and I feel trapped in a narrow and dark world. Sometimes it feels as if hope for the eternal end of wars is nothing more than an illusion—a dream that people want to believe in, yet the reality of the world has shattered it again and again. War and the killing of the innocent are not new phenomena. Human history is filled with stories in which power has prevailed over humanity and innocent people have become victims. From distant past to the present day, scenes of pain and blood have been repeated countless times; as if humanity has still not managed to pass beyond the dark shadows within itself. Perhaps the bitterest truth is that we humans often do not truly feel suffering until it reaches the door of our own homes. The pain of others remains for us merely a piece of news, an image, or a statistic. We continue our daily lives and accept the world as it is. Human beings are complex creatures; capable ...
