JERUSALEM, Israel\u00a0\u2013 After President Trump’s pledge on Tuesday to send help to Iran, the world is watching to see how the White House will respond to the Iranian plea. Some now believe the death toll may be in the tens of thousands.<\/p>\n
The president delivered an encouraging message to the demonstrators, saying, “Keep protesting.\u00a0Take over your institutions if possible.\u00a0And save the names of the killers and abusers that are abusing you.\u00a0You\u2019re being badly abused. And\u00a0I\u2019ve cancelled all meetings with Iranian officials until the senseless killing of protesters stops.\u00a0And all I\u2019m saying is help is on the way.\u201d<\/p>\n
Trump is meeting with his advisors to discuss several options. Some believe that “help” on the way may be a wave of military, cyber, and psychological attacks.<\/p>\n
The goal could be to destroy the military-security infrastructure responsible for killing the protesters and their leaders.<\/p>\n
Iranian-American journalist Lisa Daftari told CBN News, “<\/em>They need the help of the United States to get over the finish line to take this revolution to a place where it will be meaningful, where it will actually topple the regime.\u00a0Again, they don\u2019t have any weapons.\u00a0They don\u2019t have any formal organization on the ground.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n ***Please sign up for\u00a0<\/em>CBN Newsletters\u00a0and download the\u00a0<\/em>CBN News app\u00a0to receive the latest news from a distinctly Christian perspective.***<\/em><\/p>\n While the protesters hope for help, some reports say the regime has killed as many as 20,000 people, and authorities may hang 26-year-old Efran Soltani today for his involvement in the protests.<\/p>\n Iranian Pastor Ara Torosian played a tragic message he received from an Iranian family during an interview with CBN’s\u00a0<\/em>Raj Nair.\u00a0<\/p>\n A woman’s voice on the phone declared, “He said Arish was alone, he (spoke of) a\u00a0shotgun. They start shooting him, and his cousin tried to take him back, but they couldn’t do it. And he went to the hospital, and he died in the (arms) of his father.”<\/p>\n The war within the war is over the Internet. For several days, the regime has shut down the Internet, while Elon Musk’s Starlink is trying to restore service. The Internet allows the protesters to organize, coordinate, and tell the outside world what is happening.\u00a0<\/p>\n The U.S. and at least nine other nations are telling their citizens to get out of Iran immediately, while Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and Oman are warning Trump not to intervene because it will destabilize the oil markets.<\/p>\n The protesters are rallying around Reza Pahlavi, the son of the former Shah of Iran. He has reportedly met with Trump’s Special Envoy Steve Witkoff.<\/p>\n On his Facebook<\/em> page, he encouraged Iranians to continue the fight and promised that those responsible for the massacres would be prosecuted. Pahlavi sent a clarifying message to the Iranian security forces: “You are the national\u00a0military of Iran, not the military of the Islamic Republic. You have a duty to protect the lives of your compatriots. You do not have much time. Join them as soon as possible.\u201d<\/p>\n Pahlavi also addressed the Jerusalem Prayer Breakfast, held at Mar-a-Lago this week.<\/p>\n He told those in attendance, \u201cWe need your prayers more than ever to make sure this does happen.\u00a0 And we will do our part, and I appreciate your solidarity and support.\u00a0Thank you, my friends, and hopefully, we\u2019ll have the next Prayer Breakfast in Tehran, once liberated, and we will welcome you with open arms.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" JERUSALEM, Israel\u00a0\u2013 After President Trump’s pledge on Tuesday to send help to Iran, the world is watching to see how the White House will respond to the Iranian plea.
