Historic Free Iran March in Nation’s Capital Given a BOOST by Treasury Secretary
UPDATE: TRUMP Pledges Nuclear Deal with Iran and Contrasts EVIL of Mullahs with ‘Great People’ of Iran
The day before thousands of Iranians will descend on the U.S. Capitol and March to the White House to call for the overthrow of the Iranian Mullahs, Donald Trump’s Treasury Secretary, Scott Bessent is adding fuel to fire of freedom. Just two days before the scheduled march, Secretary Scott Bessent said that he is implementing the Trump strategy of using ‘maximum pressure’ on Iran and to “collapse its already buckling economy”.
The U.S. is going to do this through sanctions for “immediate maximum impact” by restricting Iran’s oil exports. An already weakening tyrannical regime is on the brink of collapsing already and this is only expected to facilitate the process.
Adding to this explosive development is that on Saturday, March 8th, thousands of Iranians who support the overthrow of the Iranian regime are marching from the U.S. Capitol to the White House to demand freedom from the mullahs after nearly five decades of tyrannical repression and persecution.
The timeliness of Bessent’s comments is only expected to magnify the attention given to the march.
With the March 8 “Free Iran” rally in Washington, D.C., now is the time for an urgent discussion on Iran’s future, America’s role, and what comes next.
Book Alireza Jafarzadeh for an interview to break down the truth behind Iran’s crisis, Trump’s success, and what this means for the future of the Middle East.
