Conference on Iran: Making the case for a different
path for Iran citizens
By
Ken Blackwell
Over
622,000 Syrian refugees languish in squalid conditions just across the border
from the homeland in Jordan. They have
almost nothing, they lack the most basic of possessions, they have no
opportunity to work, and their futures have been robbed of them. What they do have is time – time to think
about what drove their country into madness.
While
Syrian refugees are stuck, Iranian troops are on the move, 15,000 more to Syria
to join the fighting against IS. After
IS’s well-publicized destruction of artifacts, torture, and mass executions,
some might even be rooting for Iran and its proxy, the Assad regime. But how can we root for a regime that
tortured and killed indiscriminately and whose policies directly fueled the
rise of IS?
