For decades, U.S. imperialism has sought to dominate West Asia through coups, sanctions, military bases, and proxy wars, all under the banner of "freedom" or "democracy," but the real aim has always been the suppression of independent development and control of oil, trade routes, and the political future of the region. Today's talk of regime change or "nuclear security" is not about liberation, but about maintaining imperial domination.

Rep. Greg Landsman claims Iran poses an "existential threat" and that "diplomacy has been given every opportunity." Normally, we would demand accountability from our elected officials, but Landsman has made clear, time and again, that he does not serve his constituents. Instead, we call on the people to abandon Landsman, who continues to stand with empire, apartheid, and unending war.
