Living here in Accra, I have learned to respect the Ghanaian spirit. You do not take your freedom for granted. You understand that a “Republic” is more than just a title on a map. It means you are ruled by laws and votes, not by bloodlines or colonial masters.
That is why I am writing to you today. When you see news from my home country, Iran, you see headlines about “protests.” But the reality is darker. To understand the chaos in our streets, we cannot just look at the last few weeks. We have to look back to June 2025.
The Betrayal and The Unity of June 2025
The world knows what happened. We were at the negotiating table, talking peace. While our diplomats spoke, American and Israeli forces launched a surprise attack on our nuclear industries. They forced a 12-Day War upon us.
This wasn’t a fair fight; it was a slaughter. Over 1,200 innocent Iranians died. They targeted our senior military commanders and our nuclear scientists and attempted to assassinate our President and government leaders. Their goal was clear: total decapitation of the state to force a regime change.
They made a critical miscalculation. They believed their bombs would break our spine and turn the people against the state. They expected us to fracture.
They were wrong. Contrary to American and Israeli expectations, the attacks did not divide us. In fact, the opposite happened. The external threat acted as a glue. For those twelve days, political differences vanished. Iranians from all walks of life stood more united than ever before. We realized that our survival depended on each other, not on foreign promises. By the twelfth day, it was the aggressors who had to ask for a ceasefire, because they were getting smashed by our rains of missiles. The military option failed, so they changed their tactics. Several months later, they moved the war from the skies to our city squares.
A “Prince” for a Republic?
The West claims to support democracy in Iran, yet look at who they support. Their chosen figurehead is the son of the deposed Shah.
They are trying to sell a “Prince” as the savior of a Republic. This is absurd. It insults the very concept of democracy that Ghana cherishes. The Pahlavi dynasty was a dark era of absolute dictatorship and secret police. The Iranian people didn’t overthrow a monarchy just to have London and Washington reinstall the son on the throne forty years later. It seems the West loves democracy for themselves, but for the Middle East (or maybe for every other nation), they prefer an obedient King.
Terror Disguised as Protest
Let’s be honest about what is happening now. The state respects genuine protesters who suffer from economic hardships. Their voices need to be heard, as they have been in recent weeks.Their voices matter. But the mercenery rioters we see today among the real potesters are not asking for bread. They are executing a mission.
Burning ambulances is not a protest. Shooting a three-year-old girl or burning a nurse alive inside a hospital is not civil disobedience. These are acts of savagery. Rioters have torched over 50 mosques and dozens of government offices. This is terror, plain and simple.
The Mossad and certain US officials have publicly confirmed that they directly supplied the weapons and tactics used by these groups. They are exploiting the peaceful nature of our people to serve an outside agenda.
The Colonial Playbook
Does this sound familiar? It should. Look at Venezuela just days ago. The US did military intervention and kidnapped their legitimate president because the country refused to bow down. Now, they are using the same script for other countries, invluding Iran. They arm a violent few to punish the independent many. Even the President of the United States has gone so far as to threaten Iran with a military strike should it take action against this brutality.
I write this because I know Ghanaians have a sharp memory for colonial tricks. You know that sovereignty is not given; it is defended. We withstood the bombardment of June, and our unity will help us withstand this attempt to drag us back into the dark ages. We choose the difficult path of independence over the easy path of submission. I believe the people of Ghana understand exactly why.
