Nournews: Benjamin Netanyahu, one of the world’s most ruthless and bloodstained figures, has sent a message to the people of Iran with a calm face and a language laced with words such as “freedom” and “liberation.” Yet amid a rain of bombs, his message amounts to nothing more than political hypocrisy and naked aggression. The very man who for years has sheltered behind crises of corruption, social fragmentation, and protests by his own citizens against a corrupt and extremist rule now attempts to present himself as the savior of the Iranian nation.
When the killer wears the clothes of a savior
Netanyahu knows well how to use the rhetoric of liberation to legitimize crime. Every time a missile lands on civilians, he calls it “a step toward freedom.” This is the same old formula of aggressive empires: spill blood and then smile and say it was for democracy and freedom. From Vietnam to Baghdad, from Gaza to Tehran, the formula is the same—washing away the stains of blood with the slogan of freedom.
In his message, Netanyahu calls on the Iranian people to “take action,” while at the same time targeting the country’s energy infrastructure, hospitals, and roads. He shouts his demand from the ashes of destruction. Yet no nation has ever received its freedom from the mouth of an aggressor who burns its land. Speaking of freedom amid the sound of sirens and missiles resembles mockery more than an invitation.
If this historic war is truly for freedom, why are the citizens of Gaza still under siege? Why, for decades, has “freedom” in the occupied territories been defined through military rule? The contradiction in Netanyahu’s narrative is clear: he speaks of freedom, yet seeks it only for his allies—and only as long as they align with the interests of Tel Aviv.
The hidden objective: a weak Iran, not a free Iran
Behind the slogans lies the real goal: breaking Iran’s national structure, fragmenting its regional power, and returning it to a semi-colonial condition under the umbrella of Washington and Tel Aviv’s influence. His war is not for the freedom of the Iranian people but for domination over Iran’s future—a future stripped of power, independence, and regional voice.
Netanyahu knows well that democracy cannot be spoken of under bombardment. He uses words as his second weapon—one that may be more dangerous than bombs, because it targets minds. And this is where the responsibility of global media and intellectuals begins: to expose the true face of this crime, rather than repeat the propaganda lines of a government that washes blood in the language of freedom.
Netanyahu’s message is not truly a message to the Iranian people; it is the official declaration of a historical lie—an attempt to cleanse aggression with seemingly moral and liberating rhetoric. Freedom is never born from the barrel of a cannon; what emerges from it is only the ashes of truth falling upon the lifeless bodies of innocent people.
