مرگ بر آمریکا

سپاه پاسداران انقلاب اسلامی
In 1890, British colonialism forced the Shah of Iran to sign the Tobacco Régie (Tobacco Concession), giving a British company called "Talbot" full control over buying and selling tobacco in the country.

The people strongly opposed this because it hurt local businesses and gave England too much power.

Then, a famous religious leader, Mirza Shirazi, issued a fatwa saying tobacco use was forbidden.

Almost everyone, including the Shah's own household, stopped smoking.

The Shah had to cancel the deal.

This is how a religious Leader saved the people from British colonialism.

Today is the anniversary of the historic fatwa banning tobacco, issued in 1891.

Tim Kaine just did something almost extinct in American politics: He added historical memory back into the conversation.

1953:The US and UK helped overthrow Iran’s democratically elected government after it threatened Western oil profits.

Then came:

• The Shah
• SAVAK torture and repression
• The Revolution
• The Iran-Iraq War
• US backing of Saddam
• Flight 655
• Decades of sanctions, proxy wars, strikes, and escalation

Washington often talks about Iran like history began yesterday. Kaine’s point is that cause and effect still exist, even when evil empires pretend they don’t.

If endless escalation were the answer, we’d already be living in peace.

Instead, we’re standing in the rubble of 70 years of hostility pretending more fire will somehow fix the burn.
