The realities of Iranian life are far more harrowing than most
people imagine from the outside. Ganji paints a portrait of
duplicitous clerics arbitrarily arresting, torturing, mutilating,
and executing citizens, all in the name of Islamic Justice. A
system of apartheid has been instituted against women. While 60% of
the population lives below the poverty line, the mullah regime has
hoarded billions of dollars in accounts and properties in Europe,
Canada, and Japan. Roughly 70% of the population is under 30 years
of age and opposes the regime. In the year of 2001 alone, 220,000
people--mostly educated youth--left the country in search of better
lives. Ganji stresses that the best defense against terrorism is
offense, and that the United States can and must establish a
proactive policy of helping Iranians struggling for the freedom of
Iran, in and out of the country.
Western policies toward the Iranian mullah regime have thus far
been reactionary rather than proactive. The regime in Iran has been
an incubator of international terrorism, aiding and abetting
international terrorist groups in and out of the Middle East. The
author argues that now is the time for the United States to
substitute rhetoric with action in policies toward the ruling
clerics in Iran.
