Considered one of the most tragic contemporary events, seemingly the international community is about to see the Iranian regime\u2019s hands behind this event. While calls to counter the \u201chead of the snake\u201d in Tehran have increased, the question is why and how it should be dealt with.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Since its foundation, the Iranian regime has found salvation in exporting internal crises abroad. Facing a restive and vibrant society, Iran\u2019s religious fascism has been orchestrating wars and funding terrorist groups. The regime\u2019s founder, Ruhollah Khomeini, provoked and dragged his feet with the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/news\/iran-resistance\/irans-regime-a-major-obstacle-in-the-way-of-longstanding-peace-in-the-middle-east\/\">Iran-Iraq war<\/a> for eight years, using it as a cover to oppress society. He sent millions to the front lines, while his commanders used hundreds of thousands of teenagers and youth as canon fodder and human waves. Using the momentum, Khomeini\u2019s henchmen sent tens of thousands of dissidents to the gallows. Therefore, it is safe to say that the bloodthirsty tyrant destroyed or at least crippled a generation.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In reaction, the Iranian Resistance repeatedly called out the regime\u2019s warmongering. It was <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/massoud-rajavi\/\">Massoud Rajavi<\/a>, the Iranian Resistance\u2019s leader who first called this regime \u201cthe head of the snake.\u201d And Mrs. Maryam Rajavi, the president-elect of the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI) warned the international community soon after the Second Gulf War that Tehran\u2019s danger of terrorism is far more devastating than its nuclear weapons project.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It seems that following Tehran and its proxies\u2019 actions in recent months, especially Houthis in Yemen damaging the maritime flow and commerce in the Red Sea, the international community is leaning toward dealing with \u201cthe head of the snake.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Meanwhile, some <a href=\"https:\/\/www.semafor.com\/article\/09\/25\/2023\/inside-irans-influence-operation\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">so-called \u201cexperts\u201d<\/a> and regime apologists claim targeting the regime can increase the tensions in the Middle East.\u00a0 Those promoting this false notion try to illustrate the regime as a regional power, which is far from reality.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Why Firmness Will Prevent War with <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Iran?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Iran<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/FldhbJpZ3X\">pic.twitter.com\/FldhbJpZ3X<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; NCRI-FAC (@iran_policy) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/iran_policy\/status\/1775537865406992727?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">April 3, 2024<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Rattled with several uprisings, the Iranian regime faces a vibrant and restive society. In addition, the ruling theocracy has to deal with the growing threat of an organized opposition within Iran that has kept the fire of resistance ablaze despite systematic oppression.\u00a0 Iran\u2019s economy is in ruins, and state media keep warning about society\u2019s reaction to the record-high inflation, unemployment, and misery index.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">But does firmly dealing with the head of the snake in Iran mean war?<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">First, Western governments have proven they are more for a costless approach toward the regime. Four decades of appeasement toward the regime and believing in the myth of moderation are testaments to this fact.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">There have been several operations against the Iranian regime\u2019s interests and proxies in neighboring countries, but they were too late and limited and should have happened sooner.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">For decades, the Iranian Resistance and people have called for regime change, considering it the only option to effectively <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/news\/iran-resistance\/an-overview-of-irans-history-of-hostage-taking-and-how-western-appeasement-has-fueled-tehrans-terrorism\/\">curb terrorism globally<\/a>.
