After October 7 and years of war, Iranians and Jews have found a common enemy - opinion

An opinion piece argues that three years after October 7, Iranians and Jews share a common enemy in the Islamic Republic of Iran. The author claims the Hamas attack was orchestrated by Iran, that the jihadist mindset cannot be deterred by rational logic, and that the Islamic Republic must be destroyed. The piece praises Netanyahu's wartime leadership and asserts that Iranians stood with Israel due to a 2,500-year biblical bond.

Three years after the October 7 massacre, an opinion piece by Tina Ghazimorad argues that Iranians and Jews have found a common enemy in the Islamic Republic of Iran. The author contends that Hamas's attack was orchestrated by Iran and that the jihadist mindset operates on theological imperatives of destruction rather than rational cost-benefit logic, making a nuclear-armed Iran an existential threat that cannot be deterred. The piece praises Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's wartime leadership, claiming he has 'flawlessly managed an existential war' and 'fundamentally shattered' Hamas and Hezbollah. It also asserts that Iranians stood firmly alongside Jews after October 7, citing a 2,500-year biblical bond dating back to Cyrus the Great. The author criticizes Western media for selective justice, contrasting obsessive scrutiny of Israel's defensive measures with silence during the 'catastrophic slaughter of 50,000 Iranians' in January 2026. The article concludes that Netanyahu must be given time and support to 'finish the job' and permanently liberate Israel.
