In this Gatestone Institute article, Amir Taheri argues that a truce with Iran would not end the regime’s long-running wars, but merely pause or redirect them.
- Taheri frames a truce as something stronger than a ceasefire but weaker than a peace accord, warning that it “mothballs” war rather than ending it.
- The article argues that even if Washington and Tehran reach a truce, Israel may not be bound by it, especially if Israel did not consent to the arrangement.
- Taheri says Iran has already signaled it intends to continue its war against Israel through Hezbollah, including by directing released frozen assets toward the Lebanese terror group.
- The piece claims Iran’s attacks in the region have often struck civilian structures rather than actual U.S. or Israeli military targets.
- Taheri describes Iran’s closure of the Strait of Hormuz as an act of war against the broader international community, not merely against America or Israel.
- He argues that Iran’s revolutionary regime has moved from one conflict to another since 1979, including internal purges, wars against minorities and dissidents, the Iran-Iraq War, and proxy conflicts abroad.
- The article contends that Iran’s wars will not truly end unless the country breaks from Khomeinism and chooses a fundamentally different political direction.
- Taheri concludes that a regime unable to make peace with its own people is unlikely to make lasting peace with anyone else.
