Where is the Outrage on Iran?

This we can say for certain: the No Labels community stands with the brave Iranian people demanding a better future. To stand in solidarity with them does not require endorsing a specific military or other action against the Iranian regime, which was being discussed in the White House and across Washington this week.

It just requires you to embrace the long bipartisan tradition of Americans supporting?people around the world seeking freedom or fleeing dictatorship.?That was certainly the worldview of the late No Labels founding chairman Senator Joe Lieberman, and it remains the view of No Labels today.

As No Labels did with Venezuela last week, our policy team is working to help our members understand the unfolding crisis in Iran from many different angles, and I want to share their excellent work here.

Here are primers on:

• How Iran’s inflation and collapsing currency sparked the largest protests in Iran since the 1979 revolution.
• How Iran’s multi-layered security apparatus ruthlessly shuts down protests and protects the Islamic regime led by Ayatollah Khamenei.?
• The origins of the Iranian regime’s “Death to America” chants and how it is used to distract from their own failures.?
• How the War Powers Act has been politicized under both Democratic and Republican presidents.?

The Iran crisis has profound implications for the future of the Middle East and, most importantly, for the safety and security of the American people. As events unfold, we hope you will keep coming to No Labels for unbiased information and insights that reflect the voice of America’s commonsense majority.
