During a debate on Piers Morgan Uncensored today, it became abundantly clear to me that some of the biggest cheerleaders in favor of a war against Iran have never bothered to think about whether that war would actually result in what they want. Now, in the case of the Persian or Iranian diaspora, you know, they don't really appear to care much about military strategy and whether or not regime change can be achieved militarily. And nothing made that clearer to me than what Elika Labon said on Piers Morgan show today. Let's take a look. The worst case scenario is that this war ends and the regime is still in power. That's worse than if the war never happened at all. And so, in terms of what I'm here to do or what Goldie is here to do is represent, you know, the sentiments of the Iranian people and how we feel about what these military strikes are doing, which are targeting an an oppressive regime that, you know, has been we all know has been oppressing the Iranian people for 47 years. In terms of the military strategy, that's not really within our purview. The only thing that we've ever asked is for this war to go to completion and for this regime to be removed. It was never in our imagination that that, you know, you would stop at the point that you know, their nuclear capabi- capabilities were decapitated. We were told that the end of this war would be when this regime fell. Wait, military strategy is not in your purview. And also, Elika Labon speaking on behalf of the entire Iranian population is rich considering she's never lived there. She has no real stakes there. Are you doing interviews on the ground? Like, what are you referring to when you're speaking on behalf of the Iranian population? Same with Goldie. She's a disbarred lawyer from Canada. So, I would never, in a million years, come on this show and speak on behalf of the Armenian population in Armenia. I don't live there. And I don't represent the population of Armenia. And more importantly, I would do pretty much anything before advocating for the United States to bomb the crap out of Armenia. But, you know, when it comes to the Persian diaspora, at least the ones that were cheerleading for this war, they shamelessly begged our government and military to bomb the crap out of Iran. Now, let's go back to the whole notion of a military strategy is not in our purview. Oh, it's not? Well, I called her out on that. Let's take a look. There was no strategic military plan in place. Elika is on the propaganda wing and she's like, oh, I don't know it's not my job to think about the military strategy. No, Elika, it is your job to think about military strategy because you're advocating for something that's going to get American soldiers killed. It's going to get innocent civilians killed. In fact, that's happening right now as we speak. And so, you should ask yourself, is there really a reliable path here, a militaristic path that's going to secure what I personally want, which is regime change? And honestly, there isn't a path. It is important to ask yourself as you're advocating for military action whether or not that military action is going to secure the gains that you're advocating for. And if you looked at the landscape, if you looked at the terrain in Iran, if you looked at what Iran is capable of doing, the fact that they control the Strait of Hormuz, you would think about all these elements before spouting off about getting the United States involved in a war that isn't going to secure what you think it's going to secure. There isn't going to be regime change in Iran. And by the way, I think it's disgusting that we are dragged into a war on behalf of a foreign country that does not plan to put any of their boots on the ground. I mean, it's just it really is amazing to me because if you're just a propagandist and you don't really care about the fate of the civilians on the ground in Iran, yeah, you just spout your propaganda cheerleading for the United States. By the way, Elika was I I believe born and raised in the UK. I think she's living in LA now. But like, who the hell are you as a foreigner to tell the American people that they must they must go to war with Iran, by the way, on behalf of Israel at the end of the day. Like, do you guys understand how sick this whole thing is? And to say like, oh, I just advocate for it. I don't have to think about how it would play out. That's none of my purview. Total clownish behavior. Total clownish behavior. Now, I don't want Elika to be a representative of First of all, she certainly isn't representative of the entire Iranian population in Iran. But she's also not representative of the diaspora because just recently a poll came out. I want to read this poll to you. I referenced it earlier on the main show. I wanted to do it again, but with some more specifics. So, a recent poll came out by the What's the name of the organization? I want to cite them appropriately. The National Iranian American Council, NIAC. And their poll found that among Iranian Americans, 66.1% oppose the war. 32.7% support, 1.2% prefer not to answer not to answer. So, she's not even representative of the diaspora. I don't know why she has these views, why she is spouting these views and this propaganda without even really having a plan or an idea of how this war would play out, but she just knows that she's going to cheerlead it and you know, play victim whenever someone pushes back on her. But I want to get to one other part of this appearance. Because later Piers Morgan, and I knew he was going to do this, tried to challenge me on rejecting, and I do reject, at least for the time being, that 30,000 Iranians were killed by the IRGC during the protests that took place in January. I don't buy that number. The reason why I don't buy that number isn't because I deny that protesters were killed. I don't buy that number because there is no solid evidence to prove it. And if someone shows me solid evidence, I will accept it. Why would I deny a death toll if there is sound, credible evidence to back it up? But nonetheless, I want to go to this video and then I'll give you some of the details of the research that I found. There's no evidence that 30,000 people were killed. Show me the evidence. I will admit that I'm wrong. WHERE'S THE EVIDENCE, ELIKA? WHAT'S THE SOURCE? YEAH, GO AHEAD. I can tell you the source because how quickly you believe a terrorist regime, but you don't believe action. I'm going to tell you right now. What's the source? I'M GOING TO TELL YOU RIGHT NOW. SILENCE. And I'm going to tell you every single hospital in every single city in Iran gave a tally of how many corpses were in their beds. In total, that amounted to 36,500 people and that didn't include the ones that were shot by police. What source compiled those numbers? The hospitals. >> Okay, so you yourself talked to every single hospital? I saw the list. I saw the list of every hospital with every number. [laughter] Who published the list? Who published the list? >> Human rights organization. You should know the source. You should memorize that. I looked for the list. She said that there was a list with names, right? I looked for the list. Where's the list? I did find this though. This is from a January 25th, 2026 article from Time magazine. The 30,000 figure is far beyond tallies being compiled by activists methodically assigning names to the dead. As of Saturday, the US-based human rights activist news agency said it had confirmed 5,459 deaths. They were investigating additional deaths. But how do you go from that number to 30,000? Why do they intend they do this every single time? They totally discount what Mike Pompeo said on the record about Mossad on the ground to agitate. Israeli media did the same thing. Why do they discount that? Why do they discount the fact that Mossad was on the ground agitating, that there were armed individuals shooting and killing security and police? In fact, this has been confirmed. I want to make sure I get to this as well. Give me 1 second. So, 200 police officers were confirmed killed by the same organization I referred to earlier, the human rights activist news agency. So, are you telling me that the police officers killed themselves? And remember, the protests were going on for some time and then suddenly a a switch flipped and suddenly you have all these armed people opening fire. Was that Mossad? How many of the people killed were killed by Mossad or individuals armed by Mossad versus, you know, members of the IRGC, the government. You're going to talk to me about a list, and then you can't tell me who compiled the list? That's interesting. And more importantly, any concerns about the Iranians who are dying now? Cuz there are a lot of Iranian civilians who are losing their homes and getting killed right now based on what Elika wants. And I call that out to take a look. You know what's dishonest, Piers? The fact that Iranians are getting KILLED RIGHT NOW. CIVILIANS are getting targeted right now. This war began, okay, with a hundred What How many hundred seventy-five people getting slaughtered at an elementary school? Elika, you got anything to say about that? Do your people feel liberated? You don't live in Iran. You've never lived in Iran. And you have the audacity to talk about this as if it's the liberation [laughter] of the Iranian people as their hospitals are being bombed, as their hospitals are being bombed, as healthcare workers are being killed. She went on, by the way, after that elementary school in Manbij was bombed and a hundred seventy-five people, many of whom were little kids, were slaughtered. You want to know the first thing Elika did? She tried to claim that the IRGC did that. That they bombed their own elementary school in Manbij. And in the context of this debate, she tried to further add confusion about who was responsible for it. By the way, it was the United States were the ones with the Tomahawk missiles. We did that. And the Trump administration has still refused to take accountability and apologize for that grotesque, horrendous, embarrassing, shameful war crime. But in the context of this debate, she was like, "Oh, you know, I just, you know, the I thought I I find it so interesting that you don't want to believe the people on the ground and instead are just believing what the regime says." I I'm not trusting the regime. I'm trusting what investigations following that attack on that elementary school indicate. And then she went on to deny the death toll in Gaza, of course. Of course. These people are so loathsome. And to try to make it seem like I don't care about Iranian lives. I wanted to prevent this war from happening. Who knows what the final tally of lives lost will be. But if you ever allowed yourself to be fooled by the likes of these lip injection filled women who are trying to tell you that the Iranian people wanted this because they want to be liberated. Do they look liberated to you? And yeah, that was a low blow. That was a low blow. Yeah, I shouldn't comment on her lip filler. I shouldn't. But I did. And yeah, I get real heated during these debates. But wouldn't you? When people are lying to your face and pretending like they care about human lives when in reality they're advocating for something that gets more innocent people killed. And then they have the audacity to claim that you don't care about human lives. Just because you're not going to believe a number of 30,000 that hasn't been proven and has no credible citation. Yeah, I don't just buy propaganda. I don't just believe propaganda. I'm a human. I'm flawed. I've been naive at times, and I've fallen for things. Sure, certainly. But as I've done this more and more in my life, I want to see the evidence for myself, and I'm not just going to believe [snorts] any propaganda simply because I'll be shamed by Piers Morgan on his show that I don't just buy that 30,000 people were killed by the IRGC. I know better than that. And Piers does this like false equivalency thing of like, "Well, you believe the death toll in Gaza, but you don't believe it in Iran." Yeah, because in Gaza, I can rely on a source that's been historically credible when it comes to death toll numbers. And yeah, that's the Gaza Health Ministry. The Hamas-controlled Gaza Health Ministry has been incredibly accurate with death toll numbers. And in fact, the death toll in Gaza ended up getting confirmed by the IDF. When it comes to Iran, I haven't seen a credible source cite that 30,000 people were slaughtered. So that's where I am on this issue. I would have prevented the war. I would have done the opposite of what Elika and that disgraceful person, Goldie, have been doing. And it is shocking to me that they've seen everything that has gone down in Iran over the last five weeks, and they're still cheerleading it. While the rest of us are paying higher gas prices, while other countries are rationing gas and oil and all of that and energy. I'm curious. Elika seems unbothered. Who's paying your bills? Very curious about that. Anyway, Have you been there? Sorry, I got I got heated cuz I just These vampires, man. These disgusting, duplicitos, propaganda propaganda vampires. Like I can't I just can't stand it. I'm sick of seeing human lives lost to this treachery. Okay, it's just it Anyway, let me try to calm down. And by the way, one other thing. When I see the comments about like, "Oh, Anna is raising her voice." Here's what I do with them. I take them and I rip them up. Yeah, I get loud. I get loud. How do you not get loud? How do you not get loud when people are lying to your face? And the stakes that we're talking about are literally human lives. How do you not get loud about that? I'm sorry. I'll be calm. I'll speak in my little whispered, hushed tone. I'll have NPR play a banjo in the background as I freaking debate these vampires about the real cost of these wars. Every time you ring the bell below, an angel gets his wings. Totally not true, but it does keep you updated on our live shows.
