‘Wake up’: Iran releases 25-page letter urging US voters to reject Trump ahead of midterms

Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has made a direct appeal to American voters, urging them to reject President Donald Trump’s policies and “wrest control back from corrupt politicians” as the US heads towards its midterm elections. In a lengthy open letter addressed to the American public, the powerful Iranian military force argued that Washington’s war against Iran had failed to achieve its objectives and called for a change in US policy towards Tehran.The 25-page letter, released seven months after the US-Israel war against Iran began, seeks to draw a distinction between the American people and their government. The IRGC argues that ordinary Iranians and Americans share common interests and grievances, portraying both as victims of political leaders pursuing costly wars.
