I am deeply moved to speak on the alarming situation in Iran, my beloved homeland, which has been under the oppressive grasp of the Islamic regime for far too long. From the depths of despair, I have watched as brave Iranians rise to their feet, demanding the fundamental freedom they so rightly deserve. However, their courage is met with brutal retaliation: beatings, imprisonments, and even death.

In every corner of the world, the cries for help from Iran echo, yet it is disheartening to see that while the Iranian people endure these atrocities, many influential voices offer their support from afar, away from the peril. The principle of leadership and legitimacy is rooted in shared risk, and I believe it's time for these influential voices to move beyond words and join in action.

Thus, I propose a symbolic and non-violent action. I invite influential Iranian figures and supporters of Iran's freedom to travel with me to Iran. Not as leaders, not in the pursuit of heroism, but as witnesses—witnesses to the struggles, the bravery, and the unyielding spirit of those who fight for their freedom every day.

This journey will send a powerful message to the world, that the plight of Iranians is not ignored and that there is a unified front willing to stand alongside them, shoulder to shoulder, witnessing their pursuit of freedom.

Your voice has the power to amplify this message. By supporting this cause, you can help to bring global attention to the dire situation in Iran and press international communities to act in solidarity with the Iranian people.

Sign this petition to back a peaceful act of witness, calling for influential individuals to stand with Iranians in their fight for freedom and justice. Together, let us shine a light on the courage of the Iranian people and empower them in their journey towards liberation.
