Iranian Regime Change Backers Just Gave The Game Away

An Iranian monarchist, Goldie Ghamari, threatened critics of regime change on live broadcast - showing what backers of the Shah are all about. Right, so an Iranian monarchist, Goldie Ghamari sat on Piers Morgan’s show, and when the conversation got a little bit tricky, she switched into Farsi, and told people what would happen to them after regime change in Iran. Not hypothetically. After. She said it plainly. It went out live. She threatened people’s lives. And nobody who’s been pushing regime change in Iran moved to disown it either. And that kills a useful fiction. Because the whole Iran story has depended on never saying this bit out loud. Never naming enforcement. Never naming punishment. Just “transition”, “momentum”, “inevitability”. Restoration of democracy, as if imposing another Shah as Ghamari would love to see, is anything of the sort. Once someone says who gets “come after”, when the regime changes – a fantasy as that is anyway, as the allegedly Mossad driven protests settle down - that language stops working. You can’t pretend this is about democracy when threats are being issued in advance of the changes you claim will be better for the Iranian people. The Shah was overthrown for a reason and for all the critique that can be levelled at the Ayatollah’s, a return to a monarchist autocracy would be worse. People like Ghamari forget that what they are calling for and the threats made to that end, are what put the Ayatollah’s in power to begin with. Right, so Goldie Ghamari sits on Piers Morgan’s prime-time programme, switches into Farsi, and issues a threat about what happens after regime change to people she says are threatening not just Iran but Israel as well. Words about coming after people. Retribution. That exchange is broadcast, clipped, and circulated. It is not disowned by the monarchist and regime-change ecosystem that put her there, that she represents. It is not treated as disqualifying. It just sits there, on the record, as the public face of Iranian monarchic restoration when pressure is absent. The reaction to that moment matters as much as the moment itself. There was little effort from Piers Morgan to distance himself. No condemnation from fellow panellists or from the exile monarchist networks that promote Ghamari.
