Ending the Double Standard: Why the U.S. Must Expel Iranian Regime Affiliates and Their Families

There is also the issue of the "Aghazadehs," the privileged children of the Iranian elite, who often flaunt their wealth and freedom on social media while young people in Iran are arrested or killed for simply wanting to show their hair or listen to music. This disparity is a slap in the face to the brave Iranians fighting for basic human rights. The U.S. should not be a playground for the children of dictators. Sending them back home would be a powerful act of solidarity with the Iranian protesters, showing that the U.S. will not allow the oppressors’ families to enjoy the fruit of a liberty they deny to others.
