When Reza Pahlavi spoke at the Munich Security Conference, he called for U.S. military intervention in Iran, arguing it could weaken the Islamic Republic and save lives. This perspective raises moral concerns, as it overlooks the destructive impact of war, evidenced by high civilian casualties in past U.S. conflicts. Such calls for intervention also risk normalizing military force as a political tool, undermining the potential for peaceful dissent and fostering narratives of foreign conspiracy against opposition movements. Ultimately, it emphasizes the dangers of treating war as a solution to internal issues in any country.
