We’ve shown how WorldNetDaily columnist Marziyeh Amirizadeh’s main claim to fame is being someone who converted to Christianity in Iran (as well as badly losing a race for the Georgia legislature). She spent a January 2025 column agitating for regime change in Iran:
The world must understand that there can be no peace as long as the Islamic regime in Iran is in power and keeps supporting, brainwashing and fueling Palestinian Arabs and Muslims around the world with anti-Semitism. There can be no peace as long as radical Muslims seek the annihilation of Israel and extermination of Jews. Any kind of deal with terrorists shows weakness, empowers the enemy and rewards their evil behavior. That means enabling a genocidal enemy to regroup, rearm and reemerge.
Unfortunately, most Americans think that the war in Israel is only over the division of land between Jews and Arabs, and America is not in the cross-hairs – but the root of this radicalism, as we saw in New Orleans on Jan. 1, is in Islamic teaching. Sadly, many in America do not take the Islamic world and their goal in establishing a global caliphate seriously.
We must stand with Israel at this time of tension and trauma, and reinforce our own values to protect America and the West from the expansionist tentacles of the Islamic regime octopus. Unfortunately, I know from firsthand experience, and this truth cannot be overstated.
In a June 2025 column, Amirizadeh insisted that most Iranians supported Israel’s attack on Iran’s nuclear facilities:
The situation in Iran is dire amid Israel’s military operations targeting the Islamic Republic’s leadership, IRGC facilities and nuclear sites. Israel’s actions follow warnings to evacuate Tehran, prompting mass exodus. However, fuel shortages (limited to 15 liters per car daily), bank withdrawal restrictions (equivalent to $3 daily), inflation and a failing economy, and internet shutdowns have trapped many. The regime’s Basij forces block escape routes, and there are no bomb shelters or warning sirens, leaving civilians vulnerable. There are also reports that the IRGC has bombed civilian buildings to blame Israel, aiming to garner international sympathy.
Despite these hardships, Iranians support Israel’s actions, viewing them as a potential catalyst for regime collapse. Public celebrations have followed the elimination of IRGC leaders. It’s critical to note that the cumulative death toll from Israel’s strikes pales in comparison to the regime’s killing of thousands of Iranians during public protests mentioned above. The regime has intensified repression, arresting suspected Israel supporters and expediting executions to instill fear. The destruction of the Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting (IRIB), described as a propaganda mouthpiece of the regime, and staffed by prison interrogators, was met with public mockery and celebration.
The very fact that Iranians are demonstrating against the regime, celebrating Israel’s military successes and other acts of civil disobedience are noteworthy because they also risk having those doing so becoming the regime’s next victims.
She then asserted that a exiled monarch is the best person to lead Iran:
Iranians’ primary wish is for a democratic government that restores freedom and dignity. They seek to rekindle ties with the United States and Israel, distancing themselves from the regime’s terrorist label. Prince Reza Pahlavi is the only legitimate opposition and best leader for Iran’s future. He is widely supported in the growing protests. Rather than “making a deal” with the regime that will strengthen the ayatollah’s rule, such as the 2015 JCPOA that funds it, if America wants true peace, it can only be achieved with a free Iran.
We’ve noted how Pahlavi is clinging to reflected right-wing Trump glory in order to claim legitimacy.
raged against a United Nations speech by the president of Iran in an October 2025 column, again rooting for regime change:
Watching Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian address the United Nations General Assembly was not only nauseating but also infuriating for millions of Iranians. To hear a man with the blood of countless citizens on his hands lecture the world about human rights, equality and the rights of Gaza’s children is nothing short of grotesque hypocrisy.
If the U.N. were to replace its teleprompters with lie detectors when Iranian envoys speak, the results would shock the world. These representatives of the Islamic Republic do not come to promote peace or truth – they come to distort reality, present themselves as victims and whitewash their crimes to fool the world.
[…]For more than four decades, the Islamic Republic has terrorized its own people, destabilized the region and deceived the international community. Its leaders pose as defenders of justice while committing atrocities at home and abroad. When Pezeshkian holds up pictures of Gaza’s children, the world should remember the thousands of Iranian children whose lives were stolen by the same regime.
The Iranian people reject this tyranny. They long for freedom, justice and peace – not the lies and oppression of men who masquerade as statesmen while behaving like criminals. It is time for the international community to stop being fooled, stop giving the Islamic Republic any platform to spread its extremist ideology and propaganda, and instead hold it accountable for its crimes against humanity.
How is this different from Pahlavi? She doesn’t explain.
