‘Wake up’: Iran releases 25-page letter urging US voters to reject Trump ahead of midterms

Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has issued a 25-page letter targeting the United States ahead of the midterm elections. The letter aims to persuade American voters to reject President Donald Trump's policies and push for a change in US-Iran relations. The letter highlights the failure of the US war against Iran and urges Washington to withdraw from the region.

The IRGC claims that the conflict is being fueled by political leaders pursuing costly wars, and that ordinary Americans and Iranians share common interests and grievances. The letter urges Americans to oppose US support for Israel and foreign military interventions, and to question why their government continues to pursue military confrontations.

The timing of the letter is significant, as it is released five weeks before the US midterm elections, with the IRGC describing the period as when the American political system is at its weakest. The IRGC's approach to reaching out to the American public echoes Cold War-era efforts to communicate directly with adversaries.
