Neocon Podcaster Mark Levin Advocates Mass Murder in Iran
• https://ronpaulinstitute.org, by Kurt NimmoLevin strongly advocates for a continuation of the United States' bombing campaign against Iran. While Trump has dropped approximately 3,000 bombs on Iran, the Israeli Air Force has dropped over 12,000. These attacks extend beyond military targets, striking essential services such as power and water supply. This indiscriminate targeting poses a significant risk to public health emergencies and affects millions of civilians. Moreover, these actions violate international humanitarian law, as they involve the deliberate targeting of civilian infrastructure without a legitimate military necessity.
"As emphasized by international humanitarian organizations, the destruction of critical infrastructure in armed conflict can lead to cascading public health emergencies and the collapse of essential services, placing millions of civilians at acute risk," notes the Center for Human Rights in Iran. "Objects indispensable to the survival of the civilian population, including drinking water installations, electricity networks, and medical facilities, are afforded special protection and must not be targeted."
Mark Levin is calling for the mass murder of Iranian civilians, either violently in bombing raids or in their wake by disease and starvation. It either does not occur to him bombing densely populated cities (Tehran: population 10 million) is inhumane and a serious war crime, or he does not care. The Zionist objective is to destroy Iran and reduce it to a failed state like Libya.
Levin envisions the US seizing control of the Strait of Hormuz and crippling Iran's economy. However, he appears to underestimate the immense challenges involved. Iran employs a multifaceted defense strategy to protect the strait, utilizing land-based missiles, a substantial naval mine stockpile, heavily fortified islands, and swarms of small boats, dubbed "Mosquito Fleets," armed with rockets, machine guns, and anti-ship missiles. There are shore-based anti-ship cruise missiles (ASCMs) and ballistic anti-ship missiles (ASBMs) positioned along its mountainous coast. Levin displays his ignorance of Iran's defensive capability. He is blinded by the impossible dream of decimating Iran and making Israel the undisputed hegemon of West Asia.
He wants to use American taxpayer money to arm insurgents inside Iran. The CIA and the Trump administration used Kurdish opposition groups in 2025 and 2026 to arm dissidents in an attempt to incite a violent uprising against the Iranian government. The CIA support for Iranian Kurdish groups began several months before the war, a senior Kurdistan Regional Government official said. The IRGC and the Basij successfully gained control of internal security following the CIA instigated attempt at regime change.
Mark Levin boasts about supporting, while working in the Reagan administration, a multibillion-dollar program to arm, train, and finance the Afghan Mujahideen and subsequently America's supposed most wanted terrorist, Osama bin Laden, allegedly the mastermind behind the murder of 3,000 Americans. Operation Cyclone (1979–1992) was the CIA's largest and most expensive covert operation in history.
"I served in the Reagan administration when we armed the Mujahideen," Levin proudly announced. If he knew anything at the time, he would know the Afghan Mujahideen was a project of the CIA and Pakistani intelligence. "The CIA became the grand coordinator [in a covert war against the Soviet Union in Afghanistan)," writes Phil Gasper.
During the Afghan civil war, the Mujahideen became the Taliban. "The U.S. government was well aware of the Taliban's reactionary program, yet it chose to back their rise to power in the mid-1990s," Gasper continues.
The creation of the Taliban was "actively encouraged by the ISI [Pakistani intelligence] and the CIA," according to Selig Harrison, an expert on U.S. relations with Asia. "The United States encouraged Saudi Arabia and Pakistan to support the Taliban, certainly right up to their advance on Kabul," adds respected journalist Ahmed Rashid. When the Taliban took power, State Department spokesperson Glyn Davies said that he saw "nothing objectionable" in the Taliban's plans to impose strict Islamic law, and Senator Hank Brown, chair of the Senate Foreign Relations Subcommittee on the Near East and South Asia, welcomed the new regime: "The good part of what has happened is that one of the factions at last seems capable of developing a new government in Afghanistan." "The Taliban will probably develop like the Saudis. There will be Aramco [the consortium of oil companies that controlled Saudi oil], pipelines, an emir, no parliament and lots of Sharia law. We can live with that," said another U.S. diplomat in 1997.
