Iran’s bloodthirsty mullahs are now openly turning their own citizens, including children and young people, into human shields around the regime’s critical power plants and key infrastructure sites.
As The Gateway Pundit reported just hours ago, Iran’s Deputy Minister for Youth Affairs and Secretary of the Supreme Youth Council, Alireza Rahimi, has brazenly called on “young people, athletes, artists, students and professors” to gather around the nation’s power plants at 2 p.m. local time today.
They’re dubbing it the “Iran’s Youth Human Chain for a Bright Future.”

This latest outrage comes as President Trump’s deadline for Iran to fully reopen the Strait of Hormuz looms large. Trump has made it crystal clear: fail to comply by 8 p.m. Eastern, and America and its allies will unleash hell on Iran’s infrastructure, power plants, bridges, the works.
The regime knows Trump means business, unlike the weak-kneed appeasers who preceded him.
Reports flooding in confirm Iranians are already gathering en masse around key sites. Videos on social media show crowds forming human chains at power plants nationwide, with state media blasting the call as a “show of solidarity.”

The Gateway Pundit reported earlier that Trump has taken to Truth Social and vowed to wipe out Iran’s entire civilization and bring a permanent end to Iran’s Islamist dictatorship.
Here is Trump’s full blood-curdling announcement on Truth Social:
“A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again. I don’t want that to happen, but it probably will.
However, now that we have Complete and Total Regime Change, where different, smarter, and less radicalized minds prevail, maybe something revolutionarily wonderful can happen, WHO KNOWS? We will find out tonight, one of the most important moments in the long and complex history of the World.
47 years of extortion, corruption, and death, will finally end. God Bless the Great People of Iran!”
