Young Iranian Man Begs Trump To Strike Regime Before Taking His Own Life: ‘Attacking Iran Is The Only Hope’

A young Iranian dissident named Pouria Hamidi reportedly took his own life after filming a desperate plea to President Donald Trump and the Western world, saying an attack on Iran was the “only hope” that Iranians have.

Hamidi, hailing from the Iranian city of Bushehr, utilized his final moments to expose the horrific reality of life under a regime he described as a “bandit group” and a “murderous terrorist” organization.

“He told us to keep protesting and we did it,” he said of Trump. “We trust him. To make a deal with this regime is to betray all those people who died. So please, I beg you, do whatever you can to stop this deal. America attacking Iran is the only hope we have right now. You don’t know how hopeless our people are right now. I mean, I myself, I can’t eat. I can’t sleep. I don’t know how some of my friends are doing right now.”

The video serves as a searing indictment of the regime’s recent crackdown on its own citizens. Hamidi claimed that in just a few short weeks, the government orchestrated a massacre resulting in the deaths of more than 40,000 people. “How can you fight people with guns?” Hamidi asked, noting that the regime employs foreign “Muslim terrorist groups” to slaughter Iranian protesters before making the bodies of the victims vanish.

Hamidi’s primary objective was to intercept potential diplomatic overtures from the United States. Directing his message toward the White House, he warned that for President Trump to strike a deal with the mullahs would be a “betrayal” of those who died fighting for freedom.

“We trust him,” Hamidi said, referencing Trump’s previous encouragement of Iranian protesters. “To make a deal with this regime is to betray all those people who died.”

Perhaps most strikingly, Hamidi addressed the cultural and religious divide within Iran, flatly rejecting the Islamic identity the regime has forced upon the population for decades. “We are not Muslims. In fact, we hate Islam,” he stated, characterizing his generation as one that views the religion as a colonizing force that contradicts Iranian values of equality. He went so far as to say that for many young Iranians, being called a “Muslim” is an insult on par with a racial slur because of the destruction the faith has brought to their lives.

Hamidi pointed to the 12-day 2025 war between Israel and Iran, noting that because most of those killed were government officials, it felt like “sweet revenge” to the Iranian public. He further urged the fragmented Iranian opposition to unite under the leadership of exiled Prince Reza Pahlavi to form a transitional government.

In his final, deeply personal reflections, Hamidi mourned a “meaningless” life where his future was systematically blocked by the state. He spoke of the “laughable” tragedy of being born into a regime that stole his childhood and denied him the simple dream of seeing snow.

By recording the video, Hamidi hoped to give his life a final sliver of meaning—a sacrifice intended to ensure that while he never saw a future, his friends and countrymen might.
