To The People of Iran: When you believe you have reached the end of your strength, go one step further. History shows that regimes often appear strongest just before they break. George Washington understood this in America’s darkest hour, not at the moment of victory, but when his forces were depleted and resolve was tested. He knew his adversary was weakened, too. The balance of power can shift when ordinary people refuse to give in at the very moment they are told it is hopeless.
