Tampa Bay 28 News Tonight | Iranian-American Speaks Out: “We Were Betrayed”
After supporting what he believed was a mission to confront the Iranian regime, Iranian-American and St. Petersburg martial arts coach Amir Ardebily says the new U.S.-Iran agreement feels like a betrayal.
“I supported this because I believed it would help free the Iranian people. Instead, I feel embarrassed, disappointed, and betrayed. The suffering, sacrifices, and hopes of millions of Iranians were ignored.”
Ardebily, who immigrated to the United States from Iran in 1985, says history will ultimately judge this moment. While many Americans may move on with their daily lives, he believes the Iranian people will continue to live with the consequences for years to come.
Watch my interview tonight on Tampa Bay 28 News.

“WHO SOLD OUT IRAN?”

The media is celebrating. Politicians are declaring victory. Markets are responding.
But before we celebrate, let’s ask one simple question:
Who paid the highest price?
For years, young Iranian men and women risked everything for freedom. Many lost their lives, their futures, and their families in the fight against oppression. Today, while politicians negotiate and economic interests take center stage, millions are left wondering whether their sacrifice meant anything at all.
Did America win?
Did Iran win?
Or did the politicians win while the people lost?
In this controversial episode of Amir’s Podcast, we examine the deal, the politics behind it, and the human cost that many seem to have forgotten.
The headlines tell one story.
The people living it tell another.
Watch, listen, and decide for yourself.

Modern Istanbul: Freedom or Illusion?
I traveled to Istanbul expecting history, culture, incredible food, and beautiful architecture… and I found all of that.

But underneath the beauty, I also discovered political tension, propaganda, fear, deep division, and a side of modern Turkey most tourists never truly experience.

In this explosive episode of Amir’s Podcast, I talk openly about:
• The hidden atmosphere underneath Istanbul’s tourism image
• Conversations with locals about Iran, religion, and politics
• Government control, police checkpoints, and protest crackdowns
• Why I changed my flight and left Turkey four days early
• The difference between LOOKING free and FEELING free
• Why traveling made me appreciate America even more

This episode is not about attacking people or cultures. It’s about sharing raw observations, personal experiences, and uncomfortable truths from my journey through one of the most fascinating and contradictory cities in the world.

Beautiful on the outside. Complicated underneath.

Welcome to Istanbul.

LET’S TALK ABOUT SOMETHING EXTREMELY IMPORTANT RIGHT NOW.

The war with Iran is not just another headline or social media trend — it’s about millions of lives, decades of oppression, terrorism, propaganda, and the future of an ancient civilization.

As an Iranian-American, I cannot stay silent while people who have never lived under the Islamic regime confidently speak about Iran without understanding the reality the Iranian people have suffered through for 47 years.

This is not about hating Iran.
This is about opposing a brutal regime that has murdered its own people, funded terrorism, destroyed families, silenced women, imprisoned protesters, and spread fear across the Middle East for decades.

The Iranian people are NOT the enemy.
The Ayatollahs are.

Social media propaganda is winning because too many people are emotionally reacting without understanding history, geopolitics, or the suffering of ordinary Iranians.

A free Iran would change the world.
The Iranian people deserve freedom, dignity, and a future without fear.

This regime survives on propaganda, fear, and hopelessness.
And that is exactly why people must continue speaking the truth.

This regime must go.
And eventually — it will.

Iranian Voices Matter More Than Celebrity Opinions

For decades, the Iranian people have suffered under a brutal regime while much of Hollywood and the celebrity world stayed silent.

Now suddenly, many celebrities, influencers, actors, and singers want to speak about Iran, war, and morality — but where were these voices when innocent Iranian women, men, and children were being beaten, imprisoned, and executed?

This video is not about silencing opinions. Everyone has the right to speak freely. But real courage means consistency. Real humanity means standing against oppression even when it’s unpopular — not only when it becomes trendy online.

The suffering of the Iranian people is not a hashtag, not a trend, and not a Hollywood script. It is real life. Real families. Real pain. Real sacrifice.

This episode discusses hypocrisy, selective outrage, celebrity culture, freedom, and the forgotten voices of the Iranian people.
