Elon Musk Activates Starlink in Iran After Regime Cuts Internet During Israeli Strikes
Dictators fear many things. They fear sunlight exposing their crimes. They fear truth reaching their people. But most of all, they fear when their citizens discover they’re not alone. In Iran today, a battle rages between darkness and light—not just from Israeli missiles striking nuclear sites, but from something far more dangerous to tyranny: information itself.
The mullahs thought they had the perfect plan. Cut the internet. Silence the people. Hide the damage. What they didn’t count on was an American entrepreneur with satellites and a simple message that would echo across the Persian nation.
Iran’s regime pulled the plug on Friday, implementing what they called “temporary restrictions” on internet access nationwide. The timing was no coincidence. As Israeli strikes pummeled their nuclear equipment, Tehran’s tyrants desperately tried to keep their people in the dark. The Ministry of Communications promised services would return “once normalcy returns”—which really meant “when we’ve crushed any hope of uprising.”
Fox News host Mark Levin saw the opportunity immediately. Taking to X (formerly Twitter), he made a bold declaration. Elon Musk could “put the final nail in the coffin of the Iranian regime” by providing Starlink internet to the Iranian people. It was a digital call to arms. Entrepreneur to entrepreneur. Freedom lover to freedom lover.
Musk’s response was short and powerful: “The beams are on.”
