This lighter is headed for Tehran, Iran. Fingers crossed. However you came across this lighter, please upload a photograph of you with it, stating the first name(s) of the people in the photo -that can be just you, where (nearest village/town/city and country) and when (time and date) it was taken. Please include a short, publishable message of support for the people of Iran.

(Publishable in the UK explicitly precludes incitement to violence, threatening behaviour, 'hate speech', support for proscribed 'terrorist' organisations which currently legally includes Palestine Action but at the time of writing (19/4/2026) does not include Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, but does also preclude anything likely to be libellous). Admittedly that does rule out a lot. I appreciate that the more cynically minded among you may also be thinking 'A lighter? How will that help?'. The hope is that this will allow me personally to have a relatively global conversation, it's kind of a social experiment. But if you want to include details of how you might protest in your part of the world, that I can share, that might help. I recommend https://www.writetothem.com/ for people in the UK. It allows you to email your MP directly from the website. 'A letter to my MP? How will that help?', well, have you tried that yet? Ostensibly they work for you, but they are doing little to oppose Trump and Israel's war against NATO's and practically every nation's interests apart from, possibly, Israel's. It's our food prices that will be going up, the global economy coming to a stand still just so Trump can avoid talking about the Epstein files. Trump's own counter-terrorism officer quit recently because Iran wasn't an immediate threat to the USA. Why don't you demand that Starmer take a stronger line against the Israel-USA illegal war against Iran? I am for NATO, it is because I haven't forgotten that millions of Americas sacrificed their lives to defeat the evils of WW1 and WW2 and served Europe's better interests that we must demand that the evils of a frankly unstable-looking White House be opposed, that America's own best interests be served and President Trump be impeached.
