Very recommendable! Hope and pray for the Iranian people to finally get rid of the theocratic dictatorship!
"... How do these uprisings differ from those in 2019 and 2022?
According to Rajavi, this current uprising displays a dramatic increase in organization, focuses on dismantling centers of repression, and has expanded nationwide across Iran's largest cities and smallest towns, involving all 31 provinces and at least 207 cities.
Rajavi told Just the News, "Unlike the 2022 uprising, which was sparked by the regime’s killing of Zhina (Mahsa) Amini and initially revolved around the issue of compulsory hijab, and unlike the November 2019 uprising, which was triggered by the shock of gasoline price hikes, today’s uprising is not tied to a single incident or a specific, short-term demand. This movement is the product of a long accumulation of anger, political awareness, and collective will for regime change. It is therefore not a transient explosion, but a conscious movement with an explicitly overthrow-oriented character." ...
The primary organized resistance is the People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (MEK) and its Resistance Units, a movement with six decades of uninterrupted struggle against both the Shah's dictatorship and the current regime.
According to Rajavi, the atrocities against MEK are devastating. "More than 100,000 of its members and supporters have been executed or killed under torture, including 30,000 political prisoners hanged in the 1988 massacre solely for remaining loyal to the MEK. ...
If and when an overthrow happens, how long will it take to restore order, and how will the process unfold?
"With a deeply rooted, organized, and nationwide resistance inside the country and a recognized democratic alternative, the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI), the transfer of sovereignty from dictatorship to the people can take place in an orderly, peaceful, democratic, and law-based manner. What makes this transition possible is not merely the fall of the regime, but the existence of a ready political and executive framework for “the day after,” and that is precisely what the NCRI has prepared for years." ...
The NCRI’s vision includes complete gender equality, separation of religion and state, autonomy for Iranian Kurdistan, judicial independence, and freedom of parties—principles outlined in the Ten-point Plan for a Free Iran presented more than two decades ago. ...
Given Iran's dynamic and freedom-loving culture of the 1970s, will Iranians naturally return to that after the regime falls, or have decades of repression made that difficult?
"Iran possesses a rich, millennia-old culture that both monarchical and religious dictatorships have tried to deform and destroy. That is why the Iranian people reject both systems. The overthrow of this regime will therefore herald a cultural, social, and political renaissance—most notably a devastating blow to Islamic fundamentalism, for which this regime has been the global epicenter. Women will play a central role in this transformation and are its primary driving force." ..."
