An End to the Iranian Regime Is Coming: Supporting The Iranian People And Its Organised Resistance

Iran's so-called Assembly of Experts recently expressed concerns about the
consequences of the widespread Iranian uprising in a meeting of its senior
board.
In this meeting assembly chief Ahmad Jannati and spokesman Ahmad Khatami
highlighted three crises facing the Regime in response to the protests; the
legitimacy of the people's demands, the blowback that the Regime is facing
internationally because of its crackdown against the protests, and the
Regime's failure to censor and control the internet.
The truth is the Regime were unprepared for the Iranian people's protest which
clearly demanded regime change and they were also unprepared for the
international community to largely support the Iranian people.
Mehdi Abrishamchi, Chair of the Peace Commission in the Iranian opposition
coalition, the National Council of Resistance of Iran ( NCRI ), said: 'This
uprising took the ruling regime and many foreign analysts by surprise. At a
time when the Iranian Resistance has time and again during the past year
emphasized how Iran's atmosphere is ready for significant developments and a
major uprising. Step by step NCRI statements and speeches delivered by NCRI
President Maryam Rajavi very specifically explained how conditions for
overthrowing this regime are ripe and at hand.'
Indeed, less than two weeks before the protests started, Rajavi addressed a
Paris conference and said: "We have once again come together to convey to the
world the voice of the suffering people of Iran; to say that the Iranian
people and Resistance are prepared to overthrow the mullahs' religious
dictatorship and replace it with a government based on freedom, equality, and
democracy.'
It really becomes a case of 'how could anyone not see this coming?'
The protesters attacked a large number of Regime buildings, including the
offices of the representatives of Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, who
orchestrated the crackdown against the protesters. There is not one instance
of the protesters attacking private property. This is not an unorganised mob;
this is a highly organised populace making it clear that they are unhappy with
the Regime as they chant 'Death to Khamenei'.
It is clear from this that the Iranian people see the Regime as the true cause
of their problems and know that the only solution is regime change.
For years, the Regime has presented a moderate versus hardliners debate to
muddy the waters for international governments to intervene. The Iranian
people have loudly declared this to be false and made it clear that there are
no moderates in the Regime. This again shows that the only option in regime
change.
NCRI member Shahriar Kia wrote on Riyadh Daily: "During the past 36 years, the
factor preventing this religious and fundamentalist dictatorship, known as the
"Velayat-e faqih,' to establish a vast extremist empire inside Iran and
throughout the Middle East, and endanger peace and stability across the globe,
is the presence of an active alternative paying the heavy price of this
initiative. The NCRI and [the People's Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI/MEK)]
are the entities behind this ongoing effort. The MEK, enjoying deep roots in
Iran's history and vast domestic and international support, has been able to
alert the world regarding Tehran's clandestine nuclear program and terrorist
plots abroad. The MEK has not allowed Iran's mullahs become a nuclear power
and take the entire Middle East under their control."
The international community must oppose the Iranian Regime and support the
Iranian people and its organised Resistance.
Rajavi said: "I urge the Council of Europe, the European Union and its member
states, and the United Nations to stand beside the people of Iran and not the
mullahs' theocratic regime. The regime must understand that it has to pay a
high price for opening fire on demonstrators and killing them under torture.'
The Regime may have quelled the current wave of protests, but another one is
coming and soon the Regime will be overthrown.
