Demonization Campaign Against MEK by Iran mullahs regime

Remarks by Ali Safavi, a member of the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI) in an interview with NCR-Iran.org:
 

Ali Safavi, a member of the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI)

The Iranian regime's desperate attempt to demonize the Iranian resistance, including the PMOI MEK or Mujahedin-e Khalq as well as the National Council of Resistance, has to be seen in the context of the regime's, increasing paranoia about the role and the impact and the effectiveness of the MEK in organizing and directing the anti-government protests that have erupted in Iran over the past year.
Indeed, the many regime's officials from Ali Khamenei, the Supreme Leader, to Hassan Rouhani and others, including commanders of the Revolutionary Guards, have acknowledged the role of the mek implementing the unrest within Iran. “Obviously the international community now is watching and seeing that the regime is on its last legs. So by trying to demonize the opposition, the regime is trying to put forward the narrative that there is no viable democratic popular alternative within Iran. And as such, real politic would dictate the continuation of the status quo, which is of course a policy of engaging and appeasing division in Iran. “There's no question that some of the slanders and allegations that have been directed at the resistance have been concocted in the Iranian Ministry of Intelligence and Security (MOIS) whose officials have been caught in Europe for the direct involvement and direction of terrorist plots against the NCRI and the MEK. And in fact, if anything the regime's resort to such blatant violations of law in Europe and in the United States demonstrates the degree to which they are paranoid about the role and the impact of the MEK and the NCRI as a democratic viable opposition to the war.”

Maryam Rajavi’s message to the demonstration of Iranians in Paris-Feb 8, 2019

On the eve of the 40th anniversary of the anti-monarchy revolution in Iran,a huge rally was held on Friday, February 19, in protest against the massive violations of the human rights and terror operations directed by the Iranian regime on the European soil at Denfert Square in Paris.

Mrs. Maryam Rajavi, president-elect of the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI), delivered a video speech to the Free Iran Rally in Paris.



This is the full transcrip:
Hail to you my fellow compatriots, the friends of the Iranian Resistance and our dear guests,

You convey the cries of all Iranians against tyranny and dependence. You are the voice of all Iranians who call for the overthrow of the clerical regime and demand the establishment of a republic, based on democracy and separation of religion and state.

From here, we would send our warmest greetings to the protesters in Iran, to the freedom fighters of the resistance units, and the standard bearers of freedom all across the nation.

On the anniversary of the Iranian people’s anti-monarchic revolution, I pay tribute to all the trailblazers and leaders of that great revolution, particularly to Mohammad Hanifnejad, Saeid Mohsen and Ali Asghar Badizadegan, to Massoud Ahmadzadeh, Pouyan, Bijan Jazani, and Shokrollah Paknejad.

Today is February 8th. On the 37th anniversary of the martyrdom of Ashraf Rajavi, Moussa Khiabani and the Mojahedin who accompanied them in their heroic battle, we salute them. Their sacrifice guaranteed the resistance of the people of Iran against the mullahs’ anti-Iranian Caliphate.

With the overthrow of the Shah’s corrupt dictatorship and his regime of torture, his true successors, namely Khomeini and Khamenei, took over the helms. Our people faced a whirlpool of horror and darkness which they had to go through in order to achieve freedom.


Hail to the people of Iran who have paved most of this tortuous path with their uprisings and battles such as the one on June 20, 1981, the Eternal Light battles and the perseverance in Asharf.

Today, we are hopeful and we can see the signs of victory culminated in the uprisings and protests throughout the past year.

As Amnesty International attested, 7,000 persons were arrested last year for protesting against the regime. The number of those arrested is of course higher. Furthermore, the mullahs killed a number of protesters in custody and cast it as suicides. They tortured many of the detainees and cracked down on our Arab, Kurdish and Balochi compatriots, on workers, teachers, students and women and youth, and on other sectors of society who have stood up to the regime.

The Iranian nation sacrificed 120,000 of her children but did not give in. She never surrendered and the uprisings and revolts continued because this is an uprising until victory.

As Massoud Rajavi, the Leader of the Iranian Resistance, once said, “We can amass the flames and fires of the uprisings to make a volcano that could uproot and overthrow the regime. The real answer, the essential and true answer, has been and will continue to be in escalating the fights and revolts to the maximum, so much that the resistance units would improve and elevate to the National Liberation Army and pound the army of the anti-human enemy.”

Dear friends of the Iranian Resistance,
Our nation has started a new era, a new phase, in her battle to bring down the mullahs’ theocratic rule.

So, they expect the international community to respect their struggle and recognize their high goal of liberating Iran and the entire world from the evil and mischief of the mullahs’ religious fascism.

Western governments bear double responsibility in this regard because they have had a role in preserving this regime particularly in the past two decades.

The policy of appeasement offered countless opportunities for the survival of the regime, especially as through obstruction of the road to change in Iran by cracking down on the Iranian Resistance, blacklisting it, and restricting it.

It is exactly for this reason that the end to these crises also lies in recognition of the Iranian people’s right to resistance to topple the mullahs’ religious fascism and attain freedom.
Such recognition lies in the heart of the solution to the Iranian problem. This is the path to freedom in Iran, and the road to peace and tranquility in the region and the world.

Therefore, I would like to stress on the need to blacklist the Iranian regime’s Ministry of Intelligence (MOIS) and the Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) in the U.S. and European Union.

Now, our question to those who are still persisting in their worn-out policy of appeasement of the mullahs is, ‘why do you want to prolong the suffering of the people of Iran and other nations in the region? Is it not enough? Indeed, what does it take for you to learn your lessons from the mullahs’ savage terrorism in recent months in the heart of Europe and in the U.S.?

Stand up to the clerical regime and prevent their access to missile programs and any form of arms and equipment.

The Iranian people and Resistance do not want this regime to have any bullets, or sell any barrel of oil, or spend a single dollar of the Iranian nation’s wealth on suppression and terrorism.

The objective of the Iranian people and their Resistance is to overthrow the regime in its entirety. The goal is freedom, democracy, and the sovereignty of our people’s republic.

Yes, now is the turn for the mullahs to be overthrown.

The selfless women and men who have never given in to the darkness of the mullahs’ tyranny will make the glorious goal of freedom a reality, hand in hand with the resistance units and Iranian protesters.

The darkness of theocracy will end with the dawn of freedom.
Hail to freedom
Hail to the people of Iran
And hail to the determination of you tireless friends

Iran opposition group calls for regime change in Paris march

By The Associated Press
Fri., Feb. 8, 2019
PARIS - Several thousand supporters of an exiled Iranian opposition group marched through Paris on Friday, calling for an end to Iran’s clerical regime 40 years after the Islamic revolution toppled Iran’s monarchy.

The Mujahedeen-e-Khalq, widely referred to in the West as the MEK, were joined at the rally by an array of speakers before the march, from former and current French politicians to a one-time Algerian prime minister and a Syrian opposition figure.

Demontration in Paris in support for Iranian resistance NCRI

Crowds waved posters of group leader Maryam Rajavi and founder Massoud Rajavi — not seen since 2003 in Iraq, where the MEK once had a camp and waged war against Iran before being disarmed by invading U.S. troops.

The group bases its headquarters outside Paris with several thousand members in Albania, extracted in a U.N.-brokered effort from Iraq. Supporters are scattered elsewhere in the West as part of the Iranian diaspora.

Security was tight during the rally and march through Paris’ Left Bank. The group’s annual rally last year was the target of an alleged bomb plot, which was thwarted by arrests. An Austrian-based Iranian diplomat is being held in Belgium, where police found bomb material in the car of a couple of Iranian origin.

“As long as we’re dealing with the main state sponsor of terrorism, there is a concern ... But that will never stop us,” MEK spokesman Shahin Gobadi said. The MEK hones to U.S. President Donald Trump’s hard line on Iran, and supports U.S. sanctions on Iran.

One speaker, former French Sen. Jean-Pierre Michel, said in an interview that “I’m not a fanatic of Mr. Trump ... but I think the United States is right about Iran.” He chastised Europeans for what he views as their softer approach to Tehran.

Michel, 80, is a long-time supporter of the Mujahedeen, which has drawn around it numerous U.S. and European parliamentarians and former officials who disagree with critics’ portrayal of the organization as cult-like.

He praised MEK for having a woman at its head who says she wants democracy and separation of church and state in a future Iran, and he hopes one day to visit Tehran with Rajavi, saying, “It keeps me alive.”

Free Iran Rally – Paris 8 February 2019

The 40th anniversary of the 1979 anti-monarchic Revolution will be next month.
Iranian people are suffering for about half of century by a brutal religious dictatorship.
In this occasion The French Committee in Support of Human Rights in Iran (CSDHI) is calling for a major demonstration on Friday, February 8, 2019, against serious and massive human rights violations in Iran and the terrorist acts of the Iranian regime on European soil against its opposition.

Iranian diaspora call for a free Iran and support the democrticalternative NCRI

The Council of the European Union decided unanimously on January 8 to include a branch of the Iranian Ministry of Intelligence on its terrorist groups’ list. The decision stemmed from the regime’s role in a foiled attack on the People's Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI /MEK)’s annual gathering on June 30, 2018 in Villepinte.
Riding the wave of revolution against the monarchist dictatorship in Iran, the mullahs betrayed the cause of this great revolution for "independence, freedom and the republic" by instead establishing a religious dictatorship.
Iran stands on the brink of the 40th anniversary of the fall of the shah’s dictatorship (which took place in February 1979). Today, the Iranian regime, like the shah’s 40-years-ago, is more bogged down than ever. Incurable crises, protests and uprisings plague the regime. The Iranian public demands fundamental freedoms in every corner of the country. The demonstrators in Paris will express their support for freedom and democracy in Iran and the democratic alternative embodied by the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI).
This initiative is supported by several district mayors of Paris, numerous human rights associations and the French Committee in support of Human Rights in Iran (CSDHI)

The U.S. Secretary of State and a regime change speech

Zohair Ahmad
May 21, 2018 - In a speech to the Heritage Foundation, U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo laid out the roadmap for the U.S. policy toward the Iranian regime after President Donald Trump ended the United States participation in the nuclear deal with Iran, formally known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA).

Pompeo in his speech announced 12 conditions for  a new agreement with Iran:

The religious dictatorship ruling Iran, the worst enemy of God

Iftar Gathering Paris May 19, 2018

On the advent of the Holy Month of Ramadan, on Saturday, May 19, 2018 a number of Muslim dignitaries from the Arab nations of Jordan, Syria, Algeria, and Yemen and the Muslim community of France took part in an Iftar (break of fast) gathering entitled, “Message of Islam: Peace and Freedom,” at Auvers-sur-Oise in Paris.
Keynote speaker was Mrs. Maryam Rajavi the NCRI President-elect and she described the religious dictatorship ruling Iran as the worst enemy of God and His people for inflicting oppression and injustice on people under the name of God and Islam. She said the history of Islam has never seen any rulers more corrupt and criminal than the mullahs.

She wished this month to be a month of emancipation, peace and solidarity for the world, and the nations of the Middle East, particularly the brother nation of Syria, be relieved from war, slaughter, devastation and the evil reign of the Iranian regime.

The NCRI President-elect Maryam Rajavi 

“Today, the first step in solving the Syrian problem is evicting the Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) from that country,” Maryam Rajavi added. “Elimination of the Iranian regime’s terrorism and nuclear threat is only possible by getting rid of the entire regime. Peace, democracy, security, and stability in the Middle East necessarily depend on ending the rule of religious dictatorship and fascism in Iran.”

The message of Iran uprising and the ultimatum of Trump

By start of new wave of Iranian people uprising in 142 cities, all political researchers are following the new changes in political stage and in the middle east
this article by @shahriarkia in @DailyCaller  is the best for getting a true view of what is going on in the next months

Regime Change Is Coming In Iran

As the ultimatum begins in regards to demands made by U.S. President Donald Trump to make a final decision on the Iran nuclear deal, formally known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), we are a witnessing a wave of tensions and grave concerns inside the Iranian regime.

The parallel nature of this ultimatum with the nationwide uprising aiming to overthrow the Iranian regime, beginning on December 28 and continuing to this day, is bound to place Tehran before a major impasse.
In contrast to previous encounters when Tehran considered such challenges as bluffs, this time around Iranian regime officials are revealing their fears and taking these threats “very seriously.”
President Trump also upped the ante in his stand-off with Iran, vowing US support for street protests against Tehran’s clerical regime.
“America stands with the people of Iran in their courageous struggle for freedom,” he declared.
The question is what solutions lay before Tehran? Can the regime surpass this crisis? How will the international community support the nations of Iran and the entire region in realizing true and lasting peace?

The future of Iran's uprising ,Concerns and Reactions

Iran's Future, In Its Own Words
By +Heshmat Alavi 

On the very sensitive subject of how Iran plans to confront ongoing protests, described by some as an uprising, all the while attempting to resolve the very issues engulfing the ruling regime, there are critical concerns raising from various voices within.
And considering U.S. President Donald Trump's powerful State of the Union message, underscoring "America stands with the people of Iran in their courageous struggle for freedom," the stakes at hand in the months ahead for Tehran are extremely high.

Iran uprising 2018

Iran's state-linked media are a good source, shedding significant and noteworthy light on the seemingly obscure nature of the Iranian regime.

The common tone heard in all such messages is hopelessness. Those loyal to the faction of Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei see the solution in sacking the regime's president, Hassan Rouhani.
Arguments from the other side of the aisle in Tehran's politics rely on warning the Khamenei camp that such a scenario will not end the regime's escalating quandaries. This is only the beginning and there is no stopping this train, adding the entirety of this regime is in the crosshairs.
There are those who believe dark days await those sitting on the throne in Tehran, speaking of future uprising waves. Providing no solutions, their words can mean nothing but succumbing to an inevitable downfall.
"Those who have continuously spread despair and anxiety through their platforms in state TV/radio and Friday prayers (in reference to the Khamenei camp) seek to portray Rouhani as incompetent. They issue and chant slogans of 'Death to Rouhani,' failing to answer the inescapable question of who after Rouhani. The answer is obvious: surpassing Rouhani means overcoming the government, reaching the very principle of our state, and finally surpassing the Islamic Republic itself," according to the Tadbir24 website, known for its affiliation to the Rouhani camp.
Interesting is how this piece considers Rouhani a synonym of the ruling state or at least the velayat-e faqih regime's last chance of survival, warning surpassing Rouhani is tantamount to the end of the clerical rule altogether.
Protesters in the streets, however, are crystal clear in their intentions and how they view the overall regime apparatus. Chanting "Death to Rouhani," "Death to Khamenei," and most interestingly, "Reformists, principalists, end of story," the Iranian people are demanding sweeping changes, accepting nothing short of regime change. This ends Iran's scheme of portraying a system established on two parties of conservatives and reformists.

Reformists, principalists, end of story

"The issue at hand is not limited to merely surpassing Rouhani. More grave ends may be awaiting us," according to the Jamaran website, explaining how these protests are raising eyebrows across the board amongst senior Iranian officials.
"Let us be frank: Taking into consideration the current heading, our destination will be nothing but all out ruin," according to the Asr Iran website, another Rouhani camp mouthpiece.
"The society has become a cradle for numerous crises that will surface in other forms (read in further nationwide protests)," according to Rouhani's economic advisor Hossein Zaghfar.
Warnings of other crises in the making and Iran anticipating further calamities are indicating signs of Iran's ruling elite understanding very well there the harsh reality of these protests' refusal to ever melt down.
To add insult to injury for the mullahs, the brave Iranian people are showing how the regime's crackdown machine no longer enjoys its previous teeth. For forty years the clerical regime has been relying on this entity to remain intact and in power. Scenes of protesters tearing down Khamenei posters and attacking sites of the Revolutionary Guards Basij paramilitary force, parallel to a wave of Basij members burning their IDs and credentials, speak for themselves.
Iran's protests will continue despite the fact that authorities killed 53 protesters and sent over 8,000 others behind bars, reports indicate.
The Iranian people are proving to the world over their objective of seeking regime change and establishing a republic based on democratic values rightfully cherished by most of today's countries.
History shows those movements presenting a specific alternative to the ruling state have a far better chance of realizing victory for the people. A leading entity with a publicized plan for the future and the courage that the populace can rely on.
The time has come to set aside the "reformist" mirage in Iran. For decades, Maryam Rajavi, as President of the National Council of Resistance of Iran, is providing the sole, realistic alternative for Iran with a ten-point plan that enjoys the support of thousands of elected officials across the globe.
For starters, however, there are certain duties and obligations before the international community:
•Demand the release of all recently arrested protesters & political prisoners.
•Provide free internet access to all of Iran to allow activists report the truth about this regime, unfortunately, cloaked by mainstream media.
•Continue cutting off Iran's access to the global financial system. This will deprive the IRGC of the financial sources it desperately needs to continue its slate of domestic and foreign belligerence.
This is a noble launch of standing shoulder to shoulder with the Iranian people in "their courageous struggle for freedom."

Asma Jahangir’s dim report on the horrendous human rights violations in Iran

29.10.2017
By Zohair Ahmad
Earlier this year the special rapporteur on  human rights in Iran, Asma Jahangir delivered a dim report about all the violations committed in Iran and for the first time she mentioned the 1988 massacre of political prisoners by the Iranian regime, she also called for the assembly of a committee to investigate the Massacre and to bring the culprits to justice. 

Asma Jahangir UN special rapporteur on  human rights in Iran

As expected the Iranian regime was trying to cover up their crimes by making accusations against the UN special rapporteur claiming that all crimes were fabricated and accused her of being totally political against Iran. He claimed that all minorities in Iran are allowed to have activities unless they are harmful to Iranian society ( read the clerical regime). He also added that “we denounce the appointment of the country-specific Rapporteur …., no country should change its way of life because of western dictation” Mr. Hassaninejad seem to forget that murder is not a way of life, it is a crime. And any regime that legitimate murder like the 1988 massacre must be prosecuted and sentenced in an independent court of law. 

In her report, Jahangir expressed concern over the rate of executions in Iran. Reports indicate that at least 435 persons have been executed in the first half of 2017. At least 4 of them was children. And 86 children are on death row, this is the known cases, the actual figure might be higher. 

Mrs. Jahangir asked for a withdrawal of the death sentence that has been issued to the imprisoned teacher Mr. Taheri, she also called for his unconditional release. 
The massacre of 1988 in Iran was addressed as a crime against humanity and the Rapporteur added that the persecution of ordinary Iranians based on their political beliefs is not a recent phenomenon but is well ingrained in the Iranian regime’s DNA. She added that in 1988 the regime slaughtered more than 30 000 political prisoners in just a couple of months, the regime buried the victims in mass graves and tried to cover up the crime, to hide it from the rest of the world. 
 The rapporteur stressed that despite the recent acknowledgments of the genocide from the highest- ranking members of the regime, the international community has still been largely silent and this silence must end.  Jahangir said that the families of the victims have a right to remedy, reparation and the right to know the truth about these events and the fate of their loved ones without reprisal.
She repeated her call upon the government to ensure that a thorough and independent investigation into these events is carried out. 
Jahangir also paid tribute to the many human rights defenders who have risked their lives to speak to her about the situation in Iran. 
We will join Jahangir in her call to bring justice to the victims of the 1988 Massacre and we would like to urge the UN to assemble an inquiry committee to investigate the massacre.
 We might never know the exact number of victims of this hideous crime but we will continue our quest to bring the culprits to trial. And to get justice for the victims of the 1988 massacre.

Mrs. Maryam Rajavi, the phoenix of the Iranian resistance

21.10.17
By Zohair Ahmad
Since she joined the Iranian resistance more than 40 years ago, Maryam Rajavi has become the phoenix that has united the different organizations that the Iranian resistance is made up of. 
She was born into a middle-class family. She and her siblings, a brother, and two sisters were a part of the MEK, first during the reign of the Shah,(1973-1979) later under the rule of the Mullahs. Her Brother Mahmoud is a veteran member of the MEK and was a political prisoner during the Shah’s regime. Her sisters were both killed, her older sister Nargez by the Savak (the security police of the Shah)in 1975, and Massoumeh was killed by the mullahs regime in 1982, she was pregnant at the time. Maryam Rajavi was running for a seat in the parliament in 1980 but was a victim of an election fraud by the mullahs, a conduct the mullahs have continued up until this years election.

In 1993, during its plenary session, the National Council of Resistance of Iran, a coalition whose members include a number of Iranian opposition organizations and prominent personalities, elected Mrs. Rajavi as the President-elect for the period of transitioning power to the Iranian people. In these days we celebrate the anniversary of the election. 

As the president-elect of the NCRI Mrs. Rajavi has mounted an extraordinary political, social, cultural and ideological challenge to the ruling mullahs in Iran. Under her leadership, women of the resistance have obtained equality to men. Many women in the NCRI hold key positions in the organization and Half of the NCRI members are women. All of this has been made possible under the rule of Maryam Rajavi.

Maryam Rajavi president-elect of Iranian resistance

The very fact that the NCRI elected a female president has been a major problem for the mullahs in Tehran, they do not recognize women as equal persons compared to men. In the eyes of the mullahs regime, women are worth half of that of a man, and a woman must obey her husband, she can not do anything without the approval of her husband. 

Mrs. Rajavi has published 3 books on the subject of women’s role in Islam “Islam, women and equality.”  “Women, the force for change.”  And “Women against fundamentalism”. 
As early as in 1994, in a speech in Oslo City Hall, Mrs. Rajavi warned about the octopus of the religious tyranny and Islamic fundamentalism whose heart beats in Tehran. 
In  December 2004, at a speech in EU parliament, she proposed the third option for Iran. The two first was to compromise with the mullahs and the second was overthrowing of the mullahs by a foreign war, none of these options are optimal so she proposed a third option where the change in Iran comes from the people and the Iranian resistance. 
Mrs. Rajavi has become the beacon of hope for all Iranians that are working for a free and democratic Iran, the people of Iran know that under the leadership of Mrs. Rajavi this can be the future Iran, but they also know that an overthrow of the mullahs is a must. And the Iranian people know that Mrs. Rajavi will lead them well towards freedom. 

Newt Gingrich: The National Council of Resistance of Iran has a tremendous potential

21.10.17
By Zohair Ahmad
On October 20th, 2017 during a National Press Club Luncheon entitled New US policy: The way forward. Gingrich delivered a powerful speech where he praised President Trump’s decision to decertify the JCPOA nuclear deal and condemning the Iranian regime and its ideological arm, the IRGC. 

Newt Gingrich speaks in National Press Club

He stated that in his opinion the President made the right decision regarding the JCPOA, the very fact that he did not recertify the JCPOA show that the President is on the right path. He did not break out of the agreement. But he communicated that the agreement was vulnerable. 
Regarding the JCPOA, the former house spokesman noted that this is in the end about a dictatorship which defined in its very constitution that it is a revolutionary regime with global aspirations. He added that this is about a regime which just three weeks ago when parliament passed a defense bill chanted “Death to America”.  Gingrich described the regime as a dictatorship with the façade of democracy, he added that it would be in the best interest of the US to find a way to replace the dictatorship.

A briefing with Newt Gingrich, the former US house spokesman

Gingrich expressed his support for the National Council of Resistance of Iran, the NCRI. He stated that the NCRI has been the best source of information on the Iranian nuclear program. He added that the NCRI President-Elect Maryam Rajavi has done an amazing job of leading an organization through a very long, very difficult period. He expressed hope that at some point in the near future that Mrs. Rajavi would be invited to the United States and to have both the chance to meet with American leaders in Washington, but also to tour across the country. He added that Mrs. Rajavi is one example of a symbol of resistance to the dictatorship that would have a huge impact across the country. 
Gingrich concluded his speech by expressing his “strategic optimism” for Iran, he stated that we have an enormous amount of work ahead of us, but he thinks it is doable and the tide of history is with freedom, we will get stronger and they will get weaker he said. 
We have high hopes that the American President will be firm on his change of policy regarding the dictatorial regime of Iran and that he will show his support for the will of the Iranian people, a regime change. Only then can we bring the armed conflicts in the middle east to an end. It is a known fact that the Iranian resistance will remove the nuclear facilities from Iranian soil entirely, they are aspiring for a nuclear-free Iran. So the best solution to the Iranian nuclear threat would be to remove the mullahs from power and to insert a democratically elected government.  

The horrific truth about the 1988 massacre of political prisoners in Iran

18.10.17
By Zohair Ahmad
It has become common knowledge that during the summer of 1988 the clerical regime murdered more than 30 000 political prisoners in the most brutal fashion. The UN special rapporteur Asma Jahangir mentioned the massacre in her rapport to the UN when she addressed the human rights situation in Iran this year. There has also been requested that the UN should assemble an inquiry committee to investigate the 1988 massacre.

Action in France in memorial for 1988 massacre victims

The audio tapes that were revealed by the late Ayatollah Montazeri’s son leave no doubt that Khomeini’s death Fatwa was a crime against humanity and must be dealt with accordingly. The fatwa about killing members and supporters of the PMOI was a crime against humanity and all the people that had a role in implementing this decree were involved in a crime against humanity. 

It is no secret that the same people that were involved in these killings are the same people that are now at the helm of the Islamic Republic of Iran and they are also involved in the suppression and destruction of different sectors of Iranian society. 
It is clear that the culprits behind the 1988 massacre will continue to abuse human rights until they are faced with a judge and a jury and are tried for this hideous crime. The first step will be to acknowledge the 1988 massacre, the second step will be to start an inquiry to reveal the extent of this crime, the third step is to seek justice for the 30 000 victims of this horrific crime. The very fact that everyone that had any connection with the PMOI was murdered, not even unborn babies were spared, they got killed with their mothers. Also, children were reported killed during this killing spree by the regime. Youngest victim we know about was 13 years old. The list of victims that were killed during the summer of 1988 might never be completed since the regime is doing whatever they can to cover this up, they have even resorted to demolishing the mass graves of the victims in an effort to destroy vital evidence of the crime. 
We, therefore, urge you all to join us in our request to the UN that the 1988 massacre must be mentioned as a human rights violation and that an independent inquiry committee must be appointed by the UN in an effort to seek justice for the thousands of victims that perished under this massacre.  

Iranian people protest the regimes plundering

16.10.17
By Zohair Ahmad
For the past 3 weeks, the people of Iran has conducted a 24-hour sit-down to protest the regimes plundering of their assets. The protesters are no longer afraid of the police and their slogan for the protests are “Shame on you #Rouhani “. There are videos of the protests spread all over the internet so the regime’s censorship agencies have failed in their strategy of trying to isolate the Iranian people from the rest of the world. It has been a long-term strategy of the regime to cut the Iranian society’s connections with the rest of the world but people are inventive in their ways of getting the messages out to the rest of the world.

 The Iranian wealth has been plundered from the people and have ended up in the pockets of the mullahs or have been used to monger war I Syria, Iraq and Yemen. This conduct has made the “Persian lion” angry, the mullahs are getting richer at the expense of the people and that is not acceptable. Many of the protesters have not been paid their lawful salaries and people are starving due to the rise in poverty that the regime is the main cause of. 
 The Iranian people show the regime exactly what they think of the regime and there is no doubt that the Iranian people want a regime change in the near future. We have seen during the presidential (S)- election that people are no longer playing along with the regime's games and made it very clear that their preferred president was the NCRI President-Elect Mrs. Maryam Rajavi. Posters all over Iran brings testimony to this wish from the people. 
And during the second half of the year, we can see a significant rise in protests all across the country.  This is a clear sign of the beginning of the end for the clerical regime. People are letting the regime know that enough is enough, they will rather die standing than living their lives on their knees. The proud people of Iran are showing the mullahs that they stand tall and will never yield. 
 The only solution to the plundering and the poverty are a regime change, only when NCRI and the Iranian people are in charge of Iran will there be peace and democracy. The NCRI has pledged to establish a social security system that takes care of the children, the old and the disabled, in the future Iran no one will starve or be homeless. The government will be working to make lives better for the average Iranian, not like it is now, just the mullahs and their families are not starving. 
And it is this future Iran that the people are protesting for, they want a democratically elected President and they want basic human rights and above all they want freedom. 

What impact will Trump’s decertification of the JCPOA have on the Iranian regime?

 A few days ago Trump was addressing the JCPOA and all its flaws. He made it very clear that the days of appeasement of the Iranian regime is over and done with. He made it clear that the United States will make sure that Iran never acquires a nuclear weapon. He also pointed out that the IRGC’s activities must be stopped at any cost.
 He further stated that the suffering of the regime’s longest suffering victims, its own people must come to an end. Trump claimed that if the nuclear deal had not been signed in 2015 the Iranian regime as we know it would cease to exist. The American President acknowledged the criminal actions of the regime and that steps would be taken accordingly.

Maryam Rajavi welcomed new US strategy for Iran

 The President-elect of the NCRI, Mrs. Maryam Rajavi welcomed the decision from the American President as a good step in the right direction. She added that a firm policy towards the regime is long overdue, however, the ultimate solution is the overthrow of the regime and the establishment of freedom and democracy in Iran by the Iranian people and its resistance.

 She stated that the appeasement policy towards Iran regime has been the one thing standing in the way of a regime change in Iran.  Mrs. Rajavi welcomed the designation of the IRGC as a terrorist entity under executive order 13224 and described it as an inevitable, necessary step for regional and global peace and security. She added that the IRGC is the prime means of suppression, execution, and torture in Iran, spreading terrorism throughout the world, warmongering and massacres in the region.  Mrs. Rajavi added some practical steps in the new US policy against the Iranian regime:
 -The regime’s crimes and particularly the 1988 massacre of 30 000 prisoners must be referred to the UN Security Council and the criminals must be brought to justice.
  -The clerical regime, the IRGC, and its mercenary militias must be expelled from Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Afghanistan, and Yemen. And they must be prevented from shipping arms and dispatching forces to these countries.
 -In view of its support for terrorism and continued human rights abuses, the Iranian regime must be denied access to international banking systems.
  - And the previous UN Security Council resolutions on the clerical regime’s nuclear weapons project, ban on nuclear enrichment, as well as free and unconditional inspections of military and non-military centers must be implemented.  Only time will tell how the middle east puzzle will look like in a few years but one thing is certain, the Iranian people and its resistance will not rest until Iran is a free and democratic Iran. The Mullahs will no longer rule the oppressed Iranian people and the country will prosper and grow once again. 

How does Iran sponsor global terrorism with IRGC?

In a short but very informative video, we can see how Iran has been training terrorists in Iran and dispatching them across the globe. Iran is the very reason ISIS came to be. Even the United States Government, in their annual report on terrorism 2016, referred to Iran as the world’s foremost state sponsor of terrorism. They also state in their report that Iran is, in fact, employing foreign nationals.
But how does Iran pull that off? We need not look any further than the IRGC’s extraterritorial arm, the Quds force, they are involved in terrorist activities all around the globe, not only in the Middle East area.

The history behind the IRGC is that the force was established to preserve the power of the clerical dictatorship of the regime. The IRGC is ensuring that by committing terror against its own people. The IRGC is also the main force that ensures the regime's pursuit of a nuclear weapon.

Iranian teachers cry for freedom and justice

As the world teachers day are approaching it is disturbing to see all the gruesome news from Iran. It is a paradox that the richest region in Iran does not have enough teachers for their schools. 40% of the schools do not have teachers.

And the regime's crimes against teachers and students continues. The former director-general of Teachers’ Trade Association, Esmail Abdi is on a hunger strike in prison, another teacher from Gilan has been sent into exile for singing in art class. The human rights violations against Iranian teachers and students are increasing and are most likely to rise even more under the mullahs, the mullahs have effectively destroyed the Iranian educational system and they are not going to rectify their errors anytime soon.

 The protests across the country are a clear sign of the discontent of the people, not only teachers and students but the general Iranian population. 

Teachers are protesting to get their salaries and their fund back but this is dangerous, many teachers have been arrested and tortured or sent in exile, this must stop if the regime does not follow the human rights bill they must resign from power. This inhumane anti-social regime has no place in 2017.
