Future looks bright for Iran

Sid Ahmed Ghozali
This decades-long struggle has seen the Iranian people sacrifice over 120,000 members of the Iranian opposition People's Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI/MEK) members and supporters. This year also marks the 30th anniversary of the summer 1988 massacre of over 30,000 political prisoners, mostly linked to the PMOI/MEK. These innocent victims sacrificed their all for freedom and democracy, and their legacy is beginning to bear fruit as the Iranian people are rising ever more against the regime.

June 20, 2018 - Despite four decades of domestic crackdown and fueling foreign wars, scenes viewed from inside Iran in the past six months prove this dissatisfied nation is rising against the mullahs’ actions in bold fashion and setting their fears aside.
The Iranian people are braving all odds, posing serious challenges for the ruling regime and taking to the streets to encounter the entire mullah apparatus, according to a recent Townhallpiece written by former Algerian prime minister Sid Ahmed Ghozali.
This decades-long struggle has seen the Iranian people sacrifice over 120,000 members of the Iranian opposition People's Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI/MEK) members and supporters. This year also marks the 30th anniversary of the summer 1988 massacre of over 30,000 political prisoners, mostly linked to the PMOI/MEK. These innocent victims sacrificed their all for freedom and democracy, and their legacy is beginning to bear fruit as the Iranian people are rising ever more against the regime.
While claiming otherwise, the Iranian regime has failed in dozens of attempts to eliminate the PMOI/MEK and all other forms of dissent and opposition. This comes after years of “massacres, executions, psychological warfare, and disinformation campaigns against the organized opposition,” according to Ghozali.
The PMOI/MEK is proving to be active and influential as ever, working with its vast network inside the country and making the nationwide protests we have witnessed in the Dec/Jan uprising, Kazerun and truckers’ strike possible.
The PMOI/MEK’s activities are not limited to inside Iran. Various forums and sessions are held across the globe in numerous parliaments and other institutions, holding discussions with policymakers and other influential figures to shed light on the reality of Iran and the mullahs’ regime, and provide the solutions presented by their resistance movement.
At the helm of the Iranian opposition is Maryam Rajavi, President of the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI), a parliament-in-exile enjoying vast support on both side of the Atlantic, 
 the Middle East and even North Africa.
The NCRI has roots inside Iran and the Iranian Diaspora, seen in the numerous rallies and the annual 
convention held each year in Paris and attended by more than 100,000 people.
Furthermore, hundreds of politicians from five continents come to this convention, voicing their support for a better future in Iran through regime change. This year’s event is scheduled for June 30th and considering the recent developments inside Iran and across the region, and with the United States setting aside its highly controversial and failed appeasement policy, this year’s convention is already of grave political importance.
True change is coming to Iran and the people are proving they will bring this transition by courageously taking it to the regime and its crackdown machine. With the mullahs set aside, Iran is bound to welcome democratic change through the efforts of its people and organized resistance movement.
Iran will become an “oasis of freedom and democracy, a center of security, and brotherhood, serving the Iranian people’s interests building a peaceful friendship with its neighbors and all countries of the world.”

A Viable Democratic Alternative to the Iranian Regime

Maryam Rajavi  By  Ken Blackwell   One could easily argue that Iran’s ruling theocracy is facing the greatest internal threat to its rule since the 1980s. In the beginning of this year, the country was rocked by a mass uprising. The chain of protests was a major step forward for the domestic Resistance movement in the sense that it extracted political activism from farmers and the rural poor, despite the fact that these groups had long been thought to tolerate or even support the clerical regime. The December-to-January uprising was comprised of protests in upwards of 140 cities and towns spanning the entire country. And this diversity has remained on display in the ensuing months, as activist networks and entire populations continue to organize more localized demonstrations, in keeping with the call-to-action issued in March by   Maryam Rajavi , the president of the NationalCouncil of Resistance of Iran (NCRI) , a coalition headed by the principle Ira...
