- Ahead of this Saturday’s #FreeIran2018 rally in Paris, there has been a lot of
discussion about the Iranian Resistance coalition, the National Council of the
Resistance of Iran (NCRI), especially its leader Maryam Rajavi and its largest group the People’s
Mujahedin Organisation of Iran (MEK).
The Washington Times published a report, entitled “Iran:
the Alternative”, and argued that the NCRIwere
the only democratic alternative to the mullahs’ rule. Let’s look at some of
their key points.
Shaking the
Regime’s authority
The report
began by tracking the anti-regime uprising in Iran that began in late December,
quickly spreading across the whole country, and continues in Iran to this day.
These protests, in 142 cities, united the Iranian population in their anger at
the Regime’s tyranny and incompetence. They are only strengthened by the
strikes in many of Iran’s core industries, including logistics, metalworks, and
manufacturing.
The people
of Iran, infuriated by arbitrary violence, executions, a failing economy, took
to the streets. They came from every walk of life, including the working
classes and the rural communities that the Regime had long relied on for
support. The Iranian people put down their work equipment and picked up protest
signs.
This was an
important moment. It showed the world that regime change is the true desire of
the Iranian people and that the mullahs’ grip on power is fading fast.
A new
leader
The
Washington Times piece than discussed Maryam Rajavi’s ten-point plan for a Free
Iran after the fall of the mullahs, which includes the abolishment of the death
penalty, restoring democracy to Iran, and an independent judiciary system.
Maryam
Rajavi’s vision for Iran is one founded on equality and tolerance, free from
the religious oppression of the mullahs, with laws that promote gender
equality, human rights, and equal employment opportunities.
Free Iran
Rally
The
#FreeIran2018 rally, which will be held on June 30, will be attended by over
100,000 opponents of the Iranian regime, including senior figures from Europe,
Australia, and North America.
This rally
will have speeches from many NCRI members, including keynote speaker Maryam
Rajavi, and its supporters. It’s an opportunity for the Resistance to show the
world what a free and democratic Iran would look like, once the Regime is gone.
This view
may not be that far in the future, as the Iranian Resistance grows stronger and
the mullahs grow weaker by
the day. Soon, the Iranian people will live freely.
