“Honoring the memory of the martyrs in 60 years of relentless struggle against the Shah and the mullahs with boundless sacrifice.”

“The essence of the ‘baby Shah’ program and his booklet in one word: dictatorship and dependence.”

“Religious fascism and monarchist fascism, and the denial of the crimes of the Shah, the mullahs, SAVAK, and the IRGC intelligence, are crimes.”

“The black coup of August 19, 1953, and the daydreams of restoring the Shah’s rule with dictatorship and dependence — this time there is a resistance that will not allow the uprising and revolution of the Iranian people and the blood shed in Baluchistan and all over Iran to be stolen.”

“Neither Shah nor mullahs — a democratic republic!”

“This regime does not stop executing, torturing, and oppressing women.”

“The only way to salvation is to rise up, overthrow the regime, and establish democracy and justice.”

“No matter how many executions you carry out, the Baloch cannot be ignored.”

“The solution is regime change by the people of Iran and their Resistance movement.”

“The people and history of Iran curse the mullahs’ and Shah regimes.”

“The Third Option draws a clear line with both the Shah and the Sheikh for freedom and independence.”

“Death to the oppressor, whether it is the Shah or the Supreme Leader (Mullah).”
