“Poor night owls, poor reactionaries! They do not know whom they are up against—those who have rendered both the Shah and the Sheikh obsolete, those who have moved beyond the massacre of their political prisoners.”

“Learning from the bitter experiences of the pioneers of the Constitutional Revolution has now led to raising awareness and deepening the Resistance movement’s red lines with the anti-human enemy and its allies.”

“The red-hot and fiery dividing line between the people’s front and the anti-people’s front—that is, between the people and those opposed to the people—is the only real, necessary, and genuine dividing line in the political arena.”

“As in the past 60 years, our struggle against the theocracy and the monarchy for freedom and independence will continue until the victory of the democratic revolution and the establishment of a democratic republic.”

“Neither Shah nor mullahs—the only democratic, national, patriotic, and revolutionary policy under the present historical circumstances.”

“The Iranian people and freedom-seekers have consistently given the same answer: Death to the oppressor, be it the Shah or the Supreme Leader.”

“The theocratic dictatorship will not withstand the uprising and organized resistance.”

“No matter what schemes or crimes the mullahs and their affiliates resort to, they will not be able to undermine the steadfastness of the Iranian people.”

“It is a fundamental principle that the Iranian regime will never abandon arrests and executions, its systematic violation of human rights, nuclear bomb-making, war, and terrorism.”

“With these executions, the regime only strengthens the resolve of rebellious youth to overthrow this blood-soaked regime.”

“The religious dictatorship seeks to prevent the eruption of the people’s anger through the repeated executions of young Mojahedin and brave Iranian rebels.”

“One of the regime’s levers for confronting the uprising and Resistance is giving space to a fabricated alternative centered around the remnants of the Shah’s dictatorship.”

“The Third Option rejects both the path of religious despotism and the path of dependency, and opens the way toward genuine freedom and independence for Iran.”

“It is a fundamental principle that the Iranian regime will never abandon arrests and executions, its systematic violation of human rights, nuclear bomb-making, war, and terrorism.”
