The New Year is exactly in\naccordance with the spring equinox, which symbolizes the end of the gloom and coldness of\nwinter. Welcoming the spring, which heralds a new era of prosperity. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The expression \u2018Nowruz\u2019, which Iranian use for this day, means \u2018the new day\u2019 and that is the reason that the related\nceremonies too are of importance to Iranians, they are symbols of change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In old times\npeople believed that, the combination of four main elements has formed the nature: fire, soil,\nwater, and air. Among ancient Iranians, the fire had a specific place and was respected, due to its\npurifying character and the fact that it never gets polluted.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The New Year celebration starts with the \u2018Feast of fire\u2019, which in Persian is called \u2018<a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Chaharshanbe_Suri\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Chaharshanbe Suri (opens in a new tab)\">Chaharshanbe Suri<\/a>\u2019, during which people set up the fire and leap over it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As they people\nleap over fire they sing songs in which they call on the purity of fire,\neradicating the impurities in it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u00a0\u2018Feast of Fire\u2019 is a deep-rooted, beautiful ceremony,\nat the right time of a natural change.\nIt must be cherished because it\nstrengthens the solidarity and affection\namong the Iranian nation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But since the anti-monarchy revolution\ntook place the \u2018Feast of Fire\u2019 changed face too, taking a step forward as a\ntool for confronting the mullahs\u2019 dictatorship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 1979, after Khomeini hijacked the leadership of the anti-monarchy revolution of the Iranian people, he found the pure Iranian national culture in contradiction to his reactionary ideology. He looked at it as a hurdle, hindering him form establishing his desired political system based on his own fundamentalist thoughts. Therefore, from the onset, Khomeini and other clergymen close to him took an anti-nationalism stance, tried to eradicate <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Nowruz\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"the ceremonies of Nowruz (opens in a new tab)\">the ceremonies of Nowruz<\/a> and particularly the \u2018Feast of Fire\u2019. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To do that, the clerical tyranny ran a vast campaign against all the\nsymbols of the Iranian national culture and Khomeini blatantly stated: \u201cThere is a conflict of interest\nbetween nationalism and Islam (read regime\u2019s fake presentation of Islam)\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Following Khomeini, many other reactionary mullahs, like Morteza\nMotahhari, ruled against national festivals, particularly the \u2018Feast of Fire\u2019. They\nbrazenly used labels such as heathen, superstitious or even stupid regarding\nthe people who were loyal to their glorious and proud culture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>People not only did not take a blind bit of notice to the Mullahs but instead attempted to take\nadvantage of the pure national Iranian culture as a strong mean to defeat\nmullahs ideologically and\npolitically. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this way, for years, New Year festivals, have become one of the gravest challenges for the tyrannical regime ruling\nIran, and the \u2018Feast of Fire\u2019,\nhas a remarkable place in this challenge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u00a0\u2018Feast of Fire\u2019 is a\nceremony that, due to the literally fiery content of it, has always been an appropriate bedrock for\nnational solidarity and uprisings and has rapidly turned\nto an opportunity for the people to express their hatred toward the\ndictatorial regime of\nIran and its repressive forces, especially by the young people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Regime\u2019s officials admit that on each \u2018Feast of Fire\u2019 celebration,\nstreets and squares of every city and town turn to battlefields, and that, in spite of all the security forces that are on the Full Alert. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yet, this coming New Year\u2019s \u2018Feast of Fire\u2019 is more different from those in the past and the\nregime is worried about the flames of the uprising it embeds, more than before.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The regime is worried\nabout a potential danger, this year, because of more-than-a-year ceaseless uprisings and protests nation-wide.\nMullahs are fearful and feel a real and perceptible danger. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They are well aware of the call for protest and\nuprising at \u2018Feast of Fire\u2019 by <a href=\"https:\/\/english.mojahedin.org\/i\/pmoimek-calls-anti-regime-protests-irans-annual-fire-festival\">the\nMEK\/PMOI headquarter inside Iran<\/a> (MEK or the People\u2019s Mojahedin\nOrganization of Iran is the core organization of NCRI or National Council of\nResistance of Iran, the coalition of anti-regime forces).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-wordpress wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-iran-freedom\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\nhttps:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/2018\/09\/28\/resistance-units-mek-massoud-rajavi\/\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>In other words, members of the \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/2018\/09\/28\/resistance-units-mek-massoud-rajavi\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Resistance Units,\u201d a network associated to the Iranian opposition, the PMOI\/MEK, (opens in a new tab)\">Resistance Units,\u201d a network associated to the Iranian opposition, the PMOI\/MEK,<\/a> are escalating their measures by directly targeting the regime\u2019s oppressive icons such as setting fire to the entrance of a Revolutionary Guards (IRGC) or Basij base, and the images of regime founder Ruhollah Khomeini and its current Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, putting the Iran\u2019s regime in a state of fear more than ever.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u2018Feast of Fire\u2019, a nightmare of Iran\u2019s regime New Year celebration in Iran, one of the oldest in the world, are distinguished from some aspects with the other similar ceremonies in the world.
