Thank you also for your decisive action against the terrorist Iranians in expelling their ambassador and first secretary. I would ask you now in one final thing, please close the embassy in Tirana and get rid of these agents of terror.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hitler\u2019s thousand-year Reich only lasted 12 years. On that basis, the Iranian regime is well past its sell-by date. The 1979 Revolution in\u00a0Iran\u00a0which overthrew the despotic rule of the Shah was quickly hijacked by the mullahs and their psychotic figurehead, Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini. Khomeini appointed himself as God\u2019s representative on earth, changing Iranian society overnight and giving birth to what is now known as Islamic fundamentalism. Khomeini\u2019s legacy of repression and corruption has been steadfastly maintained ever since. For the past 41 years, the mullahs\u2019 revolutionary creed of radicalized Islam in reality boils down to a policy of hatred.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Founded on hatred, this theocratic fascist dictatorship has wrecked the Iranian economy, plundered the people\u2019s wealth, ruined the environment, and turned this once great nation into an international pariah. Deploying their Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corp, the IRGC, the regime\u2019s Gestapo, the mullahs have unleashed a homicidal blitz on their own population, crushing dissent, wantonly murdering and maiming thousands of peaceful protestors.\u00a0Iran\u2019s jails are bursting at the seams with political prisoners, many of them young students, male and female, arrested during the most recent nationwide uprising in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/iran-protests-2019-update\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">November 2019<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The main targets for arrest, torture, and execution are always supporters of the principal opposition movement, the People\u2019s Mojahedin of\u00a0Iran, the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/english.mojahedin.org\/about-iranian-opposition-pmoi-mek\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">PMOI<\/a>, and their families. Over the past four decades, 120,000 of its members and supporters have been executed. Dozens more have been assassinated outside of\u00a0Iran. The latest wave of arrests and hard prison sentences for\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/english.mojahedin.org\/about-iranian-opposition-pmoi-mek\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">PMOI\u00a0<\/a>supporters and their families has laid bare the mullahs\u2019 fear of the people who are now seething with rage at their criminal rulers.\u00a0Iran\u00a0has become a dangerous powder keg ready to explode.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Last week, the trial began in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/ncri-statements\/iranian-diplomat-and-three-accomplices-on-trial-for-planned-bombing-of-a-massive-rally-in-paris\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Belgium <\/a>of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/news\/iran-regimes-terrorist-diplomat-who-tried-to-bomb-mek-free-iran-gathering-imprisoned-for-third-consecutive-year\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Assadollah Assadi<\/a>, a diplomat from the Iranian Embassy in Vienna. Assadi was filmed handing over 500 grams of high explosives and a detonator to an Iranian couple from Antwerp, ordering them to bomb our great annual gathering at Villepinte near Paris in June 2018. He and his conspirators have been in jail for the past few years awaiting trial, but the question has to be asked, who gave Assadi the orders to bomb the <a href=\"https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/national-council-of-resistance-of-iran\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">NCRI <\/a>gathering? As foreign minister, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/news\/terrorism-fundamentalism\/27391-fact-sheet-record-of-mohammad-javad-zarif-foreign-minister-of-iran-s-regime\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Javad Zarif<\/a> is in charge of\u00a0Iran\u2019s army of ambassadors and diplomatic staff.

As we heard, Albanian intelligence officers uncovered a plan to detonate a bomb at a Nowruz gathering of\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/peoples-mojahedin-pmoi-mek-iran\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">PMOI\u00a0<\/a>members in Tirana. Two MOIS agents, together with the Iranian ambassador and first secretary, were expelled from the country by the Albanian Prime Minister Edi Rama. Even Zarif could not have taken the order to carry out such terror attacks without the consent and approval of Rouhani and the Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei. All of them must now be held to account, indicted for acts of terror, and tried before the International Criminal Courts. And all of the mullahs\u2019 embassies, which they use as bomb factories and launch pads for terror attacks, must be closed immediately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The terrorist attacks on the <a href=\"https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/national-council-of-resistance-of-iran\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">NCRI <\/a>and the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/peoples-mojahedin-pmoi-mek-iran\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">PMOI\u00a0<\/a>go right to the heart of the media as well. The regime is so frightened by the truth of the\u00a0PMOI\u2019s popularity inside\u00a0Iran, that it goes crazy if it sees any positive media coverage. Following last Friday\u2019s huge global gathering, Mrs. Rajavi\u2019s speech was broadcast live on\u00a0Iran\u00a0international TV. The mullahs went mad, ordering their agents and lobbyists around the world to bully TV channels. They cannot stand the thought of Mrs. Rajavi, who is respected as a leader in\u00a0Iran, to be seen or heard on television. They spewed out insults and abusive language on social media. They recognized no right for the media to decide on what they should show or who they should interview.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now disgracefully, some newspapers and TV channels like Der Spiegel, Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, and Channel 4 News, have been seduced by the regime\u2019s demonization campaign against the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/peoples-mojahedin-pmoi-mek-iran\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">PMOI<\/a>. So, I encourage the press to take their journalistic principles seriously. And as my colleague, David Jones, said earlier, we want the BBC to open its airways not to the mullahs, but to the Iranian speakers and convey the spirit of the Iranian resistance. This is what the British people and their cross-party representatives in the UK Parliament want to see happen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The time has come to pull down the curtain on this murderous regime. After 41 years of tyranny, the Iranian regime\u2019s sell-by date has expired. The mullahs and their Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei have earned their place in the trash can of history every other failed tyrant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI)\u00a0 was held a global seminar on the Iranian regime\u2019s terrorist operations during\u00a0the third day of\u00a0the\u00a0\u201cFree Iran Global Summit\u201d\u00a0on, July 20, 2020.
