He emphasized that they instill more fear in the regime than any other government worldwide, including powerful entities like the U.S. and European governments. The reason behind this fear is their representation of the Iranian people and their immediate threat to the regime\u2019s survival.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This reality is evident through the regime\u2019s desperate attempts to discredit the MEK through propaganda and fake news. They also resort to threatening politicians and legislators who support the MEK and NCRI, as well as plotting acts of terrorism against the Iranian Resistance and its supporters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Senator Lieberman pointed out that the regime\u2019s substantial financial resources used to attack the NCRI and the <a href=\"https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/peoples-mojahedin-pmoi-mek-iran\/\">MEK <\/a>could be better spent improving the quality of life for the people of Iran.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Former US Senator Joseph Lieberman:<br>There is no doubt that the tide of history is moving in Iran toward freedom, toward the Resistance, toward the <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/NCRI?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#NCRI<\/a> and the <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/MEK?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#MEK<\/a>, and against the tyranny of the mullahs in <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Iran?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Iran<\/a>. <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/FreeIran2023?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#FreeIran2023<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/OurChoiceMaryamRajavi?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#OurChoiceMaryamRajavi<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/5RHMwgvWSz\">pic.twitter.com\/5RHMwgvWSz<\/a><\/p>\u2014 Iran Freedom (@4FreedominIran) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/4FreedominIran\/status\/1678755256555978753?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">July 11, 2023<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The regime\u2019s fear of the Iranian Resistance stems from the movement\u2019s deep roots in Iran\u2019s history, spanning decades of struggle for freedom and democracy. The sacrifices made by the members of the MEK have transformed the movement into an indomitable force, resilient against the regime\u2019s numerous schemes aimed at annihilating it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The regime has long recognized that the MEK and the organized resistance movement pose its primary threat. Forty-three years ago, before the regime initiated its full-scale crackdown on the MEK, its founder, Ruhollah Khomeini, explicitly stated, \u201cOur enemy is not in the U.S., not in the USSR, not in Kurdistan, but right here in Tehran, in front of our eyes.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, it is evident today that the Iranian Resistance is stronger than ever, while the regime is at its weakest. The Former U.S. National Security Advisor, speaking at the Free Iran 2023 summit, acknowledged the regime\u2019s deteriorating position and emphasized the need for the international community to collaborate with the organized Resistance of Iran to exploit this weakness and dismantle the regime from within.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">10,000 MEK-affiliated Resistance Units in <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Iran?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Iran<\/a> send messages to Free Iran World Summit 2023: Onward to a Democratic Republic, voicing support for <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Maryam_Rajavi?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@Maryam_Rajavi<\/a>'s  Ten-point Plan for a free, democratic, secular republic in <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Iran?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Iran<\/a>. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/fLGe4wrHB5\">pic.twitter.com\/fLGe4wrHB5<\/a><\/p>\u2014 Ali Safavi (@amsafavi) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/amsafavi\/status\/1676856404945035264?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">July 6, 2023<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Over the years, the regime has made extensive efforts to create a false impression of power balance between itself and the people and their resistance movement. Deceptive tactics, including the promotion of fake alternatives and the manipulation of domestic and foreign lobbies, have been employed to sway public opinion in favor of the regime or to discredit the NCRI and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/pmoi-mek\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">MEK<\/a>. These endeavors aim to maintain the regime by suggesting that there is no viable alternative to the mullahs\u2019 rule and that regime change in Iran is not feasible, urging the people of Iran and the world to engage with factions within the regime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As the former U.S. National Security Advisor, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/news\/iran-resistance\/former-us-national-security-advisor-john-bolton-world-should-work-with-organized-resistance-to-bring-irans-regime-down\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">John Bolton<\/a>, stated in his speech at the Free Iran 2023 World Summit, the recent wave of protests that erupted throughout Iran in September demonstrated the resolute determination of millions of Iranians for change. The Iranian people are drawing closer to their ultimate goal of establishing a free and democratic republic, prompting increasingly frantic reactions from the regime. Most recently, the regime threatened Italy over a visit by NCRI president-elect <a href=\"https:\/\/www.maryam-rajavi.com\/en\/biography\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Maryam Rajavi<\/a> and her <a href=\"https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/articles\/2023\/07\/the-ncri-president-elect-mrs-maryam-rajavi-addresses-the-italian-parliament\/48008\/\">meeting with Italian lawmakers<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nonetheless, these escalating efforts by the regime prove more futile than ever as the people and their organized resistance movement continue to gain momentum. These reactions only highlight the regime\u2019s fear and affirm that real change will emanate from the people themselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Free Iran World Summit 2023, Highlights\u2013July 1, 2023\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Y3LQW-0XZpw?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>During his address at the Free Iran 2023 World Summit, Joseph Lieberman, former U.S. Senator, and Vice Presidential candidate conveyed the significance of the NCRI, MEK, and resistance fighters in Tehran.
