I want to do that today by briefly examining the MEK and NCRI efforts against the regime in Tehran across three different domains.<\/p>\n<p>First, let\u2019s look at the situation inside Iran. We see a regime that is brittle and insecure. Consider this. The morality police are now wearing bulletproof vests when they\u2019re on the streets in Iran. Why is that? A regime that fears its own people and will not let them speak freely, will not let them vote in a fair and open election.<\/p>\n<p>A regime that lacks all legitimacy. At the same time, we see a democratic resistance movement inside Iran that is strong, widespread, and growing. Their personal courage is inspiring. The trends here are positive, moving in the right direction.<\/p>\n<p>Second, what\u2019s happening in the battle outside Iran? Outside Iran, the regime, its allies, and its proxies continue to spread misinformation. Academics repeat and spread these lies. The <a href=\"https:\/\/english.mojahedin.org\/about-iranian-opposition-pmoi-mek\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">MEK<\/a>, NCRI, and their friends are making some progress in countering these perceptions, but we need to do more. We need to showcase Madam Rajavi, as we see her. An inspiring, committed, passionate, and democratic leader. More has to be done here to win more friends and allies around the world.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_62421\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-62421\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Former-U.S.-Ambassador-Mitchell-Reiss-2.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-62421\" src=\"https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Former-U.S.-Ambassador-Mitchell-Reiss-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"563\" onerror=\"this.src='https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/wp-content\/themes\/hello-elementor\/images\/broken-image-placeholder.gif';this.srcset='https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/wp-content\/themes\/hello-elementor\/images\/broken-image-placeholder.gif';\" srcset=\"https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Former-U.S.-Ambassador-Mitchell-Reiss-2.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Former-U.S.-Ambassador-Mitchell-Reiss-2-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Former-U.S.-Ambassador-Mitchell-Reiss-2-768x432.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-62421\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Former US Ambassador Mitchell Reiss<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Let me turn to the third battlefield, the battle of ideas. What ideas do the mullahs in Tehran have to offer? They\u2019re intellectually bankrupt. They can\u2019t deliver the basic functions of every government. They can\u2019t deliver prosperity to the Iranian people. The economy is failing. Inflation is high. Unemployment is high, especially among young people.<\/p>\n<p>The mullahs also cannot deliver justice to the Iranian people. The justice system is arbitrary and corrupt. Iran today is a country where democrats and human rights advocates sit in jails, while criminals are on the police force and in the government.<\/p>\n<p>The mullahs cannot deliver security to the Iranian people. In fact, they keep themselves in power by repressing the people, controlling what they read, what they say, and even what they wear. The regime\u2019s only contributions to the world these days are violence and terror.<\/p>\n<p>Now, let\u2019s compare this record of repression with the vision articulated by Madam Rajavi. The battle of ideas begins with her Ten-Point Plan for a free and democratic Iran. It\u2019s a model of governance with respect for individual rights and human dignity. On this battlefield of ideas, you are not just winning, you\u2019ve already won. You\u2019ve already won.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_62422\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-62422\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Former-U.S.-Ambassador-Mitchell-Reiss-3.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-62422\" src=\"https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Former-U.S.-Ambassador-Mitchell-Reiss-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"563\" onerror=\"this.src='https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/wp-content\/themes\/hello-elementor\/images\/broken-image-placeholder.gif';this.srcset='https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/wp-content\/themes\/hello-elementor\/images\/broken-image-placeholder.gif';\" srcset=\"https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Former-U.S.-Ambassador-Mitchell-Reiss-3.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Former-U.S.-Ambassador-Mitchell-Reiss-3-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Former-U.S.-Ambassador-Mitchell-Reiss-3-768x432.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-62422\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Former US Ambassador Mitchell Reiss<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>On this battlefield of ideas, the mullahs in Tehran are completely unarmed.
