Whether or not Europe stands with us, whether or not your journalists do their jobs, whether or not your politicians demonstrate the courage to act, I will fight for my people and my country.

خطاب من به علی خامنه‌ایِ، رهبر رژیم اشغالگر ایران است: تو یک جنایتکارِ ضدایرانی هستی. نه شرافت داری نه انسانیت. دستانت به خون ده‌ها هزار ایرانی آغشته است؛ به خون کودکان؛ جوانان؛ بی‌گناهان.

تو، رژیمت، و تمام مزدورانت، برای هر قطره خونی که ریخته‌اید، پاسخ خواهید داد؛ بدون استثنا.

ما نه می‌بخشیم. نه فراموش می‌کنیم. نه عقب می‌نشینیم.

همان‌گونه که جنایتکاران نازی در نورنبرگ محاکمه و مجازات شدند، تو و هم‌دستانت نیز محاکمه و مجازات خواهید شد؛ در دادگاه ملت ایران.

پایان تو رسوایی است؛ ننگ ابدی.
هیچ جنایتی بی‌پاسخ نمی‌ماند.
نام تو ثبت شده است؛ تمام آمران، عاملان، و هم‌دستانت.
راه فراری نیست. جایی برای پنهان شدن نخواهید داشت.
قاتلان مردم ایران هیچ مصونیتی نخواهند داشت.

و شما، ملت بزرگ ایران؛
فرزندان شجاعم؛
خواهران و برادران داغدار اما استوارم:
شما تنها نیستید.
ایستادگی شما تاریخ را تغییر داده است.
شما در خط مقدم آزادی ایستاده‌اید.
و ما، از همیشه به پایان این رژیم نزدیک‌تریم.
این رژیم ترک برداشته است. قدرتش فرسوده شده. سقوطش آغاز شده است.

به خودتان ایمان داشته باشید؛ به اتحاد‌تان؛ به شجاعت‌تان؛ به بزرگی‌تان.

این رژیم دیگر نمی‌تواند ملت بیدار و برخاسته ما را خاموش کند؛ نمی‌تواند ترس را بر ایران حاکم کند.
این رژیم از شما و قدرت‌تان می‌ترسد.
ما اجازه نمی‌دهیم اندوه‌مان به ناامیدی تبدیل شود.

هم‌میهنانم،

سوگِ از دست دادن بهترین فرزندان ایران سنگین است. اما ما این سوگ را به خشم آگاهانه، و اراده‌ای شکست‌ناپذیر علیه خامنه‌ای و همه عاملان داخلی و خارجی‌اش تبدیل می‌کنیم.

آماده باشید.
لحظه‌ی بازگشت به خیابان فرا خواهد رسید: گسترده‌تر؛ قدرتمندتر؛ مصمم‌تر از همیشه؛
برای فتح تهران؛ برای بازپس‌گیری ایران.

ادامه‌ی این نبرد تا پیروزی نهایی، نه فقط یک وظیفه‌ی ملی، که عهدی است با جان‌باختگان راه آزادی و خون پاک‌شان.
نام‌شان فراموش نخواهد شد؛
نه در تاریخ؛ نه در حافظه‌ی ملی؛ نه در قلب ما.

آن روز دور نیست.
روزی که با هم جشن باز‌پس‌گیری ایران را می‌گیریم.
و با سربلندی می‌گوییم:
ایستادیم.
جنگیدیم.
و پیروز شدیم.

پاینده ایران!

The battle in Iran today is between occupation and liberation. The Iranian people have called for me to lead.

I will return to Iran.

Iran 'killed 16,500 protesters and injured more than 300,000' in brutal crackdown, report claims - as regime accused of 'genocide under cover of digital darkness' https://t.co/x5P0kUiuTe

[Iran International English @IranIntl_En]

At least 16,500 protesters have been killed and about 330,000 injured during Iran’s unrest, according to a report compiled by doctors inside the country and cited by The Sunday Times, as a near-total internet blackout has made independent verification increasingly difficult.

[Iran International English @IranIntl_En]

A former British lawmaker says Iranian authorities may have used "toxic chemical substances" during the deadliest crackdown on protests in the country's contemporary history, citing a "credible report" he has reviewed.

"People believe some kind of toxic chemical substance has been used against protestors," Bill Rammell told GB News, "causing some of the injured to lose their lives days later."

Newsweek later quoted him as saying the report came from "credible Iranian-Kurdish sources" but has not been confirmed yet.

If true, these would represent an "extraordinary" escalation in Iran’s tactics against its own citizens, the former MP said.

On January 8, a video obtained by Iran International appeared to show security forces using unconventional weapons to confront protesters in Sabzevar in eastern Iran.

The footage showed individuals wearing hazmat suits and masks designed for hazardous chemical materials, positioned on sand-colored vehicles deployed on the streets of Sabzevar.

In the video, a yellow triangular sign with a dark border—indicating a warning for hazardous materials—is visible.

Photos obtained by Iran International appear to show a sniper on the rooftop of the Isfahan municipality building aiming toward protesters during the recent nationwide uprising.

فراخوان شاهزاده رضا پهلوی برای اعتصاب، و شعار شبانه: خانه‌های ما سنگر مبارزه و ایستادگی است.

دعوت به فریاد خشم و شعارهای ملی در سراسر ایران

شنبه تا دوشنبه، ۲۷ تا ۲۹ دی، رأس ساعت ۸ شب

[Reza Pahlavi @PahlaviReza]

To all of our friends around the world,

Under the yoke of the Islamic Republic, Iran is identified in your minds with terrorism, extremism, and poverty. The real Iran is a different Iran. A beautiful, peace-loving, and flourishing Iran.

It is the Iran that existed before the Islamic Republic, and it is the Iran that will rise again from its ashes the day the Islamic Republic falls.

So let me be clear about how a free Iran will act toward its neighbors and the world, after the fall of this regime.

In security and foreign policy, Iran’s nuclear military program will end. Support for terrorist groups will cease immediately. A free Iran will work with regional and global partners to confront terrorism, organized crime, drug trafficking, and extremist Islamism.

Iran will act as a friend and a stabilizing force in the region. And it will be a responsible partner in global security.

In diplomacy, relations with the United States will be normalized and our friendship with America and her people will be restored. The State of Israel will be recognized immediately. We will pursue the expansion of the Abraham Accords into the Cyrus accords bringing together a free Iran, Israel, and the Arab world.

A new chapter will begin, grounded in mutual recognition, sovereignty, and national interest.

In energy, Iran holds some of the largest oil and gas reserves in the world. A free Iran will become a reliable energy supplier to the free world. Policy-making will be transparent. Iran’s actions will be responsible. Prices will be predictable.

In transparency and governance, Iran will adopt and enforce international standards. Money laundering will be confronted. Organized corruption will be dismantled. Public institutions will answer to the people.

In the economy, Iran is one of the world’s last great untapped markets. Our population is educated, modern, with a diaspora that connects it to the four corners of the world. A democratic Iran will open its economy to trade, investment, and innovation. And Iran will seek to invest in the world.

Opportunity will replace isolation.

This is not an abstract vision. It is a practical one. Grounded in national interest, stability, and cooperation.
To achieve this, now is the time to stand with the Iranian people. The fall of the Islamic Republic and the establishment of a secular, democratic government in Iran will not only restore dignity to my people, it will benefit the region and the world.

A free Iran will be a force for peace. For prosperity. And for partnership.

[Reza Pahlavi @PahlaviReza]

ملت عزیز ایران، هم‌وطنان شجاعم،

شما در دو هفته گذشته بویژه در چهار روز اخیر با تظاهرات میلیونی، پایه‌های رژیم نامشروع جمهوری اسلامی را به لرزه در آورده‌اید. اینک، با اتکا به پاسخ میلیونی شما به فراخوان‌های روزهای گذشته، و با مشروعیت و مقبولیتی که از شما دریافت کرده‌ام، مرحله دیگری از خیزش ملی برای سرنگونی جمهوری اسلامی و باز‌پس‌گیری ایرانِ عزیز را اعلام می‌کنم.

۱. در داخل ایران، علاوه بر تسخیر و حفظ خیابان‌های مرکزی شهرها، تمام نهادها و دستگاه‌هایی که مسئول تبلیغات دروغین رژیم و قطع ارتباطات هستند، اهداف مشروع به حساب می‌آیند. کارکنان دستگاه‌های دولتی، و نیروهای مسلح و انتظامی فرصت دارند به مردم بپیوندند و یاور ملت باشند، یا اینکه هم‌دستی با قاتلان ملت را انتخاب کنند و ننگ و نفرین ابدی ملت را برای خود بخرند.

۲. در خارج از ایران، تمامی سفارت‌خانه‌ها و کنسولگری‌های ایران، متعلق به ملت ایران است، و زمان آن رسیده که به جای پرچم ننگین جمهوری اسلامی، با پرچم ملی ایران مزین شود.

ما در آستانه بازپس‌گیری ایران عزیز از جمهوری اسلامی هستیم. خامنه‌ای و رژیمش، چندین ضربه سنگین از شما خورده‌اند و نباید به آنها مهلت تنفس دوباره بدهیم. رژیم با کمبود جدی نیروی سرکوب روبرو است و افزایش تیراندازی به سوی مردم، نه از سرِ اقتدار، بلکه ناشی از کمبود مزدور، و ترس از فروپاشی و سقوط سریعتر است. ما اجازه نخواهیم داد که این جانیان، خون جوانان ما را بیش از این بر زمین بریزند. ما به آنها فرصت نخواهیم داد. ما به عقب باز نمی‌گردیم.

آزادی ایران نزدیک است. خون‌های به‌زمین‌ریخته‌شده‌ی فرزندان جاویدنام ایران، هدایتگر ما به سوی پیروزی است. ما تنها نیستیم. کمک‌های جهانی نیز به‌زودی می‌رسد. منتظر پیام‌های بعدی من باشید. ما به‌زودی ایران عزیز را از جمهوری اسلامی پس خواهیم گرفت و در همه جای ایران، جشن آزادی و پیروزی را برپا خواهیم کرد.

[Reza Pahlavi @PahlaviReza]

My message to President @realDonaldTrump:

Mr. President, you have already forged a legacy as a man of peace. Your words of solidarity have given Iranians the strength to fight for freedom. And while Khamenei and his thugs call for "Death to America," the Iranian people are renaming streets after you. They know you have their back and will not abandon them like Obama and Biden. After the fall of this terrorist regime, they will be your best partner for peace and prosperity. Help them liberate themselves and Make Iran Great Again!

@MariaBartiromo @FoxNews

[Reza Pahlavi @PahlaviReza]

Beloved people of Iran, my courageous compatriots,

Over the past two weeks—especially in the last four days—you have shaken the foundations of the illegitimate Islamic Republic through massive, nationwide demonstrations. Now, relying on your overwhelming response to the recent calls, and with the public mandate I have received from you, I am announcing a new phase of the national uprising to overthrow the Islamic Republic and reclaim our beloved Iran.

1. Inside Iran: In addition to taking and holding the central streets of our cities, all institutions and apparatuses responsible for the regime’s propaganda and for cutting communications are to be regarded as legitimate targets. Employees of state institutions, as well as members of the armed and security forces, have a choice: stand with the people and become allies of the nation, or choose complicity with the murderers of the people—and bear the nation’s lasting shame and condemnation.

2. Outside Iran: All Iranian embassies and consulates belong to the Iranian people. The time has come for them to be adorned with Iran’s national flag, in place of the disgraceful banner of the Islamic Republic.

We stand on the threshold of reclaiming our beloved Iran from the Islamic Republic. Khamenei and his regime have already suffered several heavy blows at your hands, and we must not allow them a moment to recover. The regime faces a severe shortage of forces of repression; the increase in gunfire against the people is not a sign of strength, but of fear—fear of collapse and an accelerated downfall. We will not allow these criminals to spill any more of our young people’s blood. We will not give them that chance. We will not retreat.

Iran’s freedom is near. The blood shed by Iran’s immortal sons and daughters guides our path to toward victory. We are not alone. International support will soon arrive. Standby for my next messages. Very soon, we will reclaim our beloved Iran back from the Islamic Republic, and celebrations of freedom and victory will fill every corner of our country.

[Reza Pahlavi @PahlaviReza]

Senator Graham is right. President Trump is not Obama. His words of support for the protesters in Iran show that. Now is the time to act. The President is a man of action and a man of peace. Now, he can act to bring about the greatest peace the world has ever seen: by helping Iranians finally end this criminal regime.

The regime is weak and on its back legs. The people are ready to topple it. They do not need boots on the ground. All they need is the action of the leader of the free world. Negotiating with this criminal regime who is still threatening America and the President will not bring peace. But immediate action to support these brave protesters will save thousands of lives and bring lasting peace to the region.

That will be President Trump’s legacy.

[Sean Hannity 🇺🇸 @seanhannity]

.@PahlaviReza warns the Iranian regime is carrying out brutal massacres, saying protesters are holding on as they wait for the moment outside help finally arrives:

“The level of massacre has been unbelievable, unfortunately. The regime is showing no pity, using military machinery to shoot protesters to death. Morgues are overfilled, yet these brave kids are still in the streets. The decisive element everyone is waiting for is when the cavalry will arrive, because we can only hold the Alamo for so long. So the timeline is very critical. As the President promised, and part of the reason they are still in the streets fighting, is that they believe this President is committed to doing what he said he would.”

[Reza Pahlavi @PahlaviReza]

Mr. President, this is an urgent and immediate call for your attention, support, and action. Last night you saw the millions of brave Iranians in the streets facing down live bullets. Today, they are facing not just bullets but a total communications blackout. No Internet. No landlines.

Ali Khamenei, fearing the end of his criminal regime at the hands of the people and with the help of your powerful promise to support the protesters, has threatened the people on the streets with a brutal crack down. And he wants to use this blackout to murder these young heroes.

I have called the people to the streets to fight for their freedom and to overwhelm the security forces with sheer numbers. Last night they did that. Your threat to this criminal regime has also kept the regime’s thugs at bay. But time is of the essence. The people will be on the streets again in an hour. I am asking you to help.

You have proven and I know you are a man of peace and a man of your word. Please be prepared to intervene to help the people of Iran.
