@KamalaHarris A regime change in Iran was absolutely needed! My people have been struggling and murdered for years. Our beautiful country was turned from a leader and mainstream to garbage and treated like 3rd class citizens. No wonder the American people including myself didn’t trust you
ما قوم و خویش هم هستیم و خانواده ما، خانواده بزرگ ایران است. ما متعهدیم در یک ایران یکپارچه و دموکراتیک، در سایه حاکمیت قانون و پرچم شیروخورشید، به هرگونه تبعیضی پایان دهیم و آزادیهای فردی و برابری شهروندان در برابر قانون را تضمین کنیم. ما برای آزادی و امنیت ایران ایستادهایم.
An Egyptian muslim man visits Iran during Ramadan and is shocked to find out he is the only one fasting.
He was blow away by Iranians casually eating throughout the day and moving on with their lives without a care for Islam.
By the end he admits Iran is not a muslim country.
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.
In the last couple of days, amidst the events in Iran, there are a lot of non-Iranian accounts – some paid mouths and some shy Islamic Republic lovers like the Palestinian leftist crowd – bashing the Shah. Let's expose some of these narratives:
1- The Shah was not a dictator – he was a parliamentary king under the Mashroteh (Constitutional Monarchy) system, one of the biggest achievements in Iranian history, equivalent to America's Founding Fathers
2- He gave women the right to vote before Switzerland – Iranian women voted in 1963; Swiss women couldn't until 1971
3- He gave women divorce rights, child custody rights, and raised the marriage age through the Family Protection Law – and he did this despite the Islamic clergy and religious networks fighting him tooth and nail every step of the way
4- He transformed Iran from a WWII-invaded (1941), famine-stricken country into a nation that major world powers owed money to by 1979 – in less than 40 years
5- He co-founded OPEC (1960) and gave oil-producing nations control over their own resources and pricing
6- He started Iran's civilian nuclear program through diplomacy and negotiation – with no sanctions, no conflicts, and without making either the East or West feel threatened
7- He gave Iran international prestige through the 2,500-year celebration of the Persian Empire (1971) – the same ceremony critics call "too expensive" actually increased Iran's tourism revenue from $45 million in 1971 to $152 million by 1976, and made the Iranian passport one of the most powerful in the world
8- He ended a centuries-old feudal system through the White Revolution (1963) – took land from the landlords who had exploited farmers for generations and redistributed it to the people who actually worked it
9- He made education free, expanded access to schools, and sent thousands of students abroad on full government scholarships including living expenses – and even when many of those students protested against him from abroad, he never cut their funding
10- He built world-class universities – Sharif University, expanded Tehran University, Pahlavi University (now Shiraz University), and opened a Harvard-affiliated branch in Iran
11- He built a modern healthcare system – hospitals, clinics, and medical infrastructure across the country
12- He created the Knowledge Corps, Health Corps, and Development Corps – instead of wasting time in traditional army service, university graduates served in rural areas to fight illiteracy, provide healthcare, and develop infrastructure in small towns that had no schools or clinics
13- He established retirement and pension plans for workers
14- He built Iran's steel and iron industries, automobile manufacturing, and petrochemical plants – when the West refused to share steel technology, he turned to the USSR and got it done anyway, showing how dynamic and internationally flexible he was
15- He built stadiums, highways, dams, and railways still in use today
16- He expanded the Trans-Iranian Railway
Iranians now know what a mistake the 1979 revolution was. Many of the revolutionaries have verbalized and written about their mistake, and some have apologized to the Pahlavi family
even former MEK members who escaped the cult.
others like Mohsen Makhmalbaf, the world-renowned filmmaker, and Shirin Ebadi, the Nobel Peace Prize winner, are among those who have acknowledged this.
Do not be surprised why Iran is going back to its glory days.

Great thinkers like Hegel, Nietzsche, and even Voltaire recognized Zoroastrianism’s profound impact on humanity.
This ancient religion is the true soul of Iranian civilisation.
It deserves your attention too.
هممیهنانم،
امروز میخواهم تصویر روشنتری از آنچه برای به زیر کشیدن این رژیم لازم و ضروری است، با شما در میان بگذارم. سخن من به ویژه با مردم تهران است که با شجاعت خود، دور تازه خیزش ملی را آغاز کردند.
جمهوری اسلامی میکوشد از شکلگیری تجمعات در تهران جلوگیری کند؛ زیرا بهخوبی میداند که تسخیر خیابانهای تهران و دیگر کلانشهرها، روند سقوط آن را بهطور جدی تسریع میکند.
برای غلبه بر سرکوب رژیم، یک راه پیشِ روی ما قرار دارد: حضور همزمان و میلیونی مردم در سراسر شهر، و همزمان، ایجاد راهبندان در محورهای کلیدی و جادههای اصلی.
برای تحقق این امر، نخست باید همه بر ترسمان غلبه کنیم و بدانیم که اگر خیابانها را تسخیر کنیم، رژیم به سرعت، توان و اراده سرکوب را از دست خواهد داد.
راه حل این است که در قالب گروههای کوچک و منسجم از دوستان و اعضای خانواده، به نزدیکترین خیابان محل سکونت خود بروید، یکدیگر را پیدا کنید، و سپس دست در دست هم به سوی خیابانهای مرکزی شهر حرکت کنید.
با اطمینان میگویم که با شکلگیری سیل جمعیت میلیونی، نیروهای سرکوب رژیم توان ایستادگی نخواهند داشت. بسیاری از آنان عقبنشینی خواهند کرد و شماری نیز به مردم خواهند پیوست.
تسخیر خیابانهای تهران و کلانشهرها با حضور میلیونی مردم، گامی حیاتی، و مکمل دلاوریهای مردم است که شجاعانه در شهرهای کوچکتر در مقابل نیروهای سرکوب ایستادهاند.
از همه شما میخواهم این پیام را با دوستان خود به اشتراک بگذارید و برای چنین رویداد بزرگی آماده شوید.
ایران را با هم پس میگیریم و دوباره میسازیم.
As the world welcomes the New Year, the dawn of a new era in Iran is upon us. My brave compatriots are on the streets in cities and towns across our country—fighting for their freedom, risking their lives. The current regime has reached the end of the road. It stands at its most fragile: weak, deeply divided, and unable to suppress the courage of a rising nation. The growing protests show this year will be the definitive moment for change.
To the international community: I call upon you to stand with the people of Iran not only in word but in action. Peace in the Middle East and stability across the world depend on a free Iran. Unlike the 46 years of chaos and terror this regime has brought, the new, democratic Iran I seek to forge will usher in an era of prosperity and security.
The tide of history is turning. I invite you not only to witness the birth of a new Iran, but to stand by our side as we achieve it and to work with us to build a legacy of lasting peace.
🚨 BREAKING: Iran's exiled Shah and National Leader, Reza Shah Pahlavi II, urges the world: "The tide of history is turning. I invite you not only to witness the birth of a new Iran, but to stand by our side as we achieve it and to work with us to build a legacy of lasting peace"
In his final interview in 1980, the Shah is asked: “In 50 years, how will future Iranians judge you?”
Shah: “If they read history they will see, what it was before my father, what it was when I took over, and what it was when I left.”
Free Iran. 🦁☀️
