Resonance of the "Forbidden Chants" PDF Print E-mail
Saturday, 17 November 2007
NCRI - At the heart of the religious dictatorship's declaration of war on the Iranian people, lies the mullahs' unswerving craving for the "waves of executions" and "gallows." Executions continued apace in the last few months in Tehran and other Iranian cities. The regime's main goal by the recent waves of executions remains to be the terrorizing and silencing of a resentful population.

State terrorism is thus courageously defied.

Wednesday, 14 November 2007

On October 25, 2007, the United States designated the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corp (IRGC), nine of its affiliate organizations, as well as its top commanders, as proliferators of weapons of mass destruction under the Executive Order 13382. One of the units of the IRGC, known as the Qods Force, was also designated under the Executive Order 13224, as a terrorist organization.

According to the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI), which was first to uncover more than two decades of clandestine nuclear weapons program in August 2002, the IRGC involvement with the bomb goes back two decades.

The Illusion of making peace with the mullahs PDF Print E-mail
Wednesday, 07 November 2007

NCRI - The designation by the United States of the Iranian regime's Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC), Ministry of Defense and a number of affiliated banks and officials in its blacklist was a serious policy shift vis-à-vis Tehran.

The muted reaction by the Iranian regime's leaders to this move reflected their shock and at the same time anxiety over the implications of the IRGC designation, which some believe goes beyond the consequences of the United Nations Security Council resolutions.

Sending the Right Signal to Tehran PDF Print E-mail
Saturday, 06 October 2007
Commentary by U.S. Alliance for Democratic Iran
Earlier in the week, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice told the New York Post's editorial board that a stable Iraq will act as "a block" against Iran's growing regional ambitions, whereas an unstable Iraq will serve as "bridge" for Tehran. Secretary Rice's accurate observation was reflected in the President's remarks later in the week when he told an audience in Lancaster, PA, that standing firm in Iraq would send a crucial signal to ayatollahs while chaos and timidity "would embolden Iran."
