The clerical leadership poses a serious challenge to the establishment of democracy in Iran. The movement championed by the NCRI and the PMOI has called for human rights and human dignity. The NCRI president-elect\u2019s 10-point plan opens a gateway to democracy. It calls for abolition of the death penalty, gender equality, and the rule of law and justice as the foundation of the state.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"20120101_135054\" class=\" size-full wp-image-44301\" style=\"margin-left: auto;margin-right: auto\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2015\/10\/20120101_135054.JPG\" alt=\"20120101_135054\" width=\"671\" height=\"503\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/20120101_135054.JPG 671w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/20120101_135054-300x225.JPG 300w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/20120101_135054-560x420.JPG 560w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/20120101_135054-80x60.JPG 80w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/20120101_135054-160x120.JPG 160w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/20120101_135054-265x198.JPG 265w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/20120101_135054-530x396.JPG 530w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 671px) 100vw, 671px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"2015-10-10_18-04-26\" class=\" size-full wp-image-44302\" style=\"margin-left: auto;margin-right: auto\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2015\/10\/2015-10-10_18-04-26.png\" alt=\"2015-10-10_18-04-26\" width=\"683\" height=\"411\" \/><\/p>\n<p>1710 &#8211; Rama Yade, former French Minister for Human Rights, said the flaw in the July 14 nuclear deal between the major world powers and the Iranian regime is that it ignores the human rights abuses by the regime.

The suffering of people concerned me and fighting this criminal regime and ending this suffering became my goal.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"400\">I was arrested in 2008 and I was condemned to five years in prison in Evin and Gohardasht.<\/span>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"400\">When I was arrested, they took me directly to the dreaded 209 ward and I was locked up in solitary confinement twice for a total of six months.<\/span>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"400\">The solitary confinement is a place that you hear nothing but the gong of death and the regime uses it to break the will of the prisoner. Just in this condition, the henchman demands that you appear before television and to say lies about your beliefs.<\/span>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"400\">The greatest lesson that I learned in the solitary confinement was that you have to fight every second of it and this is the secret to the victory of the prisoner.<\/span>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"400\">After the hard time I spent incommunicado, they removed me from Ward 209. I was first transferred to the general ward in Evin and then to Gohardasht prison in the city of Karaj.<\/span>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"400\">In Evin and Gohardasht I was in the same cell as heroic martyrs Ali Saremi, Farzad Kamangar, Farhad Vakeily, Jafar Kazemi, Mohammadali Haj Aghaii, Masour Radpour, Mohsen Dogmechi and Shahrokh Zamani.<\/span>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"400\">The memory of those martyrs is with me all the time.<\/span>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"400\">The day I was freed from Gohardasht prison, when I was bidding farewell to my cellmates, I pledged to be their voice who have been wronged, as well as the voice of the Iranian people. So, I quickly traveled the distance from Gohardasht prison to the resistance bases for liberty.<\/span>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"400\">What the suffering people of Iran and the political prisoners are saying to the international community is this:<\/span>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"400\">It is scarcely enough to just condemn this regime in words.

All your dreams and your colorful wishes; to ride a motorcycle that was my biggest dream, to exercise Parkour and gymnastics, and to study my favorite field which is physics.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"400\">However, what I had left behind in Iran would not let go of me. I found myself in a dilemma: should I follow my dreams or should I choose the path of resistance to bring into being the dreams of all the children that are captive in Iran, such as the dreams of my dear friend and other girls like her?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"400\">&#8230;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"400\">I understood that I cannot just think about my own dreams. My colorful dreams are just a small part of my life. I owe it to my family, to the prisoners, to my martyred uncles, and ultimately to my struggling father; because I am free now.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"400\">When the Iranian girls have so many dreams that look so far away, to pursue my own dreams would be selfish. And that was how I forwent my small interests, just like thousands of Ashrafis.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"400\">My big dream is to see the happiness of children so that they never have to pass through the tunnel of Gohardasht.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"400\">To make true the dream of girl petty sellers or the small boys that sell omens in our neighborhood.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"400\">&#8230;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"400\">Here today, in front of everyone, I pledge to travel the path of my martyred aunt and uncle and to bring about the world of love to everyone, without any expectations for myself.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"400\">Now that I am among all of you who work for freedom, I can hear the echo of my father\u2019s call who said: Paria! I have drunk the pure wine that you have not even smelled!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"400\">From here, I say to all those resistive prisoners that I used to see every week from behind the cabin windows that I have learned from all of you that perseverance and resistance is something that no one can take away from you.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p>1630 &#8211; Addressing the people of Iran, Pumla Makaziwe &#8220;Maki&#8221; Mandela, daughter of Nelson Mandela, said: &#8220;Do not lose hope.
