The regime\u2019s propaganda reached the International level, giving the impression that Khamenei was going to address important issues.<\/p>\n<p>But on Friday, contrary to the regime\u2019s propaganda and the expectation of the media, Khamenei had nothing important to say. By repeating the usual lies, he merely tried to show that the establishment is still on its feet. Now, the question is why did Khamenei participate in the Friday prayers and what goal was he pursuing?<br \/>\n<br \/>https:\/\/twitter.com\/iran_policy\/status\/1218595378796384261<\/p>\n<p>In his speech, Khamenei talked about \u201ctwo eventful weeks\u201d and exposed his fear of Iranian peoples\u2019 protests and their slogans. During the past two weeks, the uprising has been the most important event in Iran. It has been the source of all the crises that the regime is engulfed in, and it has paralyzed the regime.<\/p>\n<p>After the elimination of Revolutionary Guards (IRGC)\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/news\/terrorism-fundamentalism\/26772-ncri-exclusive-revealing-irgc-s-fear-of-arbaeen-ceremony-and-its-plan-of-oppression\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Qods Force<\/a>\u00a0chief\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/news\/terrorism-fundamentalism\/27175-who-was-the-vicious-criminal-qassem-soleimani\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Qassem Soleimani<\/a>, the entire propaganda apparatus of the regime, as all dictators do, in a detailed plan, tried to assemble a large crowd for Soleimani\u2019s funeral. The plan was to show that the regime still enjoys popular support, to boost the morale of its forces on the one hand, and to get international legitimacy on the other hand. In reaction to the downing of the Ukrainian passenger jetliner and the death of\u00a0176 passengers by the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/news\/terrorism-fundamentalism\/26779-iran-s-regime-is-the-world-s-foremost-threat-to-peace-and-security\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">IRGC<\/a>, people took to the streets and ruined Khamenei\u2019s plan. The protests took place in many cities all across Iran with the main slogan of \u201cdeath to Khamenei.\u201d The protesters also tore up Qassem Soleimani\u2019s pictures. In his speech, Khamenei, without mentioning the \u201cdeath to Khamenei\u201d slogan, reacted to Soleimani\u2019s torn pictures, which indicates that this action was done extensively and widespread.<\/p>\n<p>By participating in the Friday prayer and gathering some crowds, Khamenei, intended to demonstrate a show of power. The propaganda apparatus of the regime by announcing that metro tickets are free for Friday prayer, bringing people from other cities by buses, and other initiatives tried to assemble large crowds for the Friday prayer, but the establishment was defeated in gathering large crowds, and at the same time in his speech, Khamenei demonstrated that his regime is on the verge of collapse.<\/p>\n<p>The independent observers put the number of people participated in this week\u2019s Friday prayer at 45,000 people at most, and that is why the preannounced pro-government demonstrations were canceled later.\u00a0 Furthermore, in his speech, Khamenei raised a few issues which were a reminder of Shah\u2019s speech on his last days.<\/p>\n<p>On November 5, 1978, in a speech known as \u201chearing the voice of the Revolution,\u201d the Shah, by calling the protesters \u201chopeless youth who are compelled by passion and emotion\u201d said: \u201cI ask the intellectual youth leaders to choose the principal way of struggle for the establishment of real democracy by calling on the youth for calm and order. I call on Iranian fathers and mothers who, like me, are concerned about the future of Iran and their children to guide and prevent them from participating in the unrest and anarchy, and to stop them from hurting themselves and their country based on their passion and emotion.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Similarly, Khamenei in his speech on January 17, 2020, repeated the Shah\u2019s remarks in another fashion and said: \u201cSome people, based on American and British media, are trying to abuse this sad event (downing of Ukrainian airliner by IRGC), and set the ground for forgetting the glorious funeral and the harsh revenge of the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/news\/terrorism-fundamentalism\/26779-iran-s-regime-is-the-world-s-foremost-threat-to-peace-and-security\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">IRGC<\/a>. Obviously, some are young and emotional, but others are not willing to understand and stick to the national interest.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYoung and emotional\u201d is the common code name that the Shah and Khamenei phrased for the freedom-loving protesters. The same protesters who were chanting: \u201cDeath to the oppressors, be it the Shah or the Leader.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>After that speech, everyone was convinced that the time for the rule of the Shah has come to its end. On December 15, 1978, George Ball, a member of the U.S. National Security Council and political aide to President Jimmy Carter, who visited Iran and wrote a report about the situation, said: \u201cDownfall of Shah is inevitable.\u201dThis is while a short time earlier American intelligence agencies reported that Iran &#8220;is not\u00a0in a\u00a0revolutionary or even\u00a0a\u00a0pre-revolutionary\u00a0situation.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Khamenei\u2019s attendance in the Friday prayers is indicative of the fact that the recent uprising by the college students and people of Iran, with their slogans, have hit the heart of the regime; slogans such as: \u201cSo many years of crimes, death to the Supreme Leader,\u201d \u201cCommander-in-Chief, resign, resign,\u201d \u201cWe did not give martyrs to compromise and praise the murderous leader,\u201d \u201cDeath to the dictator,\u201d \u201cKhamenei is a murderer, his rule in null and void,\u201d and \u201cKhamenei hear us, we are the people, not thugs.\u201d Khamenei has heard the people\u2019s slogans loud and clear, and it forced him to come out of his cave. Khamenei came to the Friday prayers to say, like the Shah, that he is \u201chearing the voice of the Revolution\u201d but since he is a mullah, and hypocrite, he uses reverse language to respond to the slogans of the protesters.<br \/>\n<br \/>https:\/\/twitter.com\/iran_policy\/status\/1217916340343844871<\/p>\n<p>Just as the Shah\u2019s rule, after \u201chearing the voice of the Revolution\u201d, didn\u2019t last long, after this ridiculous show, Khamenei\u2019s dictatorship will not last long either. This is no claim, but a practiced statute in the history of mankind.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Written by Staff Writer on&nbsp;19 January 2020.
