Less than a week after a five-day international conference held at Ashraf 3, Albania, home to members of the main Iranian opposition movement, the People\u2019s Mojahedin, also knows as the Mujahedin-e Khalq (PMOI\/MEK), thousands of Iranian regime opponents marched in Stockholm on Saturday afternoon, chanting in support of democracy and freedom in Iran. It was one of the largest rallies held by Iranians in Sweden in recent years.<\/p>\n
Participants at meetings and rallies in Albania stressed the presence of a viable and competent alternative that stands ready to take over after the overthrow of the clerical regime. Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani talked to Fox News on Friday about reports of the takeover of a British tanker in Omani waters in the Gulf by the Iranian regime\u2019s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Cops (IRGC). He also talked in detail about the democratic alternative to the clerical regime, the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI) and the Mujahedin-e Khalq (MEK). He mentioned personal accounts and observations gleaned from Ashraf 3, stressing that they strengthen his view about the fact that the mullahs\u2019 overthrow is at hand.<\/p>\n
The regime\u2019s aggressions and adventurism in the Gulf and the seizure of a British tanker occupy global headlines. Although the fate of oil exports through the Gulf and the regime\u2019s warmongering in the region have grabbed international attention, these developments cover up the real reason behind the regime\u2019s actions and behavior.<\/p>\n
The organized resistance inside the country and the swift expansion of MEK Resistance Units in various cities are the main source of anxiety for the regime. Its leaders and officials refer to young people who \u201clead and organize protests and strikes against the \u2018system\u2019 during the days and at nights set aflame posters of (regime) officials in streets and avenues.\u201d This is what the mullahs are deadly afraid of and it is something that is echoed abroad through the Iranian exiled community\u2019s extensive protests.<\/p>\n
Organizers of the Stockholm protest, similar to previous large rallies held in Washington, Berlin and Brussels over the past several weeks, say that their action is a reflection of uprisings happening inside Iran. The flood of Iranians in Western capitals and streets shows that despite the regime\u2019s belligerence in the region and in the Persian Gulf, including its confrontation with the U.S. and other countries, the regime\u2019s fate in Tehran and other Iranian cities will be sealed through its fundamental confrontation with the Iranian people.<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
