Speculation about the possibility of regime change only accelerated during the second week of October when workers in the oil industry <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.iranintl.com\/en\/202210106515\" rel=\"noopener\">staked strikes<\/a> specifically to express solidarity with the women and girls leading street protests across the country.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">The current uprising represents an opportunity for the Iranian people to reclaim the democratic ambitions that underlay public support for the shah\u2019s ouster more than 40 years ago. That connection is highlighted in slogans that explicitly condemn the tyranny both of today and of yesterday, via slogans like, \u201cDown with the oppressor, be it the shah or the ayatollah.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">The oppression that Iranians have suffered under the Iranian regime has unquestionably been worse than that which they suffered under the shah\u2019s regime. But the ongoing protests leave no doubt that those people are looking forward and anticipating the establishment of a truly democratic system, which reflects the principles and shared interests of Western nations and their closest existing allies.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">A clear plan for that outcome has been outlined by the President-elect of the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI), <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.maryam-rajavi.com\/en\/biography\" rel=\"noopener\">Mrs. Maryam Rajavi<\/a>. And over the past five years, the NCRI\u2019s main constituent group, the People\u2019s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI\/MEK), has been tirelessly promoting the idea of a viable, democratic alternative through its network of \u201cResistance Units\u201d inside Iran.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">It was those very <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/english.mojahedin.org\/iranian-resistance-units\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Resistance Units<\/a> that played a leading role in an ongoing series of uprisings at the end of 2017, which prompted the regime\u2019s supreme leader Ali Khamenei to begrudgingly admit that the MEK was leading the anti-regime actions and had \u201cplanned for months\u201d to popularize uniquely anti-regime slogans and calls for regime change. Those slogans remain in circulation even now and continue to define the organized opposition movement in the context of the current uprising.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">The mullahs, in their demonizing campaigns, have always tried to portray the MEK as an unpopular \u201ccult\u201d because they understand that there is boundless support for a democratic alternative.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">The past five years\u2019 uprisings have successively dismantled this feature of the current regime\u2019s propaganda, making it increasingly apparent that the MEK and the NCRI represent the political will of the Iranian people as a whole. It is for the sake of their democratic vision that the people now chant, \u201cWe will fight, we will die, and we will take back Iran.\u201d This, too, is a slogan that the MEK and <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/news\/iran-resistance\/resistance-units-iran-societys-response-to-mullahs-rule-of-terror\/\" rel=\"noopener\">its Resistance Units<\/a> have used for years. Its widespread repetition is proof positive that the success of the current uprising will inevitably lead to the implementation of Maryam Rajavi\u2019s <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/maryam-rajavis-ten-point-plan-for-future-iran\/\" rel=\"noopener\">10-point plan<\/a> for the country\u2019s free, democratic future.<\/p>\n<div class=\"lyte-wrapper\" title=\"MEK Resistance Units send 5000 messages to Free Iran 2022 campaign\" style=\"width:853px;max-width:100%;margin:5px;\"><div class=\"lyMe\" id=\"WYL_XO0yuCkQsUQ\" itemprop=\"video\" itemscope itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/VideoObject\"><div><meta itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\" content=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-youtube-lyte\/lyteCache.php?origThumbUrl=https%3A%2F%2Fi.ytimg.com%2Fvi%2FXO0yuCkQsUQ%2Fhqdefault.jpg\" \/><meta itemprop=\"embedURL\" content=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/XO0yuCkQsUQ\" \/><meta itemprop=\"duration\" content=\"PT5M43S\" \/><meta itemprop=\"uploadDate\" content=\"2022-07-29T13:08:24Z\" \/><\/div><div id=\"lyte_XO0yuCkQsUQ\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-youtube-lyte\/lyteCache.php?origThumbUrl=https%3A%2F%2Fi.ytimg.com%2Fvi%2FXO0yuCkQsUQ%2Fhqdefault.jpg\" class=\"pL\"><div class=\"tC\"><div class=\"tT\" itemprop=\"name\">MEK Resistance Units send 5000 messages to Free Iran 2022 campaign<\/div><\/div><div class=\"play\"><\/div><div class=\"ctrl\"><div class=\"Lctrl\"><\/div><div class=\"Rctrl\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><noscript><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/XO0yuCkQsUQ\" rel=\"nofollow\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-youtube-lyte\/lyteCache.php?origThumbUrl=https%3A%2F%2Fi.ytimg.com%2Fvi%2FXO0yuCkQsUQ%2F0.jpg\" alt=\"MEK Resistance Units send 5000 messages to Free Iran 2022 campaign\" width=\"853\" height=\"460\" \/><br \/>Watch this video on YouTube<\/a><\/noscript><meta itemprop=\"description\" content=\"https:\/\/english.mojahedin.org\/article\/mek-resistance-units-and-the-power-of-irans-democratic-alternative\/ As part of the Free Iran 2022 campaign, members of Resistance Units sent 5,000 video messages, supporting the Iranian opposition\u2019s yearly convention and reiterating their resolve to overthrow the theocratic rule of the mullahs in Iran.

There can be no further justification for appeasing that regime or overlooking that opposition. The international community should therefore take immediate steps to isolate the embattled Iranian regime further and to begin dealing directly with the people via the Resistance movement, which is a true reflection of their political will. The first step is recognizing the Iranian people\u2019s right to self-defense in the face of the regime\u2019s brutality and their right to Resistance.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Iran has been mired in protests for more than one month, and there is no reason to believe the nationwide uprising will be ending anytime soon.
