When it loses the people, it falls. In Raqqa, Homs, and Idlib, these cities fell within one or two hours. If we lose the people, everything will be lost.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Iran?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Iran<\/a> News: \u201cOne Day This Anger Will Overcome Fear\u201d\u2014Regime Insider Warns of Looming Revolt<a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/ciBZMcDL3u\">https:\/\/t.co\/ciBZMcDL3u<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; NCRI-FAC (@iran_policy) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/iran_policy\/status\/1907113055466475696?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">April 1, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Nikbin\u2019s statements reflect the regime\u2019s growing anxiety over its fate as the clerical dictatorship faces unprecedented economic and social challenges. He admitted that force alone cannot maintain the regime\u2019s control, cautioning, \u201cWe can\u2019t force culture through commands\u2026 if we establish laws that criminalize the entire society, we should be aware that this society will rise against us.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Allah Karam, a former thug associated with the regime\u2019s brutal crackdown on dissidents, took a hardline stance, denouncing those he labeled as traitors. \u201cThose who fought against us, like the [MEK] in Operation Eternal Light&#8230; they are not part of the nation,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">He also echoed grievances over the regime\u2019s failures to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/news\/women\/iran-regimes-internal-strife-over-mandatory-hijab-fuels-public-defiance\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">enforce mandatory hijab laws<\/a>. \u201cThe government&#8217;s failure to act on laws approved by the Guardian Council is itself a dereliction of duty. The rise of unveiled women from 4% to 20% is a direct result of this dereliction. Both the current government and the head of parliament are responsible, not only in this world but in the afterlife as well.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Iran?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Iran<\/a> News: Shargh Daily Warns of Impending \u201cBread Uprising\u201d Amidst Economic Collapse<a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/fxXKTuIfMC\">https:\/\/t.co\/fxXKTuIfMC<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; NCRI-FAC (@iran_policy) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/iran_policy\/status\/1907107551533011078?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">April 1, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The debate, held within the narrow confines of state-controlled media, exemplifies the regime\u2019s attempts to create an illusion of free speech while allowing only discussions that do not threaten its core power structure. Nikbin\u2019s remarks, however, betray a growing fear of public uprising. \u201cIf the people are dissatisfied\u2026 economically, culturally\u2026 if their minds are not convinced, they will act against us.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This rare, heated exchange between regime insiders inadvertently highlights the precarious state of Iran\u2019s clerical dictatorship. As internal divisions deepen and the regime\u2019s methods for controlling dissent come under scrutiny even by its own officials, the specter of a popular revolution looms ever closer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A staged debate aired on Iran24&rsquo;s YouTube channel on March 31, 2025, between a member of the regime&rsquo;s parliament, Javad Nikbin,
