The
Islamic Republic, who has implemented an undeclared martial law,
shutting down the Internet, killing hundreds and arresting thousands
of protesters, claims that the protests are over. But the very nature
of these recent crimes shows that the revolution to overthrow the
Islamic regime must and will continue. The Islamic Republic is a
state of plunder, robbery, corruption, reaction, and crime and should
be done away with.
The masses of deprived and exasperated people, the
workers, teachers, retirees, women and the youth of this country are
determined to dispel the Islamic nightmare and to do so they continue
to protest boldly and in spite of the crimes of the regime’s armed
mercenaries.
The
people do not want to live below the poverty line and under the rule
of the capitalist mafia. The Iranian people do not want to live under
the yoke of the thieves and the murderers. The Iranian people do not
want insecurity, reactionism and superstition rule over their lives.
The
recent protests began over an increase in the price of petrol, but as
in the revolutionary uprisings of the 2009 summer and the 2017
winter, the slogans of “Down with the Dictator” and “Down with
the Islamic Republic” soon dominated the protests. There were
clashes with the regime’s mercenaries everywhere. People took
control of neighbourhoods and did not allow the regime’s
mercenaries to enter.
The
day will come soon when the revolutionary people will sweep away the
entirety of the regime together with its judiciary, legislature,
police, Revolutionary Guards, paramilitary Basij, its religious
seminaries and the totality of the Islamic collusion. The Islamic
Republic has confronted the people with tanks, prisons and its
criminals; the people will respond with nationwide strikes and
protests. The overthrow of this despicable and reactionary regime is
inevitable.
The struggle against the Islamic Republic continues in
many areas and cities; nationwide strikes and protests will be the
extension of this struggle and will continue until the Islamic
Republic is finally eliminated. The countdown for the toppling of the
Islamic Republic has begun.
Long
live the humane revolution for a humane society!
Long
live the Socialist Republic!
