Dear sisters and
brothers,
brothers,
The
fascist regime of velayat-e-faqih has set occupation of Iraq by the slogan
"Occupation of Jerusalem through Karbala" at the core of its policies
since three decades ago. Occupation of Jerusalem was the on-credit part of the
slogan, but occupation of Karbala was the cash part of it. The outcome of
occupation and export of fundamentalism policy for the Iranian people was the
eight year war which left 1 million casualties, 2 million handicapped and
injured, and over a thousand billion dollars of loss, only on Iran’s side.

authors have testified, it has turned into the main occupier today.

Four
years ago for the first time, Maryam Rajavi, President-elect of the Iranian
resistance for the period of transferring sovereignty to the people of Iran,
warned against the threat of occupation of Iraq by the Iranian regime and
described it a hundred times more dangerous than its nuclear threat for the
people of Iran, Iraq and the region and for the international community.
Today, everybody witness this danger in Iraq’s streets and the people of Iraq
feel it at their homes with all their bodies…. "But woe to those
whose hearts are hardened."

This is something that
neither any patriotic and democratic force, nor any anti-fascist and
anti-dictatorship current or element in Iran and Iraq can accept; particularly
when velayat-e-faqih is armed with nuclear weapon and is showing teeth and
claws from Diyala to Gaza, from Beirut and Sana’a to Basra, Baghdad and Kabul.
Therefore, all those who find the solution in the quick withdrawal of U.S.
forces in this specific situation, end up surrendering Iraq to the
velayat-e-faqih fascism anyway.

– There are others who find the

from finding a specific answer and solution. In this regard, the U.S.
Secretary of State told Wall Street Journal: "when people say civil war it
drives me a little bit crazy because, you know, it’s not like Iraqi Shia and
Sunnis are running down the streets killing each other because they’re Sunnis
and Shias. These are organized gangs and death squads…."

It is not hidden to
anybody that the Iranian regime is behind the death squads. Although they try

The
problem at issue is the confrontation and struggle between two major
alternatives in Iraq, especially in the current situation: the alternative of
the mullahs ruling Iran versus the Iraqi alternative; that is the alternative
of the fascist regime of velayat-e-faqih with its networks, mercenaries and
backers versus Iraqi democratic and anti-fascist alternative together with all
democratic and patriotic currents, groups, parties and personalities , and
their allies in Arabic and international arena.

Because
of this, the main political lineup in Iraq is between democratic forces (with a
variety of tendencies and thoughts) versus the currents that are affiliated
with the Iranian regime. This situation is the consequence of specific
geopolitics of these two countries that has made the demarcations and relations
with the religious dictatorship in Iran as the main criteria and the red line
for the lineup of political forces in Iraq. Democracy in Iraq and Democracy in
Iran, in this geopolitical situation and in this historic juncture, are
correlated and guarantee each other.

Meanwhile,
the access of the velayat-e-faqih regime to the nuclear weapon creates a much

"In the nuclear
matter the important thing in general is that we should use all our
instruments. We should well understand what the U.S. is following as a strategy
and prevent happening what they want. We have to use our several power zones.
One is the Shiite civilization zone, another one is the Islamic civilization
zone and the other is the Iranian civilization, each of which has components
that could be helpful. Iraq is part of the Shiite and Islamic civilization.
Regarding the nuclear issue the Americans make obstacles on Iran’s path in the
IAEA and keep us in dispute with the IAEA. Whereas we must make the Americans
understand that other issues exist too such as the Iraq issue which we are its
players. The Europeans’ and the U.S. strategy is that Iran should not have

in the negotiations not to let their strategy be substantiated. Dialogue is
some sort of tactic; we must negotiate, but we should know what the negotiation
is for. They exert pressure on you to bury yourself alive with your hands.
Should we yield to it, that would be like committing suicide in fear of
death." (Dec. 6, 2004)

the people of Iraq in their historic declaration mentioned: "Iran’s rulers

Usually,
two options are put forward in answer to this question; one is compromise,

subjugation of this regime, and the other is the regime change through military
force. But, the feasible and genuine solution is neither appeasement and
intercourse, nor military invasion.

"As Mrs. Maryam

" However, in Iraq: "The solution and the only encouraging prospect
for neutralizing these threats pass through eviction of the Iranian regime from
Iraq and recognition of the status of the PMOI which is the counterbalance to
the Iranian regime’s interventions. Similarly, their disarmament upset the
strategic balance in this sensitive region of the world in favor of the Iranian

Why
negotiation and intercourse with the velayat-e-faqih regime is futile?
negotiation and intercourse with the velayat-e-faqih regime is futile?
The
reason is that democracy is the only solution vis-à-vis fascism, dictatorship
and extremism. Negotiation and intercourse with this regime are only stalling
and giving time to it. Three decades of experience with this regime has proven
that policies called as "constructive dialogue" or "critical
dialogue" have been only to the benefit of this regime and has provided it
opportunity to get closer to nuclear bomb and to increase the range of its
missiles up to Europe. Internally, it has given chance to the most ferocious
factions of the regime to get the upper hand and get more militarized, such
that today the IRGC have gained most of power levers.

the ideological and political anti-thesis, and the most effective social weight
before the rule of velayat-e-faqih, and at the same time the first target of
widespread misinformation campaign by this regime.

The
Iraqi people are witnessing that the Iranian regime considers the PMOI such a
strong obstacle for its meddling in Iraq that, contrary to all international
conventions and laws, it cannot tolerate even their restricted and besieged
presence in a desert of Iraq. This is the monster’s incurable vulnerability and
an indication of democratic change in Iran by the Iranian people and
resistance.

The
Final Choice
Final Choice
Therefore,
the options are not limited to war on one side, and compromise and surrender to
the mullahs on the other side; there is another choice too. 15 years ago, in
June, 1992, the majority of U.S. Congress emphasized on another choice and
solution. Also afterwards, the majority of Congress stressed on this same
choice together with their colleagues in the European parliaments 4 more times.

"The spread of
fundamentalism in the Islamic world is an official policy of this religious
dictatorship ruling Iran, intended to realize its dreams of expansionism.
Iran’s rulers’ openly declared inspirations for the republics of the former
Soviet Union, their export of fundamentalism to Algeria, Sudan, Tunisia, Egypt,
Jordan, and Turkey, and their campaign to acquire nuclear weapons have set off
alarm bells. This situation requires an active approach to the ominous
phenomenon of fundamentalism which will prevent the Iranian regime from taking

profound popular and religious roots within Iran’s people are the best
impediment to the Iranian regime’s abuse of popular religious sentiments.

Unfortunately
in later years, the terrorist designation of the PMOI, bombing, disarming and
blocking the largest Iranian opposition force in Iraqi soil unsettled the
strategic balance with the Iranian regime in this part of the world and freed
the hands of the velayat-e-faqih regime in suppression inside Iran and in

Amazing
demonizing and misinformation campaign
demonizing and misinformation campaign
For
keeping this same option unseen and to blockade it, the religious fascism has
launched an amazing demonizing and misinformation campaign against the main
Iranian opposition force; ironically this is done by a regime which is the
supporter and central banker of terrorism in today’s world, and has so far been
condemned by the U.N. General Assembly and Human Rights Commission for 53 times
for severe violence of human rights and execution of 120 thousand of Iranian
people’s offspring; a regime that has no limits in demagogism, deception and
craftiness.

installations of this regime in Natanz and Arak, and warned that the regime’s
claim that Iraq’s WMDs were hidden in the PMOI’s camps in Iraq was only a lie
to divert the attentions from its own secret activities. Even before this, the

Imam Reza’s shrine and killing and mutilation of Christian priests by the

to divert the attentions from its own secret activities. Even before this, the
vali-e-faqih of the regime had attributed to the PMOI, the explosion in the
Imam Reza’s shrine and killing and mutilation of Christian priests by the
mullahs’ intelligence system.
Big
lies, as Goebbels’ method, is a known fascist method which is disguised as
religion in the mullahs’ regime and has evolved to continuous demonizing and
preemptive garbling in order to shed the light on the opposite side and
continue its own job in the dark angle, and tag any movement of the opponent as
"conspiracy "!

innocent Diyala people, and while it is a long time that the Iranian regime’s
link to terrorist bands of this province has been revealed, as usual, the

international community has asked the Iraqi government to prosecute and arrest
the spies and the commanders of terrorist Qods Force, there are people who
commit such conspiracies and allegations (against the PMOI) to show their
loyalty to the wicked regime of the mullahs, (whereas) today you can’t find any
noble and patriotic Iraqi individual who does not know that whatever terrorism
and insecurity that exists in Iraq has a mere source, cause and commander
which is the mullahs’ regime ruling Iran and its unleashed meddling in all
Iraqi internal affairs through its elements and associated parties who have
infiltrated in all Iraqi military, security and disciplinary organs as well as
the parliament and the government. They are stooges of this regime for pursuing
conspiracies in Iraq to impose even more limitations on the PMOI."

a continuous chain of allegations and dissemination of baseless accusations

But,
almost nobody could be found in Diyala and all over Iraq who does not know that
the ongoing unrest and terrorism in this part of Iraq has been created only and
only by the associates of the Iranian regime who have aggressed the rights of
the people of this province in various ways by dispatching groups of militias.

These
baseless allegations are at a time that since four years ago we have

repeatedly asked the Iraqi officials and international assemblies the
vindication of their least humanitarian rights…

Now
those who are deprived of the least communication and transportation facilities
and the right to exit from their bases and are constantly under terrorist
threats, instead of being supported by the governmental and legal organs, are
subject to unfair accusations by government officials who seem to be bound to
the Iranian government’s interests and needs more than anything else."

What
should be done?
should be done?
The
first reality is the substantial weakness and the very friable situation of a
regime that has no capacity for negotiation, deal, change of behavior and
retreat from its known positions. It is a regime that pretends to be powerful
and is claiming domination over the Middle East and the Islamic world, is in
fact living its phase of dissolution and downfall. It has imposed itself to the
history for nearly three decades and it now finds itself engulfed with no
chance of survival if it is not to acquire nuclear weapons and devour Iraq.
That is why it will not relinquish nuclear bomb and Iraq, and takes the heavy
and deadly toll from the people of Iraq and Iran everyday. Causing dispute and
instigating religious strife are the known methods of this regime. Last year,
Time magazine cited many Iraqi leaders that explosion of Samarrah shrine had
been carried out in cooperation with Iran’s intelligence service.

I
wish negotiations and deals with this regime could bear fruit; but giving up
export of fundamentalism and terrorism and giving up nuclear bomb would
directly lead to abatement of suppression and to the breakage of repression
talisman and swarming of the people to the streets that would make the regime
collapse. But, the velayat-e-faqih fascism is not willing to, as it has said,
commit suicide in fear of death.

That
is why the people of Iraq in their historic declaration have presented the
eviction of this regime and recognition of the PMOI status as the
counterweight, which of course necessitates the unity and unification of
democratic and nationalist and antifascist forces. Solidarity Congress of Iraqi
People and Salvation Front for Diyala are extremely valuable examples and
endeavors in this path." Say: ’I give you only one admonition, that
you stand before Allah either two by two, or one by one"
