Memoirs of Akbar Hashemi – June 16, 2003
Mehrdad Khansari: Personally, I cannot support the positions that have been announced by him.
Mehrdad Khansari: The program that Reza Pahlavi announced today for the transitional period is inconsistent with his previous principles.
Has Mr. Seyyed Mehdi Khamoushi carried out these meetings and consultations as a representative of the third leader, or as the head of the Endowments and Charity Affairs Organization? Also, the visit to the Hosseiniyeh of Zanjan?

Memoirs of Akbar Hashemi – June 16, 2003
I read the reports. Last night, there were student movements in Isfahan, Tehran, Karaj, Mashhad, Bandar Abbas, Kerman, and other cities.
Mehrdad Khansari: Personally, I cannot support the positions that have been announced by him.
As a fighter Iranian, I do not want him to get involved in issues that are beyond control or that contradict the position of a constitutional monarch.
Mehrdad Khansari: The program that Reza Pahlavi announced today for the transitional period is inconsistent with his previous principles.
During the years when I was alongside Reza Pahlavi, he was a democratic individual and did not fight for the restoration of the "monarchy".
Has Mr. Seyyed Mehdi Khamoushi carried out these meetings and consultations as a representative of the third leader, or as the head of the Endowments and Charity Affairs Organization? Also, the visit to the Hosseiniyeh of Zanjan?
Mr. Babak Zanjani, greetings. There is no need to obtain permission from the prosecutor; it is sufficient for anyone who has suffered losses to file a complaint in accordance with Article 10 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, and otherwise...
According to Articles 64 and 65 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, the complaint must be submitted in writing to the competent prosecutor and must be officially declared.

Of course, relatively and superficially.
More important than "Muharram and Safar which have kept Islam alive," I often think about three things: First: the 90th to 99th minutes of any matter, phenomenon, or subject!!!
Second: even in the weakest hypothetical scenario! The continued lack of public presence of the third leader and the top military commanders, despite an understanding, agreement, or whatever other name it may have!
Mr. Abtahi, greetings. The vigilance required is much higher than what you have written, especially at the 99th minute.

Donald Trump, the President of the United States, announced the end of the war in a message and remarks, and publicly called on Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to join him in ending the attacks.
Mehrdad Khansari: In the current situation, I do not see any alternative as practical in the short term.
The Islamic Republic is not on the verge of collapse.

Mehrdad Khansari: The issue for which an agreement must be reached is the replacement of the sovereignty of Velayat (Guardianship of the Jurist) with the sovereignty of the people.
The sidelining of Ayatollah Khamenei has "discredited" (made ambiguous or tainted) the concept of Velayat (Guardianship of the Jurist).

Mehrdad Khansari: Those who came with Khomeini and seized power diminished over time, and only 15-20 percent of them remain.
All the levers of power are in the hands of this 15-20 percent, and they run the country.

Honorable representative of the Islamic Consultative Assembly, greetings. Isn't the memorandum of understanding a way to bypass the law?
Honorable representative of the Islamic Consultative Assembly, greetings. First, one must ask whether the Leader's declared red lines have changed or not?
If not, does he not exercise supervision over the observance of his own red lines? At least, he should not approve it!
Mr. Esmaeili, greetings. Do you correct the recipient of the tweet to "Aqa" (the Leader)? Because you know the ultimate decision-maker is one person.

The third Chief of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran, who was targeted in the recent attacks by the United States and Israel. How was a unit called "Intelligence-Operations" formed?
Is Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf trying to extend Gholamhossein Mohseni Ejei's term as the head of the judiciary?
Will the changes envisioned at both the headquarters and operational levels of the judiciary be implemented by the current head (of the judiciary) himself?
Mr. Malek Shariati, representative of the Islamic Consultative Assembly, unlike some others, I do not interpret your tweet as disparaging anyone's dignity.
My interpretation is that you want to express something in metaphorical language, but it must be clarified when that day will be — the day when what you are saying becomes evident.
If Seyyed Mojtaba Khamenei, as the Absolute Jurist and the Imam of the Ummah, does not publicly perform the funeral prayer over the body of the second leader of the Islamic Republic...
Or, with a weak probability, similar to how "Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei" followed the imamate of "Grand Ayatollah Golpaygani" to perform the funeral prayer for "Grand Ayatollah Khomeini"...
Is the leader of the Islamic Republic aware of this binding rule and does he supervise it? What about the new deputy (or acting head) of the Ministry of Intelligence?

Additional / Apparently two high-ranking intelligence delegations from the Islamic Republic and the United Arab Emirates met with each other.
It is expected that the very important issue of the lack of news regarding 120 Iranians residing in the United Arab Emirates since the beginning of the recent wars will reach a clear conclusion.
Mehrdad Khansari: In a situation that is neither war nor peace, the Islamic Republic is not more unstable.
Neither the Islamic Republic nor the US government wants to return to the battlefield.
Mehrdad Khansari: A foreign attack harms the work of constructive political forces and creates conditions where many people, for national reasons, stand behind the system.
The attack on Iran was against international law.
The selection of Mojtaba Khamenei as the leader of the Islamic Republic: what does it signify? An exclusive conversation with Mehrdad Khansari.

Is the current dissatisfaction of the people similar to the dissatisfaction of the people in 1979?
Mehrdad Khansari: The nature of the current dissatisfaction of the people is different from the past.
Memoirs of Akbar Hashemi - June 13, 2003
Last night, there were demonstrations at the University of Tehran dormitory and in the surrounding areas. Today, the police have been stationed inside the dormitory at the request of the Ministry of Science. Insults have been made against the country's officials, especially the Leader and the President. The US has officially announced that it supports them.
Mojtaba Khamenei and the New Architecture of Power; Will the Third Generation of the Islamic Republic Be Consolidated? A Conversation with Hassan Etemadi, Political Analyst.
It is very clear that the Islamic Republic is at one of the most sensitive historical junctures. Therefore, we are going to discuss an issue that is important for the future of Iran, and the topic of our conversation is the structure of power in Iran. We know that after the attacks that took place in recent months, and after the killing of Ayatollah Khamenei and the transfer of leadership in a very strange and extraordinary process to his son, Mojtaba Khamenei, many now believe that the Islamic Republic has entered its third generation. Although to this day, we have not seen any live voice, image, photo, or even a live signature from the new leader. Has Iran entered the era of a military-security government? And can the new architecture of power stabilize the Islamic Republic system and the nascent system of Mojtaba Khamenei, or will new crises arise?
Whether on the 1st of July this year someone else is appointed as the new head of the judiciary, or whether for the sake of expediency the current head of the judiciary is appointed to this position for another five-year term...
With the beginning of Seyyed Mojtaba Khamenei's leadership, this branch (the judiciary) is in need of structural reforms, which each of the two mentioned individuals must pursue more seriously.
In the final years of his life, Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei paid more attention to two seminary jurists, namely Ayatollahs Alireza Arafi and Mohsen Araki, with more prominent decrees (or roles).
Regarding Sheikh Alireza Arafi, of course, this position was not only more prominent but also deeper, and many pillars of the system were more coordinated with him.
Seyed Mojtaba Khamenei, the leader of the Islamic Republic, issued a condolence message following the passing of the source of emulation, Grand Ayatollah Sheikh Ishaq Fayyad.
What is very, very important to me is that the third leader, in his condolence message for a Muslim source of emulation (marja'), unlike the second leader, [acted differently] towards a more senior marja' than himself.
Mehrdad Khansari: The cause of the Shah's downfall was the dissatisfaction of the people.
The people wanted more political freedom, which was not available at that time.

Mehrdad Khansari: The Shah was a dictator politically, but he was not a brutal dictator.
The Shah intervened in two areas: matters related to foreign policy and military matters and the defense of the country.
Mehrdad Khansari: One of the differences between the rule of the Shah and the current rule is that the head of the country should not abandon his land.
During the time of the Shah, dissatisfaction could be curbed by providing financial facilities to the people.

Brigadier General (Revolutionary Guard) Ahmad Vahidi: Career background, security role, and the assassination rumor controversy
In the past 24 hours, the name Ahmad Vahidi has once again become one of the most searched names in the Persian online space. The main reason for this surge is the spread of rumors about the "assassination of Ahmad Vahidi" or the "assassination of General Vahidi."
In fact, he has not rejected it. More precisely, the plaintiffs had sought the annulment of a directive, the outcome of which was a decision by the President.
The Administrative Court of Justice initially issued an order to suspend the conclusion of this letter.
Greetings, Mr. President and head of the Supreme National Security Council. How is it that there is no information or news about around 120 Iranians whose fate in the United Arab Emirates is unknown...

What is the biggest weakness of the Islamic Republic? Exclusive interview with Mehrdad Khansari

Hossein Bayat: In such an emergency situation, there is no authorization for the government to become "self-satisfied" or "pleased with itself."
If the government continues its practice of raids, imprisonments, and house arrests, what we were worried about happening through a foreign attack will instead occur through "social collapse."

Hossein Bayat: Given the conditions in which the Islamic Republic finds itself, it cannot and does not want to be a defender of "fundamental rights."
The theoretical foundations of the Islamic Republic are fraught with conflict and contradiction.
Hossein Bayat: The discussion of "transition" is currently ruled out.
If there is to be a discussion of "transition," then the issue of "war" — which has already been defeated — must be raised again.

For years, the Islamic Republic has also limited the sources of emulation (maraje') to their country of birth or the country where they reside in its official news, such as "Ayatollah so-and-so, a source of emulation from such-and-such country"!

Reza Pahlavi, the Islamic Republic, and the War Trade — Shaghayegh Norouzi speaks frankly.
I want to speak on Abdi Media about one of the most complex and tense arenas of Iranian politics — a space between war and freedom, between the opposition and power, and between truth and the politics of commerce; about a society that has for years been suspended between anger, fear, hope, revenge, freedom, and collapse, and now stands at a point where it is simultaneously afraid of war, afraid of the continuation of the status quo, and afraid of a future of which it still has no clear image. In years when Iran is simultaneously entangled in internal crisis, external pressure, the threat of war, and the collapse of public trust, great questions remain — questions whose answers many might find important to know: Who truly speaks for Iran?
Memoirs of Akbar Hashemi – June 6, 2003

“It is unfortunate that I also saw you at this level, where you, like some others, have lowered yourself to the point of distorting reality and attacking Abdi Media with accusations.”

Marco Rubio told the U.S. Senate Foreign Relations Committee: “I think there are signs that indicate his increasingly active role at certain levels.”

Discussion about the future of the power structure, the role of security and military institutions, the future of the opposition, and even the relationship between the Islamic Republic and Iranian society has entered a new phase.

Shaqayegh Norouzi: I Do Not View Reza Pahlavi's Movement as a Revolution

Mr. Farooq Ghadumi, the head of the Palestine Liberation Organization's foreign department, came. He gave a report on the situation in Palestine and said that Yasser Arafat is restricted in his office and is not allowed to leave.
It is also known that Mr. Abutorabi stated in an interview that he had been assigned the mission of publishing that letter from the Leader of the Islamic Republic to Mr. Mashaei.
In addition, in Abdi Media, I discussed and criticized the closure of the parliament (regardless of political discussions).
I published this directive on Abdi Media while explicitly noting that I had not been able to verify its authenticity, especially since the head of the provincial Traffic Police appears to have effectively issued the directive to himself. Moreover,
in addition to the Aras Free Zone, the Anzali Free Zone is also not mentioned in the document, which makes the matter even more unusual.
