Previous Next 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. 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.

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. Mehrdad Khansari: The removal (or sidelining) of Ayatollah Khamenei has created a situation in which, if our nation is vigilant... 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. 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. Is public dissatisfaction with the government a "historical repetition"? Exclusive interview with Mehrdad Khansari Mehrdad Khansari: Our country, at the time when Mohammad Reza Shah came to the throne, was a poor country. 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? What is the biggest weakness of the Islamic Republic? Exclusive interview with Mehrdad Khansari Mehrdad Khansari: The biggest weakness of the Islamic Republic is the lack of development and the creation of public dissatisfaction. The Islamic Republic has made extensive use of the experiences of "1957". The skill he had in construction, he did not have in "crisis management". Brigadier General of the Guards Seyyed Majid Mousavi, commander of the IRGC Aerospace Force, while appreciating the people's presence in the squares for 100 nights... The members of the force command office and the producer of this video are apparently unaware of the picture of the founding leader of the Islamic Republic, which is a legal requirement. 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: Fundamental rights have always come into conflict with the ideological foundations of the Islamic Republic. We are in an emergency situation in which the law is not observed. Is the Islamic Republic in an "emergency" condition? Hossein Bayat responds. Hossein Bayat: When the leader of the Islamic Republic is assassinated in the first second of the war, it means we are naturally in an emergency situation. نمایش بیشتر Most Read Memories of Akbar Hashemi - February 20, 2000 - Meeting with Abdullah Jasbi and Concerns About Election Results Movie / Where is Commander Morteza Talaie?
