The clerical regime’s foundation is built on the principle of velayat-e-faqih (guardianship of the Ayatollah), which grants absolute power to the Supreme Leader. This stands in direct opposition to the people’s aspirations for democracy and self-determination, rendering the regime rigid and incapable of reform. This medieval DNA and self righteous / fascist orientation is the regime’s core and the driving force behind its brutal human rights record, support for international terrorism, and its drive to build a nuclear bomb.  

The publications included below offer a window into our community’s efforts and the work done by the broader Iranian resistance to expose regime’s many vulnerabilities, while also highlighting the Iranian resistance’s capabilities – which we determine to be indispensable for addressing the crisis.
