We begin tonight’s edition of A Window to the Fatherland with Dr. Alireza Nourizadeh reading one of his poems from the book of his collected works.
Dr Alireza Nourizadeh:
Today is the anniversary of the birth of Reza Shah, the founder of the Pahlavi dynasty.
As Iranian protestors were shouting his name on the streets of Iran in 2017 and praising his soul as the builder of the new Iran, his mummified body was found under the rubbles of his mausoleum that had been bulldozed by the Islamic republic regime forty years ago.
This week in London there will be a gathering where our compatriots will pay tributes to Reza Shah and his great service to our country.
In Algeria its regime has heard the voice of the people and avoided a revolution. But in Iran the regime rejected the voice of our people during the Green Revolution and crack downed on them and put its leaders in house arrest. Ten years on the regime is still scared of even allowing these sick and elderly leaders go free and the country is still in the same turmoil that had been predicted by them.
The grand ayatollah Sistani has long refused to meet with top leaders of the Iranian regime in his residence in Iraq.
However, during his trip to Iraq Hassan Rouhani managed to see Sistani where the grand ayatollah made his views about the regime’s interference in the Iraqi affairs very clear to Rouhani.
It is reported that ayatollah Sistani has told Rouhani that the time to suppress your people in the name of Islam has long come to an end and that the Iranian regime must respect Iraq’s independence and stop supporting its militia proxies causing disunity among Iraq’s national armed forces.
