The Iranian people across the country are opposing the regime\u2019s repressive policies and human rights abuses inside the country and warmongering and export of terrorism abroad. They are fed up with the corruption and poverty the mullahs have brought for them since the inception of the regime. They now see clearly that the only way to solve these problems is a democratic regime change in Iran by Iranian people and their organized resistance.<\/p>\n
