The economic pressure that lower social classes endure is unbearable. We should be careful that they do not lose their tolerance because this could have social and security consequences [for the regime].\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Instead of helping Iran\u2019s poor people, the regime has been plundering the national wealth for funding terrorism abroad. For this reason, the Iranian people chanted during the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/iran-protests-2019-update\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">major Iran protests<\/a>\u00a0in 2019:<\/p>\n<p>Arman daily wrote: \u201cSometimes we could make political changes by making a decision but destroying society.

There is an inefficiency (lack of ambiguous plans and goals) of macro-management, which is the bedrock of all kinds of social and national challenges without prospects. Thus, we could safely say that a \u2018fundamental national issue or concern\u2019 in no way matters for politicians, officials, clergymen, and those seeking power.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>While acknowledging that the regime\u2019s officials prioritize their security and grip on power over people\u2019s problems, and calling it \u201cIran\u2019s security,\u201d Ebtekar added: \u201cThe officials\u2019 real concern should be Iran\u2019s security. It is an obvious and inevitable fact that \u2018inefficient macro-management\u2019 cannot maintain the country\u2019s security. In other words, security without efficient macro-management is an \u2018unpatriotic dream.&#8217;\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Ebtekar warned officials of the \u201cexorbitant expenses\u201d they will pay, a euphemism to describe than people\u2019s uprising. \u201cEfficiency and sustainability with old tools are impossible in the contemporary world and lead to high costs for citizens and senior management. The basis of macro-management in developed societies, unlike previous centuries, is \u2018collective wisdom\u2019. Governing without collective wisdom in the earthly and tangible world is against all human, social, natural, and celestial laws. Continuation of inefficiency will impose high costs on the system,\u201d read Ebtekar\u2019s article.<\/p>\n<p>The regime faces a restive society amid growing international isolation.<\/p>\n<p>The state-run Siasat-e Rouz (Today\u2019s Policy) referred to the new European-led joint-statement by 47 countries on the regime\u2019s human rights violations. \u201cThe EU\u2019s biased statement on human rights against Iran has been issued while political observers believe that this statement is a continuation of preparing the ground for further agreements like JCPOA [2015 Iran nuclear deal with world powers, formally known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action.] And bringing [the regime\u2019s] missile case and Tehran\u2019s regional role to the negotiating table.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis biased statement means the EU gives the green light to the United States. Of course, this alignment has already been reflected in the form of European political stances and statements on issues such as human rights, missile capability, and Iran\u2019s regional role,\u201d Siasat-e Rouz added.<\/p>\n<p>As Mrs.\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/news\/maryam-rajavi\/14237-maryam-rajavi\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Maryam Rajavi<\/a>, the Iranian opposition president-elect, recently said: \u201cSo long as the clerical regime in Iran has not been overthrown, it will not let up on executions and torture.
