The Death Knell of Dictatorship Rings in Iran!

It is commonly believed that a dictator dies suddenly before the fall of his authoritarian regime. In Iran, we have long witnessed the signs of this scene. Khamenei today lives in the nightmare of death before the moment of "collapse" of his dictatorial regime arrives, as he knows full well that his downfall at the hands of the Iranian people is inevitable, and that the Iranian people categorically reject this fascist regime. We witnessed his predecessor, Khomeini, in 1988, when the voices of the armed resistance echoed, chanting "Today is Mehran, tomorrow is Tehran." He was apprehensive of the ramifications of this slogan, and a year later, he mourned deeply until he passed away!
Today, numerous indicators suggest that the fall of the Syrian dictatorship has accelerated the downfall of the Velayat-e Faqih regime in Iran, as the relationship between these two regimes has been close and historical, according to the statements of the leaders of both dictatorships. With the collapse of what is called the "axis of resistance" and the decline of the Iranian regime’s strategic depth in Syria, a state of anxiety and turmoil has engulfed Khamenei and his leaders.
In his speech on December 11 of this year, Khamenei attempted to whimsically downplay the implications of this strategic shift for his followers through a speech full of inaccuracies to lift their waning morale. He acknowledged that the ruling regime's entourage was dominated by "negativity and frustration." His foreign minister explicitly admitted that Khamenei and his regime were surprised by the rapid changes in Syria and the utter failure of the Iranian regime's proxy forces, as well as the Syrian army. (Donyaye Eghtesad Newspaper – December 8, 2024).
While he described his proxy forces in this speech as "steadfast and strong," he claimed that his regime is powerful and will become stronger. However, behind these claims, one can sense the bitterness of anxiety over the imminent fall of his regime in his words about "the poison of negativity." Khamenei stated, "Recession can sometimes be more dangerous than the events themselves." The fear of the imminent collapse of the Iranian authoritarian regime is a reality that increases day by day.
Khamenei also referenced an explosion that occurred on February 22, 2006, at the shrine of the tenth and eleventh Shiite Imams in Samarra, Iraq, which happened similarly to the explosion of the eighth Imam's shrine in Mashhad on June 20, 1994. General Casey, the former commander of the multinational forces in Iraq, stated that investigations proved that the Iranian regime and its agents in Iraq were behind this explosion.
Thus, Khamenei, through his explicit threat to any dissenting voice within the country, seeks to hide the ramifications of these defeats. He says, "If anyone speaks in a way that undermines the people's determination, that is a crime and must be prosecuted." These words indicate a more rapid collapse than that of Assad's dictatorship in Syria. The fall of Bashar al-Assad's dictatorship clearly indicates that the bells of "great change" in Iran and the Middle East have begun to ring.
The crisis of the Velayat-e Faqih dictatorship's collapse has now become an unprecedented reality surrounding this regime, which has imposed itself on the Iranian people for over four decades. It has resorted to various means to solicit support for its survival, starting from appeasement policies with the Velayat-e Faqih dictatorship on both international and regional fronts, to its mercenaries, both Iranian and non-Iranian, who are now striving to distance themselves from it.
However, just as Western appeasers failed to save Assad's dictatorial regime in Syria, it is unlikely that they will be able to save the Velayat-e Faqih regime from falling. History has proven that peoples are capable of overcoming dictatorship, and this inevitable truth accelerates day by day. Is there any power that can save this fascist regime from downfall or prevent the Iranian people from achieving freedom and democracy? The answer to this question is a resounding "No! Absolutely not!" for every fair-minded person.
Today, the Iranian regime faces severe crises threatening its survival. The Iranian society is undergoing a new explosion of public anger against the government, as policies of threats, torture, killing, and executions have not succeeded in stifling the people's urge to rise against the regime. There is an organized resistance within Iran, whose resistance units are increasing day by day and spreading across Iranian cities, and the scope of public anger against the Velayat-e Faqih regime is expanding. The strategic depth of the Velayat-e Faqih regime in the Middle East has collapsed, and now not just the eyes are directed towards toppling the Velayat-e Faqih regime
