Tajzadeh addresses the leader of the Islamic Republic: The government’s authority and people’s fear have dissipated.
Mostafa Tajzadeh, a political prisoner, wrote a letter from Evin Prison addressed to Ayatollah Khamenei.
The former Deputy Minister of Interior during Khatami’s era wrote in part of his letter to Mr. Khamenei that it should be made clear that both the government’s authority and the people’s fear have dissipated.
If citizens have so far exercised restraint and not taken to the streets in protest, it is not due to the bluster of officials.
They fear lawlessness and chaos.
Moreover, they have not yet completely lost hope that the leader might choose wisdom to preserve the system, recognize the gravity of the situation, and not endanger the country’s existence for the sake of nuclear ambitions.
That is, before it is too late, he should seek the help of collective wisdom and find a solution.
Tajzadeh continued, the leader said there would be no war, yet it led to reciprocal missile strikes with Netanyahu.
If the ‘Truthful Promise 3’ had been executed, it was not unlikely that the scope of the conflict could have become uncontrollable and led to a full-scale war. Another claim was that we do not negotiate, yet he entered into written dialogue with Trump by sending a letter and has now accepted indirect negotiations.
Now that the leader’s prophetic predictions have been proven wrong one after another,
it is time to use civil methods to compel him to abandon illusions, end stubbornness, and refrain from threatening protesting people.
He should dismantle the imprisonment and house arrest of his critics, recognize the changes desired by the majority of the nation, and comply with their demands.
He should distance himself from warmongers and sanction profiteers and strive to lift sanctions and remove the specter of war from Iran’s skies.
