❗️Important short documentary on the foreign-backed plot that sought to use armed cells & a Female figurehead to overthrow the Iranian government

The foreign-backed plan was to overthrow Iran by using small armed cells & a female figure as a symbolic leader once cities started to fall.

The plan was modeled similar to unrest in Sudan & Venezuela, and Reza Pahlavi was sidelined due to lacking support.

Bijan Kian (described as Pahlavi’s key ally) led a US/Israel-linked project since 2019 to prepare a post-overthrow framework, including drafting a constitution, funding cyber operations, and grooming a woman (Raha Parham / Nazanin Baradaran) to lead and symbolize the uprising.

The plan involved coordination with US & Israeli officials, cryptocurrency funding, cyber warfare, and seeking international recognition after a takeover.

Iran’s IRGC Intelligence monitored and penetrated the network, further details will be revealed later on.

🇮🇷/🇺🇸/🇮🇱 Iranian analyst on TV:

'What was planned in December in Washington D.C. between Trump and Netanyahu was not only a military attack, but primarily a regime-change operation through internal means, which we saw unfolding with our own eyes in the past weeks.

Since the 12-Day War in June, there had been plans to create an insurgency, or so called 'protests' inside Iran, with the aim of creating an atmosphere where the security forces lose their grip on society and potentially even lose control of a few cities in Western Iran, in Lorestan and Kurdistan—through arming local terrorist and seperatist groups.

When this stage would have been achieved, the plan was to implement external steps, such as a joint U.S.-Israeli military strike aimed at crippling the police and security apparatus, allowing the 'liberated' villages to seperate from the country and inspirng others to do the same, leading to a de-facto status of civil war.

In practice, they wanted to create a Syria 2.0 scenario in Iran, they never had any plans to install Reza Pahlavi or any other figure—he was simply an initial catalyst to get a few of his supporters on the streets to give the impression of an organic protest movement. The real goal was the Balkanization and disintegration of Iran as we know it today.

Due to the rapid and disciplined actions of the Iranian security forces, the Basij and all other defenders of the homeland, the enemy's plots were thwarted before these stages could be implemented, compromising any military plans that had been drawn up.

The only other option for the enemies that now remains is a much wider strike against Iran, which will undoubtedly cause a devastating and regretful response, after the national unity of the Iranian people.

❗️🇺🇸/🇮🇷 Strategic advisor to Iran's Parliament Speaker, Mahdi Mohammadi:

'We know that we are facing a regime-change war in which the only way to achieve victory is to make credible the threat that, during the 12-day war, although it was ready, did not get the opportunity to be carried out:

A geographically expansive war of attrition, focused on the Persian Gulf energy markets, on the basis of steadily increasing missile firepower, lasting at least several months'

🇮🇷 NEW: There are signs that the internet in Iran is slowly coming back

It's not clear if this is nationwide or how long this will last—and most Iranians are currently asleep.

It's also possible that a very limited amount of servers (in essential sectors) were connected.

🇮🇷 UPDATE: The Iranian internet is NOT connected, they tested something tonight for a short time period, that's all

As reported before, it will likely take a while before internet is actually restored.

🇮🇷| Leader of Iran, Imam Khamenei:

“First of all, the nature of this sedition was American, this was clear. The Americans planned it and carried it out.

America’s goal, and I say this firmly and explicitly, based on over 40 years of experience in the Islamic Republic, is to devour Iran.

From the beginning of the Revolution until today, the dominance they had over this country was destroyed by the people, by the youth, by all segments of the people across the country, under the leadership of the great Imam.

From day 1, they have been thinking about restoring that dominance, meaning placing Iran once again under their military, political, and economic control.

That’s the goal. This is not about the current US president, nor about the person who is no longer president; this is about US policy.

America’s policy is this: A country with these characteristics, in such a sensitive geographic position, with these capabilities, this size, and this population…. they cannot tolerate it.

Such a country, with the progress it is making scientifically and technologically across various fields, is intolerable to the Americans. We consider the US president a criminal, both for the casualties, for the damages, and for the slander he directed at the Iranian nation.“
