هیچ کدام از شرایط بالا که لازمه یک انتخابات آزاد و دموکراتیک است در ایران تحت حاکمیت رژیم جمهوری اسلامی وجود نداشته و ندارد.
برطبق ماده 57 قانون اساسی رژیم اسلامی ایران ولی فقیه دارای اختیار مطلق بر قوه مقننه ، قوه مجریه و قوه قضائیه است و بر اساس همین ماده ولی فقیه در تمام امور مملکت وبخش های مختلف زندگی احاد کشور کنترل دارد.

In the past 3 years, this Foundation has granted several hundred thousands of dollars to Rutgers University’s Hooshang Amirahmadi operation. Amirahmadi is the president of Middle Eastern Studies in Rutgers. Interestingly, he also founded the American Iranian Council in 1997 and launched a large scale lobby and campaign to lift the pressure off the Iranian regime.

While there are some reservations about the limited number of people surveyed (only 400) and the format of the questionnaire, we should however, welcome the results as the Iranian-Americans have in large numbers pointed to the common roots of their concerns. The results show in a clear way that the Iranian-American’s concerns are directly caused by the Iranian regime.

واضح است که تفاهم متقابل بین مردم ایران و امریکا از یک طرف تحت تاثیر سیاست های واپسگرایانه داخلی رژیم اسلامی ایران و از طرف دیگر به سیاست خارجی این رژیم در حمایت از تروریسم جهانی قرار گرفته است.
اگر ما عامل رژیم ایران را حذف کنیم، هیچگونه عدم تفاهمی بین توده های مردم امریکا و ایران وجود نخواهد داشت.

Therefore, American corporations will be prohibited to deal with Iran’s oil companies as well as other Iranian financial institutions already listed in the appendix.

On 3 December 2008, a group of “Iran experts” and scholars will be participating in a one day conference to debate the US policy toward Iran. This meeting, far from a usual experts’ gathering, is part of a broader campaign which aims to influence Obama’s policy with regards to Iran.
This time though, there are no reformists or pragmatists in power in Tehran. Once again we hear the same campaign waffles coming from the Iranian lobbyist groups for the US to adopt a more amicable practice with Iran; this time though, simply because Bush was not peaceful enough.

Next Tuesday, on November 18, the National Iranian American Council (NIAC) will host a congressional briefing. Senator Thomas Carper (D-DE) and Representative John Tierney (D-MA) are amongst the speakers. They will be talking about the new president’s policy towards Iran.
It is deeply concerning that a discredited group within the Iranian-American community, with blatantly obvious connections with the Islamic Republic, should be allowed to freely influence Washington’s political circles to the detriment of the American peoples’ and ultimately, the world community’s interests.

On behalf of “PAIC” we would like to extend our congratulations to the President-elect Mr. Barack Obama. This historic event is a significant illustration of the American democracy at its best.
The Iranian community in the USA expects Mr. Obama to take effective steps in handling the Iranian regime’s threats in the Middle East by bringing the whole world together in order to neutralize Iran’s rulers’ ambitions to acquire the nuclear bomb, and to offset Islamic Republic’s lobbying influence in the USA.

Hopefully, with the new president, tougher policies will be implemented against Mullahs’ ambitions. We, the Iranian Americans can play a decisive role to confront the Mullahs’ lobby. We must make a concerted effort to raise the awareness of the American public to the Human Rights situation in Iran, stop the Mullahs’ nuclear ambitions and prevent their domination of the Middle East.

Once again, in late September, the Islamic Regime’s president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is expected to attend the United Nations’ General Assembly in NY. This comes in an opportune time when the regime needs it most.
