Reza Mohammad-Hosseini's Support as a Political Prisoner for the National Uprising: The Iranian People's Solidarity is Inspiring and Praiseworthy

Reza Mohammad-Hosseini, a political prisoner in Ghezel Hesar Prison, in a statement supporting Iran's national uprising, called on the military and security forces to stand alongside the people and warned Islamic Republic officials to learn from the fate of similar dictators.

This political prisoner stated in a part of this declaration written on Wednesday, 17 Dey: "These days, the people of Iran are standing in the streets and loudly shouting their demands. They have openly and explicitly declared their opposition to the criminal regime of the Islamic Republic.

The people want freedom, they want prosperity, they want justice.

For years, they have been crushed under the mounting pressure of class divides, poverty, high prices, and runaway inflation. Their lives have fallen below the poverty line, and anxiety about the future has become a daily concern for families."

Referring to the steadfastness of the youth in Iran's national uprising, he added: "The people rightly see this situation as the product of the Islamic Republic's destructive policies—a government that from the outset did not prioritize Iran's interests or the Iranian people, instead favoring religious ideology, regional adventurism, and enmity with the world over the people's welfare, security, and future. The people have taken to the streets, and these protests in recent days have grown broader each day, spreading from city to city. When a person has nothing left to lose, they no longer flee. They stand firm, they stand or sit and resist the bullets of the repressive forces; because they are at the end of their rope and desperation has cut to the bone."

Reza Mohammad-Hosseini described the arrest of numerous protesters and even students as stemming from "the depth of the regime's terror of society," adding that the regime "has launched a project of forced confessions, confiscates the bodies of the fallen, and pressures families to repeat fabricated narratives. This government knows no bounds or limits to its crimes; it even raids hospitals, including Ilam Hospital and Sina Hospital in Tehran, to abduct the wounded. In the face of this organized violence, the solidarity of the Iranian people is inspiring and commendable."

Warning the Islamic Republic about its crackdown on protesters, arrests, and fabricating cases against them, he advised the regime to learn from similar dictators and "before it's too late, hand over power, leave, release Iran, and entrust it to its people."

Reza Mohammad-Hosseini also addressed the military and repressive forces: "Know that the person you target today may tomorrow turn out to be a member of your own family, your neighbor, your fellow villager, your classmate, or an old friend. History will judge you on which side you stood. Let your honor and conscience be your guide, stand with the people, and do not shoot at the people. This government will go sooner or later, but you will live in this very Iran."
