“The time has come for the Iranian people to unite around its flag and its historic legacy, by standing up for your freedom from the evil and oppressive regime.”

Mar-do-me sh-ja-ee Iran, noor bar tariki piruz ast.
Brave people of Iran, light defeats the darkness.

To those who still believe in the power of people,
to those who still remember what it means to be free — this is your call.

For over four decades, the Iranian people have lived under a regime that traded truth for terror, justice for oppression, and faith for fear.
A regime that crushed its own sons and daughters to cling to power, poisoned hope with propaganda, and turned a proud civilization into a prison.

But now, something is shifting.
This is not just the beginning. And not the end.
It may well be the end of the beginning.

Once, from these very lands, Cyrus the Great declared:
“I respected all peoples and allowed them to live in their own faith.”
That legacy still flows through Iranian blood. It cannot be erased.

This regime has twisted the very name of Islam — whose meaning is peace — into a tool of fear.
It has stained the name of our faith on the world stage.
This regime has betrayed even the values it claims to defend.

We call upon our neighbors, our fellow believers of all faiths, and every conscience across the world:

We do not want war. We do not even want to be associated with violence.
We want peace — not just in Iran, but across our region and the world.
We do not seek revenge.
We want to live as brothers and sisters, in dignity.

To the free people of the free world,
to our brothers and sisters beyond our borders,
to those who still carry the legacy of Cyrus in their conscience,
to all who speak for justice and peace in every language and every land —
We call on you. Join us. Stand with us.
Be part of a peace the world will remember for generations.
