Iran has a population of 85 million. A simple calculation shows that around 84.7% of the Iranian population requires financial help in the form of subsidies. It is surprising that these strange figures can be found in a country that is one of the richest countries in the world and is known for having many natural resources, including energy reserves and their by-products.
The reality of the situation is that since the inception of the Velayat-e-Faqih regime, Iran is traversing the path of death rows, despair, inflation, unemployment, terrorism, nuclear threats, torture, executions, and injustice. This dire situation has clearly resulted from the regime founder Ruhollah Khomeini’s promises in the series of speeches before and after the referendum on the establishment of the Islamic Republic in February 1979.
Free utilities, housing for the poor, full rights for religious and ethnic minorities, and reduced military spending were some of the promises Khomeini made in his speeches. However, more than four decades later, not only have none of these promises been fulfilled, but in many cases, the Velayat-e-Faqih regime has acted in a way that is completely opposite of those promises.
