Coup Command Center Makes another Admission‎

I have been carrying the image of Ahmad Janfeshan Vazife’s face for many years. He was the first person subjected to air his “confessions” after the “Islamic system” was established, sitting for the TV cameras of the “brothers”. He was very young, seventeen or eighteen years at the most. He looked to be completely without any protection. He spoke of being duped and that he was happy that through the kindness of the “brothers” he had returned to “the embrace of Islam”. He talked of “Islamic forgiveness and clemency.”

I had put my head between my hands and began to cry. I did not understand this, hadn’t seen such things during the Shah’s years.

Soon many others were brought to the same scene, who did and said exactly the same things. And there were many: Ayatollah Shariatmadari, Nooreddin Kianouri, Ezatollah Sahabi, Ali Afshari, Ramin Jahanbegloo, Haleh Esfandiary, and the list goes on.

Now that we have seen so many people appear on Islamic republic’s television, and heard their identical “confessions”, we also know what the source for these TV shows is. Now we know that right from day of the victory of the revolution in February 1979, a mafia gang has been advancing its creeping coup, and with every step forcing new people to make “confessions” to advance its cause. Now we realize that all these inhuman shows were to advance the agenda of the command center of the coup.

Ahmad Janfeshan Vazife was the first person, but seyed Amir Hossein Mahdavi, a member of Mir-Hossein Mousavi’s election campaign, who confessed recently, shall not be the last. The command center of the coup lives through blood and repression.

The story is now very clear. The “brothers” infiltrated and entrenched themselves in all military, economic, and security institutions since February 1979. They planned today’s coup right then. With every step they conspired to move one of their chess players on Iran’s political scene forward, and moved one step closer. The story line of these events has remained the same: Arrest of Western and Eastern mercenaries, their torture at the hands of the “brothers” in solitary cells, “guidance” and then “confessions.”

In other words as we looked at the fall of a pawn or a bishop on the chess set, the key coup perpetrators moved another chess piece forward, and scored another victory.

Things moved on until it was Mahmoud Ahmadinejad military-mafia’s turn. God knows whose turn will be next. Until these gentlemen will declare their checkmate.

But the problem with this plan is that these “brothers” believe that the game of politics has only one round. You win once, sit back, and get ready for the next move. Till now, these gentlemen have successfully advanced their “creeping” coup d’etat. But only in the absence of the principal player: people. The people who are in the streets with one voice, Neda’s, or in their houses full of pain.
