0:01 Hello. It is Friday, 3 Bahman 1404, January 23, 2026. The cancellation of flights by Lufthansa, Air France, Air Canada, KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, Swiss Air, and Emirates has heightened speculation about an American military attack and a possible conflict between Iran and Israel. For some time now, American forces have been moving to the region, and two aircraft carriers were on their way. Of course, at various points the United States has had aircraft carriers in the region,
0:54 and the things being said are what is reinforcing this speculation. It is said that in the coming week, because snow, freezing rain and so on are expected in Washington and on the East Coast of the United States from Saturday evening until Monday morning, followed by a very cold week in which temperatures will not rise above a few degrees below zero, Mr. Trump will go to his residence in Florida, and there, in the meetings he will hold in Florida, he is to consult on and ultimately make his decision about Iran.
1:54 As I said in the previous program, it is said that there are three military options on Trump's table: the simplest is a cyberattack; the second option is a combined cyber and military attack; and the third option is a crippling strike, including killing Khamenei and hitting IRGC centers and so on and so forth. It is also said that four political options have been put on Mr. Trump's table: from negotiating with this very Islamic Republic, which Mr. Witkoff had mentioned, to striking a deal with someone inside the regime who would take over at the top of the regime if they take out Khamenei, a model similar to
2:48 Venezuela, with all the difficulties it has in Iran's case; to striking the regime, wrecking it, and sending someone in from abroad, a model similar to Ahmad Chalabi in Iraq, and the person most talked about, if this option is chosen, is sending Mr. Reza Pahlavi as that individual. And a fourth option is also being considered, which is in effect preparing the ground in advance: forming a council of national reconciliation in which various segments of Iran's ethnic groups, political activists, leaders and representatives of the movements of recent decades, civil activists and others would take part, plus, for example, Mr. Pahlavi or monarchy supporters, so that there would be a center of gravity in the country so that
3:51 the people of the country do not turn on one another, and a transitional government, along with the maintenance of the country's security and bureaucracy, would also be formed with the approval of this council, so that it could run the country. In any case, what decision Mr. Trump will make among these four political options and three military options, which are also interrelated, after the consultations and meetings, is not clear, and we have no choice but to wait. Except that it must be said that, in any case, a great moral responsibility has fallen on Mr. Trump's shoulders, because he promised, he promised the people of Iran again and again that if they kill you, America will not sit idly by, it will retaliate,
4:48 it will respond. And many people also kept repeating this, that help is on the way from Trump — some media outlets, some individuals. In any case, the bloodthirsty regime of the Islamic Republic carried out its massacre, and these threats and these promises did not stop the hands of the executioners of the Islamic Republic, Khamenei, and the traitorous commanders of the IRGC, and the massacre was carried out. From now on, too, whatever decision he makes will not bring back those killed on the path of the homeland's freedom, nor undo the savagery they committed, but perhaps it can lessen his moral burden.
5:39 But with the slight opening of the internet, which opens, then shuts down for hours, gets weak, gets strong, and has in practice paralyzed many businesses as well, even with this small amount, videos are coming out of Iran and the dimensions of the crime against humanity are becoming clearer — something unprecedented in our country, which we may have seen from dictators like Saddam, Bashar al-Assad, or Gaddafi in the Arab world, but in Iran we had never had such savagery, where they set upon the people in the streets like this. A report submitted to the Majlis about
6:34 the events — someone who had seen this report has quoted from it — states that the death toll in this report is 27,000 people. Of course, it may take a long time for all the dimensions of this crime against humanity and this mass killing to become known, and many organizations, bodies and activists are busy finding the documents, records and real figures: the number of prisoners, the number of those killed, the wounded, and such matters. Mowlavi Abdolhamid, the Sunni Friday prayer leader of Zahedan,
7:26 stated in his remarks today that the high death toll of the recent protests has astonished and stunned the people of Iran and the world. No government should treat its people with violence. He also called for the release of the thousands detained in these protests and of political prisoners, and said: reconnect the internet immediately, as its cutoff has harmed the lives and livelihoods of many, millions of people. Also today, at the United Nations Human Rights Council, in which 46 countries were present,
8:20 in Geneva, a proposed resolution with a strong and harsh tone against the regime of the Islamic Republic was adopted with 25 votes in favor, 14 abstentions and seven votes against. The countries that voted against were China, Cuba, India, Indonesia, Iraq, Pakistan and Vietnam. Among the positive points of today's resolution is that the mandate of the Special Rapporteur on human rights was extended for one year, and likewise the mandate of the United Nations fact-finding mission investigating the crimes of the Islamic Republic regime was extended
9:20 for another two years. Hoping for the victory of Iran and Iranians.
