Expressing support for the Iranian people's desire for a democratic, secular, and nonnuclear Republic of Iran
Condemns the regime's terrorism and killing of protesters, cites support for the ten-point plan of Maryam Rajavi, leader of the MEK-linked National Council of Resistance of Iran, and says Iranians are 'rejecting monarchic dictatorship and religious tyranny'.
- Liberty position
- Stay off
- Introduced
- February 7, 2023
- Why staying off is the liberty side
- The text endorses the ten-point plan of Maryam Rajavi, who leads the political arm of the MEK, one exile group, and declares on behalf of Iranians which system they reject. Standing with a free people means letting Iranians choose their own government in a free vote, not choosing it for them. So signing it counts against.
Counted under the principle Stands with free nations and free peoples.

I say the liberty side was to stay off. Agree, or not? Readers argue it here, in their own words. Not mine, and not checked the way a vote is.
