It Is Not Just About Regime Change – It Is About Reshaping The Region: The Post-Ayatollahs Iran Has To Include Non-Persians
The solution to Balochistan's 77-year plight is not regime change in Tehran or Islamabad.
The solution to Balochistan's decades-long occupation is to give full control of the republic of a united Balochistan to its own people.

Not The Mullahs Nor The Shah
Both Iran and Pakistan are repressing, persecuting, jailing, and massacring the Baloch people. Today's Mullah regime in Iran is executing our people on bogus charges, demolishing Baloch villages to pave the way to shift its capital Tehran to Makuran,[1] in Balochistan's Chabahar coastal regions, tomorrow the Pahlavi regime will continue the legacy of Khamenei by suppressing the Baloch nation as his father Reza Shah Pahlavi in 1973 helped Pakistan's Prime Minister Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto quell our legitimate independent movement.[2]
We desire to inform all those people who are helping install Reza Pahlavi in Tehran after expelling Khamenei, that their money, blood, and efforts will be wasted if they do not include Baloch, Kurds, Ahwazis, and the other non-Persian ethnic nations that comprise 50 of the population as stakeholders in this entire process.
Khamenei is funding proxies to harm Israel and the Middle East, the Pahlavi will continue developing the Iranian nuclear program with a beardless face and diplomatic attire.
A placard reads: "Iran is a country of 70 nations. A coalition of parties. One person [referring to Reza Pahlavi] is not an attorney for the whole country. Any coalition of any kind, if it is going to happen, must be formed with all parties." (Source: Twitter)

Israeli airstrike targets fortified site in Tehran
Shafaq News/ Israel's air force struck a heavily fortified facility in northeast Tehran overnight Thursday, Israeli media reported. The strikes hit the Lavizan district, an area previously flagged in intelligence assessments as hosting key Iranian military and decision-making infrastructure linked to Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei's military office and senior aides. Iran International, a UK-based opposition outlet, had reported that Khamenei had relocated to an underground bunker in Lavizan alongside close family members, including his son Mojtaba, directing operations through a tight inner circle. Earlier, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu hinted at targeting Iran's leadership. 'I gave instructions that no one is immune,' he stated, referencing Khamenei. 'All the options are open. It's best not to speak about this in the press.' His remarks followed Defense Minister Israel Katz's call to intensify strikes 'deep inside Iran' and his demand for 'the elimination of Khamenei.' The airstrike came amid continued cross-border attacks now entering their second week, after Israel's surprise attack on Iran. Iran's latest wave caused severe damage in Tel Aviv and Beersheba, injuring 271 people, according to Israeli Channel 12.

Muslim Brotherhood In Syria Rejects Statement From Parent Organization Declaring Support For Iran In War With Israel: We Will Not Side With 'The Criminals Who Have Destroyed Iraq, Syria, And Yemen', W
On June 18, 2025, Dr. Salah Abdel-Haq, the Muslim Brotherhood's (MB) Acting General Guide posted a statement on X (formerly Twitter) declaring the organization's position siding with Iran in its war with Israel. Addressing Iran's Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, the statement stressed the need for the Muslim nation to stand united, and alleged that Israel understands that it cannot eliminate the Palestinian resistance without targeting its "incubator" – including Iran and the Muslim Brotherhood.[1] On June 19, only hours after the MB statement was released, the Muslim Brotherhood in Syria released its own communique on its X account disavowing any statement issued in the name of the Muslim Brotherhood that "supports the murderers, champions the criminals, and sides, under any pretext, with the project of the criminals who have destroyed Iraq, Syria, and Yemen, and displaced millions of Arabs and Muslims."[2] Categorically rejecting the significance of the role of Iran and its proxies in the Syrian revolution, the MB in Syria stated: "We reaffirm that our position on the two parties to this crime [i.e. Iran and Israel], who are vying for hegemony and influence in our region to change our religion and humiliate our peoples, as we have seen happen in Iraq, Syria, Yemen, and Lebanon, remain unchanged." "We disavow both projects, and we will not be deceived by any cunning criminal among them," the Syrian branch declared. The post emphasized that MB in Syria utterly rejects any statement made by any party that claims to represent the Muslim Brotherhood, or by any official or popular authority claiming to represent Islam and Muslims. In achieving victory in Syria, claimed the statement, the MB in Syria has never and will never be guided by anything other than their national compass, and that their political calculations will always prioritize "national interests." Further, it asserted that Muslims need to work diligently to achieve liberation and counter all projects of hegemony, influence, and deception of the masses by those who exploit and distort Islam. "Only serious, planned action, and not humiliating subservience to criminals and imposters," the statement concluded, adding a prayer for the victory and empowerment for the just causes of the Muslims, foremost among which is the Palestinian cause.
