ایران و انقلاب

دربارهٔ انقلاب ایران در بهمن ماه سال هزار و سیصد و پنجاه و هفت که نزدیک به نیم قرن از آن می‌گذرد، بسیار گفته و نوشته شده است. جمهوری اسلامی به رهبری آیت‌الله خمینی از دل این انقلاب بیرون آمد و تا به امروز رژیم اسلامی بر همهٔ نهادهای کشور حکومت، و آنها را مدیریت کرده است. مردم ایران که اکثریت آنها به جمهوری اسلامی رأی دادند، اکنون چنان از این رژیم به ستوه آمده‌اند که هر ثانیه آرزوی نابودی آن را دارند، اما هیچ نیروی دیگری برای جایگزینی این رژیم ننگین وجود ندارد.ا
