The leader of the Iranian democratic resistance sent Christmas greetings to Christian supporters, calling the birth of Jesus a time of hope for “emancipation and liberty.”
Maryam Rajavi, a Muslim and the president-elect of the National Council of Resistance of Iran, sat in front of a Christmas tree and a statue of the Virgin Mary on a table on her right, as she issued her holiday message this week.
“The message of Christ for the enchained humanity is the promise for emancipation and liberty. A message that for over two thousand years and beyond all distortions and oppressions is calling generations of mankind to peace, justice and liberty,” she said.
Rajavi denounced Iran’s brutal theocracy as the “most atrocious enemy” to both Christ and Muhammad.
“In the name of Islam, they splash acid on the eyes of women in Iran, hang the youth, incarcerate newly Christian converts and violate their most basic rights,” she said from the Paris-based headquarters of the resistance.
“They are henchmen that execute and torture people for their religious beliefs, especially for following the true messages of Muhammad and Christ, and impose the worst discrimination and atrocities.
“They have set up a bloodthirsty religious tyranny that is the epicenter of fundamentalism and terrorism under the banner of Islam and the Godfather of all villains that today kill the innocent captives and hostages and force Christians and believers of other faiths to migrate and become homeless in the Middle East, particularly in Iraq and Syria.”
The resistance is a coalition of opposition factions established in 1981 to replace the Iranian regime with a pro-Western democratic government.
The resistance also exposed Iran’s suspected nuclear-weapons program in 2002
