Massoud Behnoud, Journalist inIran Man Club - Anniversary of Mustafa Tajzadeh's arrest

I'm not political, but on July 9, 1999, I encountered a different phenomenon. Hajjarian had previously changed our minds, but when I saw Tajzadeh, I realized there were people in the government who thought differently.

I saw he was a Muslim but thought like us. I remember writing about him emotionally at the time.

My point was that if the Islamic Republic had a few Tajzadehs, it would have an easier time. A non-flattering language is necessary, and we see that Mr. Khamenei insisted on the law before his leadership. You even felt he had complaints about Mr. Khomeini.

But, alas, time has turned him into a leader as if the law doesn't exist. It has reached a point where all the intellectuals who liked him and had private meetings with him have gone into the shadows.

I can claim to have seen someone who was absolute power and saw everything dependent on it, but at the airport, everything fell apart, and they were just looking to leave. At that time, all laws were trampled.

In a strange way, our times resemble that period. Where are the clerics in society now? Which of them speaks out of turn? Is the Guardian Council in the hands of an old man? Everything is in the hands of one office.

Who is the president? Everything is concentrated in the leadership. When everything is concentrated, we reach the fate of Mohammad Reza Shah.
