Why Iran’s regime is afraid of growing calls for the disbanding of the IRGC
In a recent address, Iranian Resistance leader Massoud Rajavi called for the dismantlement of the Revolutionary Guards (IRGC), the Iranian regime’s main implement of suppression and terrorism. Mr. Rajavi emphasized that the IRGC’s budget and assets must be allocated to people’s health and to counter the coronavirus outbreak in Iran, which has now resulted in 108,800 human casualties in 440 cities checkered across the country. If the regime’s aim is not domestic suppression and export of terrorism abroad, having a single military force, the artesh (army), is enough for the country, and the huge annual budget spent on the regime’s warmongering policies in the region could be used for deprived people of Iran.
