Ali Khamenei and IRGC Commanders
The political system in Iran is unique in terms of theory and inner organization. In fact,the word Islamic Republic could be replaced withthe keywordRepublicof Sultans,because from any aspect we look at the mullahs regimein itsentirety, we see plenty ofinstitutions creating and raising corruption.
Corruption has been defined in various waybut Transparency Internationaldefines corruption as the abuse of entrusted power for private gain.Corruption is like a disease in the political, economic andadministrativestructures and institutions. Researchers havedivided corruptioninto different aspects.They includepolitical, economic and administrativecorruption;structural and behavioral corruption;orsingle and systematic corruption as well as other divisions.
The Iranian regimes structural corruptionis currentlythe most devastating form of corruption. If structureis an almost durable relationship betweenthe members and components of a wholeunder a collectionofvalues, principles, rules and etiquette, the Iranian regimes structure,which is inseparable from corruption, hasravished the entire social and economic system.
The emergenceof vast corruption within the regimesgoverning pillars, the publishing of its news evenby the state-run media, people publiclysensing discrimination,thehugegap between social classes,andtheaccumulation of some privileged individualswhilemost ofthepopulationliveunder the poverty line are undeniable truths.Therefore, the army of unemployed and hungry peoplecould be seen both within andaround the cities.
The governing bodys insufficiency and economic problems, such as inflation andunemployment, systematic corruption of all the institutions includingthegovernment, parliament, Judiciary and military institutions, implementing harshand inhumane rules onlifestylewhich havelimited social freedom, highsocial dissatisfaction andviolence used against it such as the one used during Iran protests in November and January,thecover-up anddeceitwhich could be seen during the Ukrainian passenger jet downingand all the social classes disappointmentare the least achievements of the inglorious RepublicofSultans.
Clearly, all the regimestheoristsatdifferent levelsgive warnings in this regard.
SaiedHajarian,a reformisttheorist who was unsuccessfully assassinated by the Revolutionary Guards (IRGC) forces on March 12, 2000, and is currently atop theorist to the regimesso-called reformist faction, in an articletitled Forty years, the beginning oftheend or a fresh beginning, published onJanuary 26, 2019, wrote:
It seems that if we continue our path inthefuture with the samemethodthatwe did within the last forty years, we will fall into the valleyof downfall and deterioration.Therefore,we should have a new plan. Themain noble human life index inIran warnsus. Abiding by law, unemploymentand inflation rate, economic growth rate,GDP, transparency, democracy, corruption,environmental pollution, inequality and socialharm, piles of judiciary cases etc. do notpromise an honorable human life, and we know that we cannot rely on oppression for handling the situation.
Byemphasizingindicatorsof an honorable life which has been deprived from the Iranian people,Hajarianconfirmedthat the Republic ofSultans is about to collapse.Although this security element of the regime has no worries for the Iranian peoples freedom and lives,and he only caresfor the regimes survival.
Ina part of hisarticletitledThe third way: enriching institutions publishedonMarch 2, 2019, hewrote:
Indicatorsand statistics are foretelling an undesirable situation for future generations. Such a situationwill result inareductionofreserves, over increasing ofmigration and slum-dwellersand finallysocial harms such as coercion,beggary and depravity. As I previously wrote, ourgovernment simultaneously facestests oflegitimacy andefficiency, and if it does not resolve these two issue the situation will be thesame; and administrative corruption,rent distribution and patronage willeatatthe government lie a termite.
AlthoughHajarianaddressedthe regimes current government, he clearly sawthe so-called termite attackonthe entirerotten regime and warnedabout it.
Besides the admission of the regimes securityelements, a quick glimpseatthe news and density of arrests by the regimes judiciaryconfirms how corruption has spread across this system.Therefore,discoveringand executionvariousSultans within the last few years was not irrelevant.
The CoinSultan and the BitumenSultan were executed; and theSultansof sugar, oil, carpet and gas, rice,iron and even diapers and medicine were one after another exposed in the state-run media.
TheseSultansfish introubled waters.The existence,increaseand levelof their successis because of the regimes lack of transparency, rents, critical situation andinefficient rules, full ofpolitical and economicwavers. TheseSultanssurvival is conditioned to the existence of a security umbrella, which is provided by the Revolutionary Guards.
Some of theseSultansare direct and close relatives of some of the regimes politicians.Theirgrowthwithout supportfromthose holdingontopower and richness in society is amythand unrealistic. The corruption of some of the regimes officials and their children,wining extrajudicialpoints within the last few years, have become a groundforgrowth and boastingbytheseSultans.
Therefore, using the word Republic ofSultans isnot irrelevant.
The IRGCs military interventionand its oppressive support of theseSultansand their deeds have createda supercritical situation for the regime. A supercritical situation which increases monthly anddeclines Irans national wealth.
Therefore, making the effort to expose parts of this collapsing bodycould portray a clear image of thefuture of theRepublic ofSultans.
To finda comprehensive image in different parts, it has been tried toput the regimes extensive corruptioninto order. Although the chaos of this system has made it difficult to find aprecise and detailed method of searching this corrupted system, buthopefully it will shed light on the situation for everyone.
