Prince Reza Pahlavi stated on Thursday, December 6, that "the Islamic Republic is not reformable, and both reformists and conservatives are two arms of Ali Khamenei for plundering the resources and wealth of the Iranian nation." He added in a post on his social media that "just in recent days, news of rising prices for water, electricity, gas, bread, and medicine has been confirmed. The dollar has surpassed 72,000 tomans, and the Iranian people's table has shrunk even more. The price of cars has suddenly increased, and gasoline prices are also on the rise." Referring to the new leader of Hezbollah's remarks on rebuilding Lebanon with financial assistance from the Islamic Republic, he emphasized: "In the meantime, the leader of the terrorist group Hezbollah shamelessly announces that tens of millions of dollars from the wealth of the Iranian nation have been paid to the supporters of this group in Lebanon, and hundreds of millions of dollars more are to be paid in the coming months." Prince Reza Pahlavi noted: "As I have repeatedly emphasized, including before the recent circus of the regime's elections, the competition between the two factions of reformists and conservatives is not to solve the people's problems but for more plunder and to take a larger share of the revolution's table." He also referred to the message from two political prisoners imprisoned in Mashhad, stating: "Fatemeh and Mohammad Hossein Sepehri, two brave political prisoners, have rightly emphasized in their recent message that the Islamic Republic is the root of all imbalances and crises in the country, and the Iranian people are determined to uproot this corrupt and withered root from the pure soil of Iran forever." The Secretary-General of Hezbollah Lebanon, on Thursday, December 6, in a televised speech, thanked Ali Khamenei, the leader of the Islamic Republic, the government of Masoud Pezeshkian, and the Revolutionary Guards for financing Hezbollah, stating: "With financial assistance from Iran, $14,000 will be paid to each household whose home has been destroyed in Beirut."
