'The Islamic Republic has reached its end,' Pahlavi posted. 'What has begun is irreversible. The future is bright, and together, we will pass through this sharp turn in history.' He called on Iranians across the country to rise up, from 'Bandar Abbas to Bandar Anzali, from Shiraz to Isfahan', saying the moment for national liberation had portrayed Khamenei as a weakened, panicked leader: "Khamenei, like a frightened rat, has gone into hiding underground and has lost control of the situation.""The end of the Islamic Republic is the end of its 46-year war against the Iranian nation," Pahlavi exiled royal also appealed directly to Iran's military and security personnel, many of whom he claims are already reaching out to him privately. "Do not sacrifice yourselves for a decaying regime," he wrote. "By standing with the people, you can save your lives. Play a historic role in the transition."
