Mousavi's Facebook has an announcement of what his new organization is going to look like:
Mousavi said: “What conceptualized the protesting movement of the people and its expanding aspects is ignoring the law, dignity and the natural rights of citizens and unlawful behaviors."
He, who was talking to the members of the Islamic Association of The Medical Society of Iran, added: “If they had taken a fair position instead of calling the people dust and dirt [a Farsi saying reflecting insignificance and negligibility, used by Mahmoud Ahmadinejad in a victory speech a few days after the election to refer to the protesters and those who objected the results of the election], humiliating them and making propaganda on the state television and if before people poured into the streets they had treated them within the framework of law and had respected their rights, today we wouldn’t have faced many of these crises. “
He also emphasized: “There is no regime like the Islamic Republic in the world and therefore protecting it is a difficult task.”
He added: “Our slogans during the election were chosen to fit the framework of the constitution and the principles that people believe in. Today, we are still committed to the same slogans and we are certain that if they had treated people’s demand with justice and if the propaganda agencies had tried to convince the public opinion with fair criticism and truthfulness instead of linking the spontaneous movements of people to the foreigners and showing the truth upside-down, it would have been to the benefit of the regime and the spirit of pessimism and mistrust would not have penetrated the society.”
