The Islamic Republic of Iran: A State Structure of Islamic Imperialism

The book aims to provide insight into the question of why the ruling Islamic System of Iran has been in conflict with both the international community and its own people since its establishment. The analysis is based on statistical evidence, and the answer to this question is complex and multifaceted. The book examines the structural nature of governance in the Islamic Republic of Iran, highlighting the duality in the government's structure. The upper level is the religious core that controls all power in Iran, consisting of unelected bodies like the Supreme Leader and affiliated organizations. The lower level is seen as a representation of the national government and is completely under the indirect control of the Supreme Leader. The book discusses 48 institutions related to the religious core or the caliphate structure of Iran's ruling regime. Only the Guardian Council has full control over all three "electoral institutions" in the lower structure, which is referred to as the "mask" or "External Face."

The book also delves into the "Islamic imperialism" strategy implemented by the Iranian regime's caliphate structure, which consists of three stages: "Iranianism," "Shi'ism," and "Islamism". The regime's goal is to use the capabilities and capacities of democracy to destroy democratic values and infiltrate Muslim populations in other countries.

Following this, through explaining the regime's hybride warfare, I've delved deep into the IRGC's complex international endeavors against democratic values. This includes efforts spanning grassroots and digital radicalization, misinformation campaigns, cyber aggression, and the roles played by Islamic centers associated with Iran's caliphate segment within Western settings. Supported with documented instances, it becomes evident how these Islamic centers, located in democracies, spearhead local radicalization initiatives, which are central to hybrid warfare strategies. These strategies are further amplified by online radicalization, the spread of false information, and cyber intrusions. All of these elements are part of Iran's wider hybrid assault against democratic structures.

The book concludes with a final discussion and proposes a safe shared solution.
