I think of the day the doors of Iran's political prisons open, when we tell those held inside, “We have freed our Iran,” and of the tears we will shed. I think of history repeating itself some 2,500 years after Cyrus the Great liberated Babylon, this time through Reza Shah II. Until that day, let us remember the eyes waiting for us. Long live Iran. #جاويدشاه‌
