Amid the grating cries of today’s agents of darkness, who propagate the fascist slogan "you are either with us or against us," who serve our "sultan," and not surprisingly buy into the deal of "obedience to the government for protection and profits;" amid the voices that justify injustices and violations of human rights and freedoms, and the economic and financial elite who perpetually seek to protect their privileges by supporting the autocrat and the close alliance between the government and the revolution; amid of all these, are the writers, politicians, and media figures who perpetuate myths to justify abandoning democracy and the continued dominion of the military establishment and security apparatus over state and society via the exceptional status granted them by the constitution, by their huge unregulated role in politics and economics, and by the presidential candidacy of the former defense minister.
