* Brave nation of Iran! Vigilant brothers and sisters of Tehran! Now that victory is nigh, as God has willed so, and the army has withdrawn, declaring its non-intervention in political affairs, and has expressed its support for the nation, the brave and beloved nation should maintain its readiness for any possible defense while keeping very alert in this situation. In cases when the military forces are retreating to their bases, it should maintain peace and order.

* I hereby announce to the military commanders that if the military refrains from further incursions and joins the nation and the Islamic legal and national government, we will recognize them as being one with the nation and the nation as one with them, and will treat them like brothers.
