Frood Fouladvand (birth name: Fathollah Manouchehri) is the leader of "Anjoman-e Padeshahi-e Iran" (Kingdom Assembly of Iran), which broadcasts on the satellite channel “Your TV” that has been operating in London since 2002. “Your TV”, alike numerous other Persian channels, contributes for the endeavour to restore human rights in Iran by overthrowing the Islamic Republic, as they describe to be the root of terrorism. However, Fouladvand is not only against the Islamic Republic in Iran, but he and his colleagues criticize any Islamic activity as a whole. Their intentions are not to bash Muslims, but rather to convince them to discontinue their religion; as they do not believe that it is a proper way of life nor is it acceptable. They do so by addressing speeches nearly everyday, explaining the development of Islam and what has come of it. Dr. Fouladvand always quotes from the Qur’an and Arabic history books to support his assertions, to give his perspective of the true nature of Islam and its influences in our modern society.

"Anjoman-e Padeshahi-e Iran" (Kingdom Assembly of Iran) is the main Iranian opposition group to the Islamic regime of Iran, with Dr. Fouladvand as its founder and leader. Fouladvand is recognised by the majority of Iranians as the only true Iranian patriotic leader. Anjoman-e Padeshahi-e Iran broadcasts its views and teachings on satellite TV (Telestar 12 and 5)called "Your TV" and also broadcasts on its internet TV and radio. Internet TV address: www.anjoman.tv and Internet radio address: www.anjoman-p.org. It has several internet webpages created and maintained by its supporters worldwide. Kingdom Assembly of Iran is financially supported by its TV and Radio audiences and supporters only . The main goal is to restore the Iranian Monarchy which is a constitutional monarchy that was abolished by the 1979 Revolution. Dr. Fouladvand clearly stated that he has no intention of ruling Iran, and his prime objective is to free Iran from bondage with Islam, and restore Persian culture and values. He is well aware of being targeted by Islamic militants, he also once survived from an armed attack which took place on the October 16, 2006, just few minutes after he finished his second part of his live broadcast time at 02:35 GMT. He did not report any of this to the British police due to the fact that this could delay his travel plans. Instead, he continues to fight to re-establish the purity of Iran with devotion. Though he strongly detests Islamic culture, he is very knowledgeable in this subject matter. He is capable of fluently speaking and reading in Persian, Luri, Arabic and English. He became very familiar with the verses written in the Qur’an as he has done intensive research throughout the entire book, as well as the history of Islam. Generous enough, he shares his knowledge on his satellite station to inform the public that the negativity towards Islam is valid. While on air, Dr. Fouladvand receives phone calls to hear what his audience has to say, or to answer any questions. He often receives phone calls from angry viewers who are offended by how he has evaluated Islam, only to be cursed and sometimes even threatened. Dr. Fouladvand is well aware of the amount of people who are against him; though he and his group continue to broadcast their program, hoping that one day Iran will be freed from its malignancy. On October 18, 2006, Dr. Fouladvand started his "Freedom Air Mission" (Parvaz-e Azadi). This mission is also branched in Azarakhsh and "Thunder Movements". Since year 2005 he declared that there will be one Azarakhsh and three Thunder movements in Abroad and also Five Thunder movements inside Iran. So far till today, 14 January 2007, he successfully completed the Azarakhsh movement in Brussel (Lufthansa Jet). Thunder one also took place in Brussel in front of the EU, known differently as chain movement (more pictures and facts to be attached in the near future). Thunder two took place in Netherland in Front of the European Court, also known as the wedding demonstration. Thunder three took place in Paris, Arch of Triumph. During the same time three thunder movements inside Iran were successful. Qom Protest, Ashura's day and Sad-e Sivand. He has declared that the Thunder 5 movement is the last day of the Islamic Regime. There is two more Thunder movements to come and to be completed by 21 March 2007. He certainly gave a message to the humanity; the great power of mankind's will. His brave actions and patriotism will always be remembered by the Iranian nation.

Dr. Fouladvand and his followers claim that the European Union, Tony Blair specifically, have been supporting the regime in Iran in strive for oil. He has reasonably asked the leaders of the European Union to discontinue any further support of the regime. In one of the early broadcast emissions he quotes that "We don't ask nobody, no country, nor any power in the world to help us to change the regime. We can do it ourselves."

On Friday, June 17, 2005,(BBC Report)London police had barged into Dr. Fouladvand’s home where he and his group were arrested for advocating an armed struggle with the Iranian government. His group has been responsible for numerous demonstrations in Europe asking the leaders of the EU to drop its support for the Islamic Republic of Iran. Coincidentally, this occurred on the same day that the 2005 presidential election began in Iran. He and his group were released the following day. Apparently, Dr. Fouladvand was shot in his ribs during the bombardment from the authorities; he revealed a scar as proof when a caller accused him of lying about it. His travel documents were also confiscated, in which he retrieved with the help of an Iranian lawyer in 2006.

Frood Fouladvand was raised by a Muslim family in a village called Shah Valad, located in Lorestān. He enjoyed activities such as horseback riding. His parents followed Muslim religion, and was sometimes brought to a mosque. After the 1979 Revolution, the authorities were appalled of his attitudes towards them, thus he fled to Egypt in salvation. His career as a film director, producer and his political activities during his stay in Egypt made him a very well known figure in the Arab world. As a film director he was at the top of his profession which did not went unnoticed in Arabic Media. His film "Lions of Sinai" was the winner of the "International Film Festival" of Cairo and "International Film Festival of Alexandria First Prize as the Best Film Director." He was interviewed by the Arabic Media for his career and his success, but he always found an escape and his answers were purely political and to what really happened to his homeland Iran. Another great film he made in Egypt was "A man From Third World" which covers Middle Eastern situations that are still actual today. His great friendship with President Sadat leaded to great danger after the President's death. He fled Egypt around 1992 after his life was threatened to death by the Islamic fundamentalist groups of Egypt. He chose to settle in the United Kingdom as he was determined to re-establish freedom in his country as Emil Zola did.
