How long will witless Western feminists stand with the oppressors and claim that women who wear hijab are victimized in the West, when the real oppression worldwide is of women who do not wear hijab?
“Five killed in Iran during protests over death in custody – rights group,” Reuters, September 20, 2022:
Five people were killed in Iran’s Kurdish region on Monday when security forces opened fire during protests over the death of a woman in police custody, a Kurdish rights group said, on a third day of turmoil over an incident that has ignited nationwide anger.
Mahsa Amini, a 22-year-old from Iran’s Kurdistan province, fell into a coma and died following her arrest in Tehran last week by the morality police, sparking demonstrations in numerous areas including the capital.
Two of the people were killed as security forces opened fire on protesters in the Kurdish city of Saqez, Amini’s hometown, the Hengaw Human Rights Organization said on Twitter.
It said two more were killed in the town of Divandarreh “by direct fire” from security forces, and a fifth was killed in Dehgolan, also in the Kurdish region….
The police have said Amini fell ill as she waited with other women held by the morality police, who enforce strict rules in the Islamic republic requiring women to cover their hair and wear loose fitting clothes in public.
But her father has repeatedly said his daughter had no health problems, adding that she had suffered bruises to her legs. He held the police responsible for her death.
The protests have been most intense in the Kurdish region, where the authorities have previously put down unrest by the Kurdish minority numbering 8 million to 10 million.
Hengaw said 75 people were injured on Monday….
Videos on social media showed demonstrations in Tehran and spreading to cities such as Rasht, Mashhad and Isfahan.
A video shared by the 1500tasvir Twitter account, which publishes footage sent by its 70,000 followers, showed police cars with their windows smashed in Tehran, as a nearby security forces’ vehicle fired water canon towards protesters.
“People throwing rocks have advanced against the police. Death to the dictator!” a woman can be heard saying….
Offenders against Iran’s sharia, or Islamic law, and hijab rules face fines or arrest. But activists have recently urged women to remove veils despite the hardline rulers’ crackdown on “immoral behaviour”….

Hopefully this escalates into a fullscale insurrection – and not the January 6th kind

Five Iranians recently murdered by that brutal cruel vicious violent horrible Islamic regime of Iran , along with that nonsense of a woman being imprisoned for not wearing her hijab “properly.”
Even before Rasis this latest murderous in Iran its President Rasis he has been justifiably accused of being guilty of “crimes against humanity.”
The under the Islamic tyranny of the President of Iran Rasis, would by his callous Sharia law centered mentally be so vicious and murderous to have, this very year from January to March, have more than one hundred people put to death.
That despicable cruel and deadly character Rasis is in reality an inflictor of horrendous injustice. So much so that he has also been, rightly called the “hangman of Iran” which is a very fitting title for him.
For during the 1980’s he was the chief of that Islamic regimes” Death Committee” which was responsible for the murder of many people.
That tyrant of Iran , Rasis , is such a ruthless oppressive deadly fiend of a monster the the people of trapped in his Islamic tyranny live in fear because of him and other high ranking human rights violating Muslims villains in the Islamic regime.
Benjamin Franklin had explained about such awful dictators when he had printed in his periodical entitled POOR RICHARD’S ALMANAC which reads”Those who are feared are also hated.”
Walter Sieruk says
Way before this latest most recent murder of five people who had been engaging in a peaceful protest by that most horrible Islamic regime under the Islam tyranny of Rasis.that awful man been justifiably accused of being guilty of “crimes against humanity.”
The many murderous evils of oppression under Iran’s President Rasis and other tyrants of that regime before him is described in a similar way in the Bible. Which reads “All the days of the oppressed are wretched.” Proverbs 15:15. [N.I.V.]

Appalling. The Mullahs are vicious thugs.

where are the protests in the Western world either supporting or condemning this? The sooner Islam is eradicated the better for all. It should simply be consigned to its Textbooks on Library shelves for scholars to look at & wonder, “how can be people be so stupid & ignorant?”
