The regime is once again resorting to terrorizing its people into submission.
“Against them make ready your strength to the utmost of your power, including steeds of war, to strike terror into the hearts of the enemies of Allah and your enemies…” (Qur’an 8:60)
“Iranians hold 12th night of protests; ex-president Rafsanjani’s daughter arrested,” AFP, September 27, 2022:
TEHRAN — Iranians on Tuesday staged a 12th straight night of protests over the death in custody of Mahsa Amini, in defiance of a crackdown that a rights group says has killed more than 75 people….
On Tuesday authorities arrested the daughter of ex-president Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani for inciting protests, the Tasnim news agency said.
“Faezeh Hashemi has been arrested in the east of Tehran by a security agency for inciting rioters to street protests,” Tasnim reported, without elaborating.
Hashemi, a former lawmaker and a women’s rights activist, has had previous run-ins with the law in the Islamic republic.
In July, she was charged with carrying out propaganda activity against the country and blasphemy in social media comments, the judiciary said at the time.
Hashemi was reported to have said Iran’s demand for the Revolutionary Guards to be removed from a US terror list was “damaging” to the country’s “national interests,” according to media reports then.
Opposition media based abroad said widespread protests continued in different cities, but activists said internet restrictions were making it increasingly tough to get video footage out….
Iran’s semi-official Fars news agency said “around 60” people had been killed since Amini’s death on September 16, up from the official death toll of 41 authorities reported on Saturday.
But the Oslo-based group Iran Human Rights (IHR) said at least 76 people have been killed in the crackdown.
Officials said Monday they had made more than 1,200 arrests. Those taken into custody have included activists, lawyers and journalists as well as protesters.
Health Minister Bahram Einollahi, quoted by the official news agency IRNA, accused the protesters of destroying 72 ambulances, while activists based abroad say the authorities have been using ambulances to transport security forces….
Video footage and death certificates obtained by IHR showed that “live ammunition is being directly fired at protesters,” he charged.
Riot police in black body armor have beaten protesters with truncheons in running street battles, and students have torn down large pictures of Khamenei and his late predecessor Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini….
Mahsa Alimardani, senior Iran researcher for freedom of expression group Article 19, said the internet blackout was as bad as during deadly November 2019 protests that erupted over fuel price rises….

That brutal heartless helpless defenseless young woman by those Muslim thugs in uniform who are called Iran’s “morality police” by that misogynistic Islamic tyranny of Iran was a horrendous evil and the Iranian people do have every right to raise un in protest and revolt against that vicious and murderous Islamic regime.
The terrible reality is the callous murder of Mahsa Amini such hooligans who are Iran’s Islamic state police has occured before repeatedly. So it’s no wonder that the Iranian people are have had enough of that hideous and horrendously wicked “mullah regime” in Iran.
One example of how that anti-female Muslim regime murders girls and young women that cruel and brutal despicable Islamic tyranny of Iran was when a teenage girl in Iran was talking to her boyfriend on the phone and then the Islamic state “police” walked over to her and shot her dead. They did that wicked and malicious thing to her because she was talking to her boyfriend, and they also didn’t like her clothing. [1]
That was a clear-cut case of murder and vicious Islamic madness by Iran’s Islamic state “police”, who call themselves the “Revolutionary Guards”, they got away with their hideous and malice –filled evil because the mullahs as well as other villains in power in that tyrannical Islamic regime.

The vicious murder of Mahsa Amini ,of which the misogyny filled Islamic tyranny of Iran is completely responsible for and totally guilty of is a strong reflection of the tyrannical controlling deadly and anti-female religion of Islam.
As revealed by a scholar of Islam who revealed in her book “Control of behavior and disregard for human life are key elements in Islam ideology.” Furthermore, the author also exposed that `” Women is Islam are considered unclean, deemed inferior even to dirt.” [1]

Walter Sieruk says
O my ! ,another keyboarding error of my part It’s obviously pages 171,172 and not 171,171.
Nevertheless , the point still stands which is horrible appalling dreadful and deadly misogynistic tyranny is an horrendous abomination and should fall.
Walter Sieruk says
The cold blooded and vicious murder of Mahsa Amini is one of the many evil fruits of the horrible Islamic tyranny of Iran.
Furthermore,there is an old Latin saying that the Iranian people need to heed regarding those wicked oppressive tyrants that they exist under. That saying is ‘nil carborundum illegitimi” Which means “Don’t let the bastards grind you down.”
For Iran’s President Ebrahim Raisi and Ayatollah Ali Khamenei along with the other ayatollahs and mullahs who al have such terrible influence in Iran’s parliament are all indeed, bastards . Meaning they are all ,as it’s been termed “Bastards of the Devil.”
For such dictators who viciously oppress the people are a reflection of the Bible’s book of Ecclesiastes which in 4:1 reads ” I saw the oppressed – and they have no comforter : power was on the side of their oppressors.” [N.I.V.]
Likewise, in Proverbs 15:15 reads “All the days of the oppressed are wretched.”

Iran: 12th night of protests, ex-president Rafsanjani’s daughter arrested

Good for her for speaking out! A brave woman.
Walter Sieruk says
The very existence of that oppressive brutal cruel murderous misogynistic Islamic tyrannical Islamic regime of Iran is an abomination.
Fitna says
Protests only really work in western or free nations where politicians/elites might be more open to change by persuasion, not always though.
However doing the same under brutal regimes which only understand force/violence is basically committing suicide and is largely pointless.
The only thing it can do is maybe call attention to other nations that can try to put pressure but without military intervention nothing will change.
They’d be better using their energy to organize and form their own well-armed militias and then work to overthrow this evil regime.
Islam-as we see in practice, is the inversion of good and evil. To the Muslim fanatics these protesters are evil and they’re the good who follow god’s commands.
This ideology makes it largely impossible for humans to come together and compromise, so the only way to resolve this conflict is by warfare.
It’d be great if western govt’s could step up and provide pro-freedom, anti-Islam Iranians with weapons, and the Iranian people can take care of the rest.
Muslims have brought this same battle to our lands and if we don’t keep their population small, eventually they’ll do the same to us. I hope “the world really is watching.”

Yes, and this also applies to Leftism.

What the heads of the Islamic regime of Iran really mean when they say that they will “act decisively” against the Iranian people who are protesting, actually means those tyrants in power in that Islamic tyranny will use the mayhem in the protests as an excuse to come down with vicious malicious brutal deadly violence against people who only want their basic human rights by being free of horrendous tyrannical oppression. In other words,the heads of that used the chaos as an excuse to inflict pain , misery and death on people who only want to be free from tyranny. As its been wisely said that “Evil is always looking for an excuse.”
PRCS says
This is NOT a problem exclusive to the Islamic Republic of Iran.
It is an Islam problem.
I assume Linda Sarsour, Ilhan Omar, and thousands of other Muslimas in the U.S. (including recent arrivals from the Muslim paradise in Afghanistan) who–under no legal obligation to do so here–wear hijab because they and most of the world’s Muslim population, Iranian Muslims included, believe Qur’an mandates it.
Will ‘our’ Muslims ever denounce the Iranian government’s enforcement of sharia?
