There are billions of people in the world who believe in good and evil. Sure. My opinion is that you're making charged emotional appeals and cheapening what could otherwise be a much better argument. It's the same thing as the conspiracy nuts talking about satanic pedophile cults, or calling people Nazis etc. Go ahead and keep doing it if you want, but charging your language with hysterical hyperbole just makes you look unreasonable, and that part is not an opinion. I am not the enemy. The Islamic Republic is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CITIZEN_2015 Posted October 22, 2022 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2022 21 hours ago, Moonbox said: I'm not sure how many actual Persians you know (maybe you're Persian - I dunno), but what you're describing is Zoroastrianism, which is close to a dead faith with fewer than 200,000 adherents globally. Most Iranians (or Persians for that matter) do not follow it. In fact the main slogan in this women led revolution sang by the nation in the streets of Iran which is WOMEN LIFE FREEDOM is coming from the ancient Persian culture before the Arab invasion and forceful imposition of Islam by sword. Persian culture considered women as the source of life and their freedom as a symbol for a free society. We had Female Kings running the Persian empire 1500 years ago.

Moonbox Posted October 22, 2022 Report Share Posted October 22, 2022 The bizarre and sad thing is that women often had more rights in classical times than they do today in many places. Whether that's Persian women or Roman women (the two great empires of this hemisphere at the time), women had more freedom and self-determination that they did under the theocratic dogma of Ibrahamic faiths.

I think you have misunderstood the whole revolution. No one is suggesting that. Even the son of former Shah has clearly indicated that he is not interested in power. People are out there risking their lives shouting Women, Life Freedom. All they ask is for dictatorship to be removed and replaced by democracy so that the nation can freely decide for themselves on the form of the future government, not a bunch of corrupt aging murderous mullahs.

Contrarian Posted October 23, 2022 Report Share Posted October 23, 2022 Latest Key Takeaways Anti-regime protests occurred in at least 24 cities in 18 provinces on October 22—a significant increase from the protest activity in recent days. Some marginalised segments of the reformist faction are continuing to criticize the regime crackdown. Anti-regime hacker group Black Reward published 50 gigabytes of documents related to the Iranian nuclear program. The Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) and regime media channels claimed a new separatist movement has formed in Azerbaijan’s autonomous Nakhchivan region. https://www.understandingwar.org/backgrounder/iran-crisis-update-october-22 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It hurts me to have to say this, but: Iranians allowed this situation to develop without much resistance, or they just ran away and hid in another country. To ask the West to come in and risk being tagged with a hundred claims of interference, imperialism, etc. would not likely go down well with voters over here. I had asked my Iranian friends about this many years ago. They explained that there was (and IS) a significant portion of the population that remained relatively uneducated and in support of the Imams. Not sure what the situation on the ground is now.

Contrarian Posted October 27, 2022 Report Share Posted October 27, 2022 (edited) Speaking from Tehran, Al Jazeera’s Dorsa Jabbari said an estimated 10,000 people were reportedly in attendance at the cemetery to pay their respects to Amini. “Following the services that took place, when people were dispersing that’s when the disputes erupted between the people there and the security forces – as a result of which, we heard that the government there has decided to cut off the internet due to security considerations,” added Jabbari. “That means that nearly 1.5 million people in Kurdistan province will not have access to the internet for the foreseeable future.” Earlier on Wednesday, all schools and universities across the province had been ordered closed, with officials citing an “increase in the spread of influenza” (right) as the reason. via AlJazeera English Edited October 27, 2022 by Contrarian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
