Current Events

We need to start protecting one another by any means necessary!!

I believe the time has come to protect each other however we could by any means we can!

The IRI have never enforced the constitution nor has never comply or acted upon it. The IRI have always acted "unlawfully" and "illegally"! Why should we as the "people" be bound to a "law-less" constitution when the IRI itself isnot bound to it?

I think it is time to "claim" our country, we are bigger in numbers, we are smarter over all(educated) and we have more power and more influence altogether! We need to get organized and act on/for a certain goal and move that way!

we are going to lose lives(as we have been losing lives) but the difference is that our next generations wont pay for our folly!

We need to fight back with vengeance.

You don't know that the police aren't doing anything wrong. The motorcyclists may have been part of the apparent protest against the new stricter dress code crackdown being carried out in cars and on motorcycles. Here's an Iran report from yesterday which seems to refer to incidents like this:

سرهنگ خرم روي تصريح كرد: در اين مدت افزون بر 90 فرد بد حجاب در شهرستان
همدان به علت توجه نكردن به هشدارهاي ماموران گشت ارشاد، پرخاش، درگيري و
ايراد خسارت به مامور يا خودرو انتظامي ، دستگير و پرونده آنها به دستگاه
قضايي ارجاع شده است.

وي اضافه كرد: اين افراد را عمدتا مزاحمان خياباني كه با خودرو و موتور
سيكلت براي شهروندان مزاحمت ايجاد كرده تشكيل مي دهند و در اين راستا 40
دستگاه خودرو و 10 دستگاه موتور سيكلت توقيف و به پاركينگ منتقل شد و
مالكان آنها نيز با دستگاه قضايي معرفي شدند.

رييس پليس اطلاعات و امنيت همدان تاكيد كرد: پليس امنيت با افراد
بدپوشش و بدحجاب كه لباس هاي غير متعارف پوشيده و به تذكرهاي پليس نيز
تمكين نمي كنند با جديت و بدون تسامح برخورد مي كند.

وي گفت: بر اساس دستورالعمل هاي ابلاغي پوشيدن مانتوي كوتاه، بلوز نازك
و كوتاه، روسري شالي نازك، آرايش غليظ و زننده و استفاده از زيور آلات و
علائم گروه هاي شيطان پرستي و مذاهب نوظهور و همچنين پوشيسدن لباس داراي
علائم شيطان پرستي از مظاهر و مصاديق شيطان پرستي به شمار مي رود.

i support IRIPF

this is not 4 freedoms and the officer did noting wrong.

is called RESISTING ARREST hapens in evry country.how would canadian police handle woman?

just like druggees and rapists punishment, iranian anti regime people dont think deeply b4 speaking.

You make a good point regarding fairness in assigning blame. Even beyond ethics, as a strategy the IRI opposition needs to keep the moral high ground. The uncommitted are unlikely to start sympathizing with a protest group who appears self serving in its judgments. 

Also, good eye about 0:36. 

"John" Jaan.

OK, we fair people of iran, promise not to ever  assign blame to islamist regime.

aslan goh khordim!

happy now?

I'm well aware of what has and does happen in the evil IRI régime, however don't you think that it is unfair to assign blame if none exists?  This video is inconclusive in revealing what this woman may or may not have done, so perhaps her arrest is justified, perhaps not.

Here is a nice site:

Just scroll down the page and you will see much material on this evil cult called islam.

And a book on Muhammad, the founder of the cult of islam:

any one knows?

Does any one know what was the reason police runing after this woman? where the conflict initiated? what was the problem? Seems people were stand by indifferently or rather silently. No intervention.

At the end, it was good to see a young attractive lady on street of Iran without hejab under dictatorship of mullahs at the present of law enforcement officials. It reminded me of Iran during shah's days. I am sure it is going to get repeated again till hejab gets illiminated. Just the matter of time.  

yAghi, John

We R not judging IRI just because of this one video. We used to  live with them, we have family members that R IRI supporters, we know their mentality. We know what they think and what they do. We know how brutal and barbaric they R.

Traffic misdemeanour?

I don't know if it is the same woman who was later arrested, but at about 0:36 some doofus is standing on the seat of a motorcycle that speeds past; perhaps the cops arrested her for her own protection?  Several times each year in Canada we hear of similar antics that end up with the death of a young person.  It's called car-surfing, although in reality it should be called attempted suicide.

are we missing the main question and making a quick judgment?!

Interesting, we are all judging the video and the behavior of the police and public without knowing the fact. The big question is: why she was being arrested?

I looked at the video few times. It is not clear to me at all they were after her for hejaab, they do not look like hejab police, which usually are accompanied by some women police. The street is full of young people, which they have refused to help her or support her. Have anyone of you thought that she must have done something wrong and running away for a reason. I do not have enough information from the video to make any judgment. I have no respect fo the government and I am not supporting any act of the police, however, we complain every day that the police do not act for the crimes in the streets. Just because she is a girl does not make her crimeless, I have personally seen some distributing drugs in the street, etc. The police in U.S.A would act much worse in such situation.

You Islamic piece of terd. WHEN DID I SAY "Support military action against Iran"? Show me the quote. I think Jahanshah has a lot to answer for to allow ignorant members of the Islamic Republic.to be given the oxygen of freedom.of speech when thousands of Iranians are lingeeing in prison for the very basic liberty you take for granted.

Of "MILITARY ACTION AGAINST IRAN"

Nobody stopping anyone from writing counter-blogs on let's say, Fred, on a daily basis. I found blaming JJ, as a shortcut to self-denialville.

Simorgh anti-Iranians: "SUPPORT MILITARY ACTION AGAINST IRAN"

Only an anti-Iranian propagandist with an ulterior motive would so actively pursue a public relations campaign to bomb his own country.

Shame on Jahanshah Javid for allowing the once respectable Iranian.com to be sold out as a medium for anti-Iranian information warfare by enemies of Iranians like Simorgh, Fred, etc.  Obviously this is not going on without his consent.   

My candidate for who to beat up, dear Jahanshah!

My number one choice would be one of those two "khaleh sooske" on "woman and makeup" video on the first page.

Next any men with beard that might look like Khamenei and any men with "tah-rish" who resembles AN.

But if you couldn't find any of these excellent candidates, please look for any wall next to you...or if the walls are too far, just pound on the keyboard real hard. I'm sure you'll feel better afterwards..I hope.

But now typin this comment I ot so anry that now one of my keys is not workin anymore..:(

"check your email"

we know who you are, we even got your email address !!!!

well done,  this is precisely what I meant by the "normal process". In your defence,  Contrary to general opinion on this site you are quite capable of comprehending simple statements.

:)

"Personal business must yield to collective interest."

So many useless people

This is one of those occasions that you think every nation deserves its rulers.

"[N]ormal process"

The norm for the day is "ignoring me"..........Check your email:))

Cry all you like nothings gonna change

I'll say it again. Your words of condemnation mean NOTHING. Your indignant mutterings will change NOTHING. 

What do you want from this suffering population? To flock to the streets and shout 'death to the dictator' and 'Allah o Akbar' from the rooftops? Did that change the behaviour of the regime apart from making it clampdown even more and execute in greater numbers than before? Do you think a mass movement of any kind is going to change on the ground without outside help? Keep on dreaming. Or maybe thats exactly what you want: nothing to change. 

I know every one here. You'll get angry for five minites and then you forget about it until the next murder, street arrest and torture of young innocent Iranian men and women. Then you go about the rest of your complacent lives and shout 'No War' and 'No sanctions'. Then it all starts again like a vicious circle.

All the while the Islamic Republic keeeeeeeeeeeeps on terrorising and you are unwitting agents in its perpetuation.  

Namardha all over, no one came to her rescue

Shame shame shame

Shame shame shame

Women have specially been the target of IRI oppressive law

Standing up to & resisting those oppressive law must be practiced by all and as we see here with much bravery and I honor those who risk much but standing up to this oppressive regime.

پندار نیک: "When she is no longer high on crystal"

You are too quick off the mark today.

I thought the normal process was: Execution/"accidental death" by beating in jail or at ones father's funeral, followed by vilification on iranian.com! 

"Personal business must yield to collective interest."

....

Until the day that we do not learn to tolerate each other Iran shall and will never be a democratic states ......  and that is to accept individual's right not the right of majority ......  

Leftist and monarchist and MKO , etc ..... would not have turned this to a better Iran ...

The problem is not the ideoplogy the peoblem is dictatorship ...

But having said that as I mentioned numerous times before on this site... the worst type of all dictatorships is the religious ones ....

What Iran is facing today is what Christianity faced in the dark ages ..... the mullas are not acting like  devil ... they are THE DEVILS. ....

   Jahasnah Don't get

 Jahasnah

Don't get Angry get even. You want to beat somebody up? THEN SUPPORT MILITARY ACTION.

A woman is being pulled by the air and dragged in the street like a dog on the anniversary of Neda Asgh Soltan's death.

Who is going to come to the rescue of these women? Trita Parsi? The NIAC? Or even the increasingly bi orze Shahzadeh Reza Pahlavi?

If any Iranian  had any moral scruple they would put up with this. Please fight this cancer called the Islamic Republic from top to bottom. 

Write to your congressman and lend your voice  to military action. Please give VIOLENCE against the fanatical Islamist regime a chance. 

And as always

People are just standing there watching. Bah bah.

Did not get it

Was she on a bike or what happened?

It is funny though when you are in Iran usually police do not care about traffic at all, since they do most of the wrong doings in traffic themselves. They are most into harrassing people

Raoul

We feel like shit, we feel like that for the last 31 years and 6 mo. Yeah JJ I feel like that too. I am going to hike a mountain and try to forget about this video. Pasadena has beautiful mountains. PENDAR

She doesn't seem like she is riding high on drugs, stop bull shitting US.

.....

Yolanda .... you do not get the FIFA point that I made and so do the rest of your friends who sing like bunch of canneries for each other on the topic of FIFA by insulting me 

Fred ..... I  am so agree with your statement Cause I always say one shall reap what he sow  that day is around the corner ....  injustices in Iran are beyond any one's imagination especially for those who live in west and enjoy the freedom here ..... 

PN ... are you for real?  since when police arrest people in Iran for not wearing hemet?  they are like an entire family with three kids  on one tiny bike driving like crazy in the streets and no one cares if they have helmet on or not ....  you must be kidding?
