Iran protests: Fury at morality police sparks women's rights movement • FRANCE 24 English

There's been no let-up in Iran's biggest protests since 2019, which have seen unprecedented footage of public burnings of the hijab. Despite disruptions to the internet, popular unrest has flared for a sixth day across the country over the death in custody of Mahsa Amini. The 22-year old Kurdish woman had been detained by the morality police for improperly wearing her hijab. We ask our panel: how far will this women's rights movement go?

This is not the first nor the worst unrest in Iran, but it is the last hope of Iran's enemies to do something from within before things heat up globally. Right now Israel is on high alert in occupied lands and are expecting a massive civil unrest there while countries that are leading the unrest in Iran are very soon going to have not just unrest of their own but even revolutions. Winter is also nearby and unrest and revolutions are going to visit Europe as well. The world is about to unravel yet the people are bewitched and in tears for one Mahsa Amini while nearly ~19000 refugee women of your country are abused and exploited in EU. Let us see how it will all end, I'll be back in 6 months and make a reply here!

Even though I condemn the death of Ameni, I think it's not worth it to protest against a government that will never comply with the people. One death resulted in the deaths of 43 more people, all because of the protest. All these people who died in the protest could have been living peacefully with their families if they had not joined in the protest. As an Iranian, I support the government's mandate for the hijab. 90% of Iranian people support the mandate of wearing the hijab. Less than 0.001% of the people in Iran are protesting against the hijab. That does not represent the entire demographic of the country's population. Accidents can happen. The death of Masha Ameni happened because of a heart attack. I can definitely say that the police didn't want to kill her. As I said, accidents can happen. So don't blame the government. The media is hypocritic. They didn't publish any news when women were forbidden to wear hijab in some countries, even though the women wanted to wear it. But now they are publishing the news day and night.

Don't forget that France accommodated Khomeini in 1979 and launched him with a private air France flight to Persia.

I wonder how much of it really is fueled by the fact she could have been anybody. She wasn’t trying to make a political statement. She really wasn’t pushing boundaries. As someone said she could have been any woman in Iran.,

Mahsa Alimardani said the truth , thanks Mahsa , but Mahsa this situation could be a revolution and no one can predicts what would be happens later on .

[@Majid_Reza]

This is a tactic to scare the people. Try not to participate in it. Iranians are smart.

[@joemeyers4131]

Yes a revolution and overthrow other oppressive rules as well . You need this to be your all day .

[@thetayoung3066]

This is why in my opinion no society should be without the ability to protect themselves.

Great discussion ❤

[@joemeyers4131]

More than a discussion too since people are dying in cruel leadership over them . Join in words and not merely be a bystander .

[@paulheydarian1281]

Such a Terrible place to live. Morality police for an immoral gov't. The contradictions of the IRI never cease.

[@nt8894]

Welcome to any religious government anywhere in the world. That’s why a modern iran needs a secular constitution with laws from the UN Charter of human rights.

[@sloeberdoet]

@@nt8894 yes indeed look what it is like living in Afghanistan under Taliban and sharia rule.

[@juhakoivu589]

take the revolution back from the fanatics, overthrew the shaw for freedom only to be given another set of shackles under the guise of religious control.

[@g0l145]

The issue is not just the morality police, it’s the entire islamic republic who is the enemy of iran, Iranian people, and culture. Iranians are as a whole more Sufi/spiritual than practicing muslims. The chants of protestors target the person on top, and the entire regime with many chanting “we will fight, we will die, we will take iran back”, this incident was the last straw- Is the context of the protests reframed in this program to justify president Macron meeting Raisi, whose human rights violation, and murdering of numerous Iranians is well known by all.

[@sloeberdoet]

you see the hypocrisy of the west. It is the same with Saoudi Arabia and the emirates. West is not condemning because they need their resources so much. Oil en gas is more important in this context than basic human rights.

[@sveadashcam]

At 24:13 when speaking of the slogan "Women, life, freedom", I would like to point out that while she might have a point about it, it is also a slogan and the mindset of many Kurdish movements, a slogan that has been prevalent for a long time. Just see the demonstrations in Kurdistan, where they chant "Jin, jiyan, azadî". This is also familiar among the more left leaning Kurdish movements such as Komele, PJAK, and PDKI I think. Could it be that this slogan has come to popular use due to the fact Jina was Kurdish and that the unrest in Kurdistan is rife?

[@surajrshetty]

Even I was guessing so. It’s minority fighting for its rights rather then fighting against hijab.

[@sveadashcam]

@@surajrshetty Yes, that is correctly described. Minorities fighting for their rights along with a general population (Especially the ones born after 1979) tired of being oppressed with these dumb and dictatorial laws

[@sheenafatahi1841]

It is a kurdish slogan, and wierd that they don't mention the entnicity perspectiv, also her name is Jina, Mahsa is the forced, colonial name.

[@sveadashcam]

@@sheenafatahi1841 Exactly, zor bedaxewe!

Bravo For Revealing The Sad Reality Of Iranians Lives Under The Islamic Regime! ❤🙏🏼

[@aryobarzan3644]

There is a huge gap between Iranian people and the government ruling over the country in many aspects of life style at their home and Ideology to some extent that even people believe the authorities who are in power are not real Irani since they don’t understand the people goal and needs this is the big complication for the world

[@yahudi7253]

We stand by brave Irani women. Best version of feminism right there. Strong, really strong women. I am atheist but still will say I saw Goddess Durga in that girl who danced and threw hijab in fire.
