i was actually scared to post this, so if you have anything hateful to say, please do not interact with this post. thank you!

let's talk about mahsa amini.

so i'm sure you've all heard the name recently: she's been in the news a lot, because she was an iranian woman who died.

let's ask google how she died, shall we?

hm.

i'm going to have to disagree with you there, state authorities of iran.

mahsa amini was 22 years old. on the 13th of september, she travelled to tehran to visit her family with her brother, kiaresh amini. she was at the entrance of the hiqqani highway when she was arrested.

but why was she arrested? was she speeding on hiqqani highway or something?

oh no, of course not! it was because she was wearing her hijab "inappropriately".

she was told she'd be taken to a detention centre for a "briefing class" and released shortly afterwards, except she never made it. instead she was at kasra hospital - where she died on friday, febuary 16th.

she was in a coma for three days.

in an instagram post which has now been deleted, the hospital admitted she was brain dead on arrival.

"Resuscitation was performed on the patient, the heartbeat returned and the patient was admitted to the intensive care unit," they originally wrote, reports The Guardian. "Unfortunately, after 48 hours on Friday, the patient suffered a cardiac arrest again, due to brain death. Despite the efforts of the medical team, they failed to revive her and the patient died." - Harper's Bazaar

the "guidance patrol" who was supposed to be taking her to a detention centre, beat her.

the iranian police commander, hossein rahimi, claims that amini's death was simply an "unfortunate accident."

here's what amini's dad had to say.

“They said Mahsa had heart disease and epilepsy but as the father who raised her for 22 years, I say loudly that Mahsa did not have any illness. She was in perfect health. The person who hit my daughter should be put on trial in a public court, not a fake trial that results in reprimands and expulsions."

and all of this, such a brutal death covered up with attempted lies because of what?

a hijab.

iran has made the hijab mandatory since 1976.

and clearly, women who don't follow end up like amini.

i am a hijabi teenager, living far, far away of iran, and i think that's disgustingly wrong.

i wear a hijab for my lord. it was my decision.

wearing a hijab is for Allah. it's not for men. it's not for police.

and you, as a man, have no right to tell a woman how to wear her hijab.

you think Allah is pleased with you? for forcing these women to wear hijab? for killing them if you don't?

personally, i highly doubt it.

to any man who has forced a woman to wear a hijab, punishing her for not wearing it correctly, you are disgusting. you terrify me and disgust me and you are the reason people see islam as a terrorist religion.

and to think that in france, women are fighting to wear the hijab.

for god's sake, just let women wear what they want.

please.

Mahsa Amini: Women take headscarves off in protest at funeral - BBC News

Mahsa Amini, 22, died on Friday, days after eyewitnesses said she was beaten in a police van in Tehran - allegations denied by police.

Some women at the ceremony reportedly removed their headscarves in protest at the compulsory wearing of hijabs.

Mourners chanted "death to the dictator", with videos showing police later firing on a crowd.

The funeral took place in Ms Amini's hometown, Saqez, in the western province of Kurdistan.

According to videos published on social media, locals gathered very early in the morning to prevent Iranian security forces rushing through the burial in secret to avoid protests.

Reports suggested that some angry protesters marched toward the local governor's office to protest about the death. According to videos received and verified by the BBC Persian Service, the security forces opened fire on protesters.

No offence, but if you are not a hijabi but you still wrap or wear a headscarf for any other reason, whether it be religious, spiritual, sensory, or mental health related -- you need to support the protesters in Iran. Especially if you live in America or another democratic country where you have the choice to wrap or cover part time or full time. You need to support your headcovering kin. They don't have the capacity to share with others what is happening to them due to Internet suppression and media control. But you can be their voices. Don't let your sisters down.

The Iranian Regime is going to execute rapper Toomaj Salehi for supporting protests of Jina Amini’s murder by the regime in his songs.

Iranian activist Elica Le Bon says, “Iranians in the diaspora picked up on the fact that the regime tends not to execute people who become known to the international community. We have seen many examples of prisoners that were either released on bail or had their sentences commuted through our “say their names to save their lives” campaign on social media, using hashtags to garner attention for their causes, and even before social media existed, through getting the stories of political prisoners to international media outlets. Once reported on, and once the eyes shift to the regime and the reality of its pending brutality, realizing that the action is not worth the repercussions, we have seen them back down and not execute. For that reason, this is part of an urgent campaign for readers to talk about Toomaj as much as you can, using the hashtag #FreeToomaj or #ToomajSalehi. Every comment makes a difference, and if we were wrong, what did we lose by trying?”

Las fuerzas de seguridad de Irán reprimen las protestas un año después de la muerte de Mahsa Amini

Las fuerzas de seguridad iraníes reprimieron las protestas en las zonas kurdas del país el sábado y detuvieron brevemente al padre de Mahsa Amini, un año después de que la muerte de la joven bajo custodia desencadenara algunos de los peores disturbios políticos en cuatro décadas.

Los Guardias Revolucionarios detuvieron a un ciudadano con doble nacionalidad sospechoso de "intentar organizar disturbios y sabotajes", informó la agencia oficial de noticias IRNA, uno de varios arrestos de "contrarrevolucionarios" y "terroristas".

Al caer la noche del sábado, una fuerte presencia de fuerzas de seguridad en las zonas mayoritariamente kurdas de Irán parecía haber disuadido manifestaciones de protesta a gran escala, pero grupos de derechos humanos informaron de enfrentamientos esporádicos en varias zonas del país.

La muerte de Mahsa Amini, una mujer kurda de 22 años arrestada por la policía moral el año pasado por supuestamente violar los códigos de vestimenta obligatorios, desencadenó meses de algunas de las mayores protestas contra el gobierno clerical chiíta de la República Islámica jamás vistas y atrajo la atención internacional. condenación.

A pesar de la fuerte presencia de seguridad el sábado, hubo indicios de acciones de protesta en varios puntos del país. Videos publicados en las redes sociales mostraban a personas reunidas en una avenida principal de la capital, Teherán, animando a una joven pareja que protestaba mientras los conductores tocaban las bocinas de sus autos en señal de apoyo.

IRNA informó que el fuego envolvió el pabellón de mujeres de la prisión de Qarchak en la provincia de Teherán antes de ser extinguido después de que los convictos en espera de ejecución prendieron fuego a sus ropas. Dijo que no hubo víctimas.

La Red de Derechos Humanos del Kurdistán, que dijo que el incidente estaba relacionado con las protestas, dijo que fuerzas especiales entraron en la sala, golpearon a las mujeres y dispararon perdigones.

En otro incidente, el grupo de derechos humanos Hengaw dijo que las fuerzas de seguridad abrieron fuego en la ciudad kurda de Mahabad, hiriendo al menos a una persona. También dijo que varias personas resultaron heridas en la ciudad de Kermanshah, pero no hubo confirmación oficial de ninguno de los incidentes.

En Saqez, la ciudad natal de Amini, en el noroeste de Irán, la agencia de noticias semioficial Fars informó que la policía había herido gravemente con una pistola de perdigones a un hombre que "ignoró una advertencia policial". Dijo que el hombre estaba en una sala de cuidados intensivos después de ser sometido a una operación, pero no proporcionó más detalles.

Las publicaciones en las redes sociales también mostraban imágenes de residentes de ciudades como Teherán gritando consignas contra el líder supremo, el ayatolá Ali Jamenei, como "¡Muerte al dictador!" así como protestas en zonas como Gohardasht, en la ciudad de Karaj al oeste de Teherán, y en Mashhad en el noreste.

Un vídeo publicado en las redes sociales mostraba a un grupo de manifestantes en Gohardasht cantando "Somos una gran nación y recuperaremos Irán", mientras los conductores tocaban las bocinas y gritaban aliento. Reuters no pudo autenticar de inmediato el video.

En las manifestaciones que siguieron a la muerte de Amini, más de 500 personas, entre ellas 71 menores, murieron, cientos resultaron heridas y miles fueron arrestadas, dijeron grupos de derechos humanos. Irán llevó a cabo siete ejecuciones relacionadas con los disturbios.

El sábado, se advirtió al padre de Mahsa, Amjad Amini, que no celebrara el aniversario de la muerte de su hija antes de ser liberado, dijo la Red de Derechos Humanos del Kurdistán, y la familia no pudo realizar una vigilia planificada junto a su tumba.

IRNA negó en un informe que Amjad Amini hubiera sido arrestado, pero no dijo si fue detenido brevemente o advertido.

Anteriormente, las redes sociales y los informes de grupos de derechos humanos hablaban de fuerzas de seguridad tomando posiciones alrededor de la casa de Amini en Saqez, en el oeste de Irán.

'MOVIMIENTO HISTÓRICO'

La represión de las protestas se produjo cuando la condena del organismo de control nuclear de las Naciones Unidas a la decisión de Teherán de excluir a varios inspectores del país subrayó el aislamiento de Irán de Occidente.

En Washington, cientos de manifestantes se reunieron en un parque frente a la Casa Blanca con retratos de Amini. Los oradores encabezaron a la multitud con cánticos de "Di su nombre… Mahsa Amini", y también recitaron "¡Somos la revolución" y "¡Derechos humanos para Irán!".

En una declaración del viernes, el presidente de Estados Unidos, Joe Biden, dijo: "La historia de Mahsa no terminó con su brutal muerte. Ella inspiró un movimiento histórico - Mujer, Vida, Libertad - que ha impactado a Irán e influido en personas de todo el mundo".

Gran Bretaña impuso el viernes sanciones a cuatro funcionarios iraníes y Estados Unidos dijo que estaba sancionando a más de dos docenas de personas y entidades relacionadas con la "represión violenta" de las protestas por parte de Irán.

Sin nombrar a Biden, el portavoz del Ministerio de Asuntos Exteriores de Irán, Nasser Kanaani, calificó de "dobles raseros y mentiras" las expresiones occidentales de apoyo a los derechos de las mujeres en Irán.

Los medios estatales también descartaron informes de disturbios y huelgas en varias ciudades de la región del Kurdistán iraní. IRNA dijo que Saqez estaba "completamente tranquilo" y que los llamados a ataques en las zonas kurdas habían fracasado debido a "la vigilancia de la gente y la presencia de fuerzas militares y de seguridad".

La agencia citó a un funcionario de la provincia de Kurdistán diciendo: "Varios agentes afiliados a grupos contrarrevolucionarios que habían planeado crear caos y preparar material para los medios fueron arrestados en las primeras horas de esta mañana".

En un informe del mes pasado, Amnistía Internacional dijo que las autoridades iraníes "han estado sometiendo a las familias de las víctimas a arrestos y detenciones arbitrarias, imponiendo restricciones crueles a las reuniones pacíficas en las tumbas y destruyendo las lápidas de las víctimas".

Muchos periodistas, abogados, activistas, estudiantes, académicos, artistas, figuras públicas y miembros de minorías étnicas acusados de tener vínculos con la ola de protestas, así como familiares de manifestantes muertos en los disturbios, han sido arrestados, citados, amenazados o despedidos de sus puestos de trabajo. en las últimas semanas, según grupos de derechos humanos iraníes y occidentales.

El diario iraní Etemad informó en agosto que el abogado de la familia de Amini también enfrentaba cargos de "propaganda contra el sistema". Si es declarado culpable, Saleh Nikbakht se enfrenta a una pena de cárcel de entre uno y tres años.

Iran protester: 'They said if we didn't keep quiet, they would rape us' - BBC News

They put me on the ground, and an officer put his boot on my back. He kicked me in my stomach, tied my hands, picked me from my arms, and then pushed me into a van."

This is how 51-year-old Maryam, a protester arrested last week in central Tehran, described the moment Iranian security forces detained her.

Protests have spread across in Iran since the death on 16 September of Mahsa Amini, a 22-year-old woman who was detained by the morality police in the capital three days earlier for allegedly breaking strict hijab (headscarf) rules.

Police maintain that she collapsed at a detention centre after suffering a heart attack, but her family allege that officers beat her head with a baton and banged her head against one of their vehicles.

The protests sparked by her death, led mainly by women, began with demands to end the mandatory hijab laws. But they have now turned into nationwide demonstrations against Iran's leaders and the entire clerical establishment.
