Disgusting women.

Stone them to death, that's what I say.

Don't they know burqa is the only way to obey Allah?

The iranian men don't seem to mind, it's not like they shouted or beat her - the way how their government promotes hijab by creating and instilling fear from men.

As she said there:

Quote:
These videos capture more than just women fighting back against oppression; they also gauge the reaction of men, who are shown responding positively to such a rare - and illegal - sight. Some say nothing at all, but crucially, the women are not abused or insulted, contradicting the narrative pushed by the Iranian Government, who Ms Alinejad says warn unveiled women open themselves up to violent attacks by spurring male urges.


Remember, ~+37 years ago Iran wasn't like this at all.



If you watch the first video in the independent article, you will notice that the old white-haired men were the most oblivious.

It's all horrible horses**t.

Women shouldn't fear men, and men shouldn't fear women (or the authorities). We are all in this together, and we all have to love each other together.

You might not appreciate this, but I'm pointing the finger at Islam.

More like 35 years ago....before the Ayatollah.

Under the Shah, Iran was actually quite secular, similar to Turkey.

Big friend of the Zionist Entity too.

Those were good days. The Iranians in those days were fine people.

The spirit of those people is still alive. Bring it to Iran!

The Shah was no bargain, either. He was an autocrat.

From the viewpoint of a modern secular Muslim, though, he was much better than the Ayatollahs.
