Do you remember Mahsa Amini?
She was the beautiful 22-year-old young lady who was put into a coma and died after being tortured by Iranian authorities for not properly wearing a hijab almost a year ago.
Mahsa Amini's death sparked massive protests last year, and although things have slowed down, the fight is still on.
Just yesterday, during a commemoration ceremony for Iranian fighters killed in Iraq and Syria, Iran's President Ebrahim Raisi vowed (or should I say, threatened) that the Islamic republic's mandatory dress code will be enforced.
Islamic law requires women to wear a hijab or a headscarf.
I am telling you that the removal of the hijab will definitely come to an end, do not worry.
Sounds threatening and ominous...
According to CBS News, the crowd cheered Raisi on as he made his remarks.
The Iranian president said some of the women who have declined to cover their heads in public recently were "ignorant" and "needed to be woken up" — helped to understand that they are not serving the national interests of their country. But a "small number" of women, he claimed, had been "trained by foreigners" in an "organized" bid to undermine Iran's government.
These ongoing protests have been the country's largest against Iran's ruling clerics in decades.
Since the protests erupted across the country, Iranian authorities have ruled with an iron fist, cracking down on women defying dress code laws. Not only are women under attack but anyone encouraging women to remove their hijabs is being prosecuted in criminal courts and would have no right to appeal.
The Islamic regime has increased surveillance cameras on the streets, and executions have increased by 75% from 2021 to 2022.
Iran's "morality police" are back on the streets in full force after pulling back last year because of the mass protests and international press.
So, where is the Western feminist outrage???
