• What’s happening in Iran?

By: Navid Minaee

The people of Iran, after what they call it Islamic election and as an excuse to protest against the obvious fraud in election; gathered in Millions in the streets of Iran. No doubt that people were objecting to the result of the election. People were objecting to a government, which has played with their sense of intelligence to be able to continue with its suppression politics via the Ahamdi Nejad for the next 4 years. Ahmadi Nejad whom has entered the politics stage in Iran with the platform of wide suppression and censorship of any objection; during the first 4 years of his presidency has faced workers strike, women and youth protests against the mid-ages rules of Islam, poverty, miserable situation, inflation and unemployment. Instead, he has large investments in riot police. Police maneuvering in Tehran which is an unlikely politic act of any government to face the protesters is one of the Ahmadi Nejad’s ways to suppress people.

However, the people of Iran have been under the must severe suppression of the Islamic government, 30 years of group execution, mid-ages tortures, rape in prisons, life under the line of poverty, living under the old and retarded Islamic rules. Today they are on the streets in millions and can’t be out there to protest against the result of the election only! You can’t expect people to live in the hell of Islamic government and yet be on the side of one of the parties of the same government and want the Islamic regime to tell them what to wear, eat, who to sleep with and what color cloth to wear.

The main chant of people in the recent protests is “down with the dictator”. People objecting to the dictator regime; a regime which has hold them under the line of poverty and plunders the public property, doesn’t count women as a human, prisons the youths due to happy color of their cloths and their personal relationships, rapes them and secretly kills them in the prisons. The people in Iran are objecting to the dictator regime that doesn’t give the workers their basic rights and causes their families to fall a part, expansion of poverty, obscene and drug addiction, while the authorities are owners of unimaginable wealth. The people of Iran have announced numbers of times “we don’t want an Islamic government” this is the chanting of people in the streets of Iran.

No one can believe that people came to the streets knowingly that there is a danger to their life for the presidency of Moosavi, while thy know Moosavi was the first prime minister of the IRI. Moosavi was the person responsible, during the darkest ages of the regime, while in the 60’s thousands of political prisoners were executed.

By a look to the crimes committed by the Islamic regime during the past 30 years, suppression of objectors, suppression of youth for happiness, forcing poverty upon millions of people while the high authorities and billionaire Aiatolla’s robbing public properties; and on the other side million of people protesting by chanting “down with the dictator” and “we don’t want an Islamic government”, if anyone claims that the people of Iran still wants one of the parties of these inhuman government, while they have been part of if not the high authority; first of all has denied all the crimes committed by the Islamic regime and second of all, has insulted the people of Iran, and more importantly is against the fight of the this people for having a better human like life, free, happy and save and far a way from inhuman laws of Islam.

The people of Iran, from the beginning of this regime have not accepted this government and with any opportunity have attempted to bring down the Islamic regime, which rose from history’s graveyard with inhuman laws. Today is the day to bring down the Islamic regime and a celebration day for the people of Iran. According to news, people have more self confidence. They feel the power and unity and will not stop protesting until the death of the Islamic regime.
