No cares if you wear the hijab. No one cares if you wear purple hair, for that matter. But in Iran and elsewhere in the Islamic world, women are forced to wear the hijab, beaten and/or arrested if they don’t. The punishment these courageous women in Iran are now facing is a stunning indictment of the hypocrisy of the evil left in the West, with its World Hijab Day and promotion of the hijab as a “choice.” The real “feminists” are fighting for a fraction, a sliver of the freedoms their Western “sisters” enjoy.
Remember: this is the country the Democrats are fighting for, opposing President Trump’s efforts to stop them from nuclear arming.
“Women protesting against wearing the hijab in Iran will be charged with inciting PROSTITUTION and jailed for up to ten years as regime cracks down on growing dissent,” by Sara Malm, Mailonline, February 27, 2018:

Iranian women protesting the compulsory headscarf by taking off their hijab in public could be facing up to a decade in jail for ‘inciting prostitution’, police has warned.
Authorities in Iran are desperately trying to stem the growing protests across the country against the dress code enforced on women since the Islamic revolution of 1979.
More than 35 women have been arrested in the capital Tehran alone in the past two months, with several reportedly subjected to torture while in custody.
At least two of the arrested protesters, Narges Hosseini and Shaparak Shajarizadeh, are being charged with ‘inciting corruption and prostitution’, Amnesty International reports.
Ms Shajarizadeh was arrested last Wednesday and has reportedly been subjected to beatings in prison.
Activists claim she was also ‘injected with an unknown substance by the prison authorities’ upon her arrest.
Ms Hosseini was arrested just over a month ago and has since been in custody in unknown conditions.
If they are found guilty of inciting corruption and prostitution, they could face up to ten years in prison….
‘Rather than threatening women with jail terms for claiming their human rights, the authorities should immediately abolish the discriminatory, abusive and degrading laws and practices of compulsory veiling.’
The recent wave of defiance started with Vida Movahed, a 31-year-old mother-of-one whose protest and subsequent arrest on December 27 became headline news all over the world.
A video showing her calmly waving her white hijab tied to a stick above the crowds in the Iranian capital, went viral on social media.
Ms Movahed, who became known as The Girl In Enghelab Street, was released over the weekend, after spending a month in custody with her 20-month-daughter….

Iran agents killed more than 20 protesters while they were in custody. Thousands remain in prisons. 1988 Iran executed upwards of 30,000 political prisoners. A 10 year prison sentence in Iran is a death sentence.

Take off the Hijab, a woman changes from ‘BEST’ to ‘worst of creature’ (prostitute) https://quran.com/98/6-7
‘And abide in your houses and do not display yourselves [without a Hijab] as [was] the display of the FORMER times of ignorance (UNbelieve). …’ https://quran.com/33/33

Agree. As long as Left/Liberal pro-jihadis loons are voted to power they will appoint pro-jihadis in admin and judiciary and support more islam and burka as “human rights” .
Here’s some great news from fast turning Jihadi hellhole Australia . Judge bans Muslima from court for wearing the Burkha and Left/Liberal pro-jihadis howl in protest http://bit.ly/2nRdtgd

I’ve read that an Iranian woman condemned to die was raped by Iranian police officers to insure she’s not a virgin (because virgins get a free ride to Jannah).

In at least some Cases *DRUGGED* & RAPED in the Islamic Republic of IRAN’s PRISONS this is Common to BEAT Them & still DRUGGING & RAPING Them & TORTURED Before being even FOUND GUILTY then sent HOME & BEATEN Some more & OFTEN HONOUR KILLED so if Found Guilty they are then BEATEN RAPED some more in PRISONS & KILLED & eventually BEING KILLED Starts to Look Pretty Good. And all it Takes is a PROTEST where you TAKE OFF YOUR HIJAB & WAVE IT AROUND but suddenly the NEW FEMINIST go Deadly Silent until they return & DEMAND ‘SHAR’IAH IS PEACEFUL’, ‘SHAR’IAH IS HUMAN RIGHT’ even though that means DEATH & ENSLAVED To Them & MASS GENOCIDE To ALL OTHER KAFFIRS, so they go on REPEATING the SAME LIES & SAME DELUSIONS Hoping you’ll Buy their Bullshite (Who said LIES DON’T KILL YOU these Will)

What are you trying to say? A woman can be moral and a good mother, devoted to her family without wearing a hijab. Wearing a hijab has nothing to do with having a moral compass.

Not to be a defender of the barbarism that is the Muslim faith, but what “Semur” is trying to say it’s about modesty as a virtue. It does indeed portend the moral boundaries and character of the dresser. Not that it’s fool proof these days. But there is wisdom in keeping a bit about ones self as a discoverable mystery for both men and women. How a woman dresses is spoken of in the Christian scriptures as well. 1 Timothy 2:9.

The leftist women in the USA must be celebrating this. They had a campaign a month or two ago telling the world how real feminists wear hijab. These Iranian women certainly are not up to the freedom of the leftist females in the USA.

I would repost this story on my own Facebook page. However, with no links to corroborating Middle Eastern news sources, it makes the piece easily disputable by naysayers.

Sounds like you Wouldn’t Believe IT ANYWAY but a simple GOOGLE SEARCH will find you all the Sources Necessary as I’ve already READ 4 English versions but you want ARABIC VERSIONS from a Country that CENSORS EVERYTHING or you Won’t Believe it but I wonder (1) Do You even UNDERSTAND/READ ARABIC/HEBREW? & (2) Would you even BELIEVE it Anyway? I’d say *NO you wouldn’t so Whats the Point?* we got better things to do than Try to FORCE YOU TO BELIEVE THE TRUTH WHEN CLEARLY YOU WON’T, your MIND IS CLOSED TO THE TRUTH & a Ballpane Hammer wouldn’t get it In

“CLEARLY YOU WON’T, your MIND IS CLOSED TO THE TRUTH”
Pity the people who come to conclusions about others whom they clearly know nothing about. It is you here who has made assumptions about the writer (me). I made no assumptions about the writer of this article. You are the one with the closed mind not I. Next time you feel like accusing someone of being closed minded on disqus, (or anything for that matter), how about looking at their history and see who they are. Even if it’s hidden to borrow your words, “a simple GOOGLE SEARCH” can find their comments.
As for my comment on this article, I stand by it. When one makes extraordinary claims they should provide evidence to back it up. So much of what the media reports these days is based on “anonymous” sources. It is the reporter that has the balls to back up what they say that I have the greatest respect for. In like manner as the accuser that brings another to court, in my mind the onus is on them to provide the evidence, not the reader’s. No matter how believable the story is (and I do lean towards it being true by the way), in this case the writer is accusing a nation of a barbaric act and bringing that nation before the court of public opinion. Where’s the evidence! Because sure as I go on Aljazeer and repeat this story someone is going to want me to prove it.

Where are the “feminists”?
Where are the “SJW”?
They seem to only care about number 1. Themselves alone.

Ten years in prison will come with repeated daily rape and other forms of gross abuses.
