Restless Iranian Youth

 



Iran, in which the Islamic revolution took place thirty years ago, perhaps today's young generation is not satisfied with this revolution and they are preferring the western lifestyle of their own accord, which can be estimated from the current situation in Iran.

The protests, which began days ago, were sparked by violence against women, which has now become the biggest challenge to Iran's government since the 1979 Islamic Revolution. The case began on September 16 when 22-year-old Mahsa Amini, who was arrested by Iran's moral police (Patrol Irshad Force) for violating hijab laws, fell into a coma after being allegedly tortured and three days later She died in the hospital. Since that day, despite the actions of the security forces, the protest has not stopped stay According to the Human Rights Activists News Agency website, 298 people have been killed in these protests, while 14,000 have been arrested. Different l change is water. Over the past few weeks, a number of Iranian women have regularly flouted head covering laws and have been seen waving their scarves in the air on car roofs. There are many such examples on social media as Well She can be seen wearing the hijab in public, including many celebrities, such as actress Fatima Mutamad Arya. There are indeed few examples in the history of the Islamic Republic of Iran of such blatant violation of the law in public. In some social media posts, young Iranian women can be seen walking past security forces wearing hijabs, although officials say that no changes have been made to these laws. Ali Khan Mohammadi, a spokesman for Iran's moral police, told a news website on October 30 that 'the Hijab Stripping is still a violation of the law. However, despite this announcement, Iranian women could not be stopped from openly violating it. A 69-year-old Iranian woman, who spoke on condition of anonymity,  since the protests began, she has been leaving the house without wearing a hijab. "One day I was walking down the street," she said. That a car honked from behind. I turned around and there was a young lady in the car without hijab. He blew me a symbolic kiss in victory. I did the same. Within 40 days, the country has changed as much as it could not change in 40 years. The recent protests in Iran are also different because the war is being fought on walls. People are writing messages on walls which are posted on social media. Civil administrations paint over them, but their efforts seem to be failing. Most of them target Iran's supreme leader, Ayatollah Khamenei, in language never seen before, and Iran. The government is attacked. However, This  real fight of the war is taking place in the streets, where protesters are defying laws that prohibit protest. These protestors remove government billboards or make pictures or write something on them. Iranian writer Alex Shams said that 'people have set up temporary free zones where girls and women dance, people are oppressed. They raise slogans of abolition and discuss the protest movement and how to carry it forward. For Iranians, they say, these protests are a place to be.Where they can imagine a different kind of future. Students are the group that actively participates in these protests and according to the Human Rights Activists News Agency, 47 children have been killed so far. These dead youths have become a familiar symbol of instability in the country. Names like Nika Shakarami and Sarina Ismail zadeh are now seen as hashtags on social media and their pictures are plastered on walls. Such a large number of young people in anti-government protests in Iran First time out. On social media, videos can be seen of students, especially girls, shouting slogans against the government, tearing up pictures of Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei, or putting pictures of those killed in protests in school textbooks. Slogans can be seen chanting against a member of the force who had arrived at the school to address an event.  On October 29, Hossein Salami, head of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps, threatened the protesters that 'in the Streets Get out, today will be the last day of rioting. But on that day there were more than usual protests and reports of clashes with security forces. We have heard stories of many people who showed fearlessness despite the extraordinary crackdown. One of the women, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said she left her child with her mother to attend a protest. 'I was scared but I wanted a better future for my child. To do it for. "In Germany, Iranian singer Farawaz Favardini believes that "the present Protests have come to life because of Iranian society fed up with the situation. He says that everything has become very expensive, there is also a lot of cruelty. After what happened to Mahsa Amini, people have realized that even people with no connection to politics can be killed without a word. I think that's why many people are fighting for hope. One of the special things about these protests is that, unlike the anti-government movements of the past, different parts of Iranian society are participating this time. After the Iranian presidential election in 2009, Madd in the protests The class was at the forefront, while the poor were prominent in the oil price protests in 2019. The protests this time include groups from different ethnic groups in Iran, which is also expressed in slogans.
