US: Dramatic video shows a Texas police officer brutally beating a man who refused to turn over his phone to police. The victim was not suspected of a crime and was voluntarily cooperating with police.

I can't imagine the level of publicity this story would receive if it was filmed in #Iran and it was the #IRI's notorious #IRGC who did that!

Another victim of the regime brutal crack down on protesters in Iran!

There are more reports of casualties by IRGC forces using live amo toward demonstrators that the regime claims using AK47 and even 50 caliber machine guns against it's targets.

Police in Iran have launched an investigation after a video showed riot police repeatedly kicking and then shooting a man

As the old Persian proverb says:

• The soup was so salty that even the king tasted it.

Regime is desperate to show they are acting with civility toward protesters. And TBF compared to their actions during the 1980s and then 2009 riots, they have not used their worse paramilitary groups yet.

Mainly because they know that the moment they use IRGC troops with military weapons, the situation will get out of hands.

They have only acted extremely violent in Baluchistan and Kurdistan, mainly because of the historical conflict in those 2 regions as well as the attacks by separatist groups in those regions targeting IRGC and border patrols.

There are many voices inside the regime calling for abolishing the moral police. They are still in minority but some big names among the clerics have put their voice behind the idea.

One comment was specially important.

The Islamic term of "Amr be maEruf VA nahy az moknksr" (demand righfulness and oppose immoral act), has a limit, if a person doesn't want to be corrected, it is not our job to save their sole, the almighty god will punish them on judgment day.

This means that the whole function of moral police should be changed into an advisory role rather than enforcing or punishing those who do not complying with the Hijab rules.

Unfortunately, these ideas are some 40 years too late and the current situation can't be changed slowly and gradually. The people demanding the resignation of Khamenei and change of theocracy, so there will be nothing in between the 2 lines other than a major conflict, or total collapse of the regime (highly unlikely).

Iranian police launch probe after video shows man beaten, shot

Central command says offenders will face legal consequences according to the rules.

#Iran: 17-yr-old #SadafMovahedi died from internal bleeding after being beaten with a baton by security forces on her way back from school. Her family is being threatened to stay silent.

What kind of monster beats an innocent young girl in the head? This is a disgusting ISIS level inhumanity.

These actions will blow back on their face, Iran is about to explode in massive outbreak of violence.

It is just horrifying to watch from distance.

Two more victims of brutal crackdown of protesters in Iran.

#Iran #MahsaAmini #IranProtrsts #PoliceBrutality #Politics
This time, two Afghan teenagers. Who were shot and beaten by IRI security forces.

• Mohammad Reza Sarvari , 14yo , shot dead
• Setareh Tagic, 16yo, beaten to death

It breaks my heart and burns me inside to see these beautiful kids fall victim of this brutal and inhumane regime.

PS. Afghans don't have the right to become Iranian citizens, despitr the fact that these kids were born and raised in Iran, they never have a chance to gain citizenship in the only country they know. Even public don't see them as Iranians, no matter how long they have lived in the country. But in their death, they put the flag of Iran over the announcement and treat them like their own.

Iran! Abolfazl Adinehzadeh, a 16-year-old kid, was shot by IRI security forces in front of Ferdowsi University of Mashhad on October 8, 2022.

He was transferred to a hospital but died of his injuries a few hours later.

Another miss-information piece by a US based Iranian expat who is supposedly against sanctions and for US signing the JCPOA, but sadly, so terribly wrong in so many of his analysis and posts about Iran both domestically and internationally!

The amount of publicity this con-artist is getting is truly upsetting. Nothing in his tweet is true, not according to any Iranian sources I have followed since the start of the uprising. But it doesn't stop 18k people to like it or 8.4k people resharing it.

These people are being used by the Iranian regime as proof of the foreign campaign directed at regime change to justify their bloody crackdown on the uprising followed the death of #MahsaAmini almost 3 weeks ago.

Another precious life taken by the Islamic Republic. 16-year-old #SarinaEsmaeilzadeh was beaten to death when IRI "police" hit her multiple times in the head head!

The United Nations has decried the death in custody of Mahsa Amini after she was arrested by Iran's "morality police" and the violent crackdown on the protests over her death.

5he situation is is going from bad to worse.

Reisi who pushed for his Taliban style breakdown on "immoral" behavior after his election, let loose the mad dogs of moral patrol or sharia police all over the country.

His goal was to break the spirit of women who were using the little freedom they had received under previous "moderate" president to show that IRI is based on 7th century mindset in regards to women's rights.

But unlike their progress in the 80s and 90s, women are no longer willing to give in and accept to be treated like subjects and fighting back.

This is the spirit of Iranian women who shown they are much stronger and fearless than 5he.men and are now leasing the massive protests across the country.

I'm not sure what the outcome wi be, but in the current situation in the country, it just moving toward a collapse of the regime, at least in some areas of yhe country.

The death of the young woman after she was caught by the Sharia police has sparked a massive backlash across the country, specially in the Kurdish regions of the country.

Women shave their head and share the video of it on Telegram or TikTok and many men have done the same thing in solidarity with women who shave their heads.

There are many videos of women burning their head scarf and walking among demonstrators without a head cover.

The disastrous economical situation in the country as well as horrible handling of the COVID in the country has pushed people to a point that one spark was enough to push them over the edge.
