The important reason for the Iranian uprising in September 2022 Source: https://blogs.timesofisrael.com/why-iranian-people-uprising-2022/ Victoria Azad
Every time the people of Iran have risen up and raised their voices against the
government and injustice, they have clearly defined the direction of their
movement with their slogans.
In 1999 the movement, which mainly included students, protested against the lack
of freedom and the regime’s missile attack on students on their university
premises.
In 2009 there were calls again. This time people rose up after scandals in the
election results. They came out on the streets to claim their usurped votes.
In December 2016, they rose again against Rohani’s government, high prices of
food, housing and unemployment. They were severely crushed. The protest stopped
but it was started again in November 2018. Then it started with big
anti-government protests against 300% increases in petrol price, and they
chanted slogans against fundamentalists and reformists in that government
warning them that their time is over. They pointed out that the two phalanxes in
the regime are the same and can no longer deceive the people. By that time, the
protestors had passed the reformist discourse and the discourse of Revolt took
hold and became their agenda. In less than three years, the field fighters
organized themselves into secret units, waiting for a golden opportunity to
surprise the regime.
This right occasion for rebellion was 15 September 2022, when
demonstrations began against the murder of #Mehsa_Amini. Field activists came to
the field with the woman, life, and freedom as a symbol of modernity. Today they
consider their identity and national pride have been completely lost and
therefore must be regained. A full-fledged national movement has now emerged in
Iran. This time, the discourse on Regime Chang in Iran and the end of the
Islamic regime has the highest priority. In addition to the nationwide uprising
of the Iranian people against the mullahs and the mullahs’ government, a special
message is to “raise the status of women from a subordinate role to a superior
one”. Objection to sharia law and state slavery system is extremely large. The
large and courageous presence of women in this rebellion alongside solidarity
and modern men against the apartheid of the Islamic government is very
prominent. This widespread uprising is increasing in strength and number of
participants and will lead to a major revolution for democracy and the removal
of religious and Shiite restrictions from the government on society. A profound
revolution with a very modern, ambitious and nationalist orientation targeting
the heart of the Islamic regime in Iran. A revolution that is definitely one of
the most prominent events in human history. A phenomenon that will shake the
Islamic world. The slogan “woman, life, freedom” (Jen, Xian, Azadi) started in
Kurdistan and spread throughout Iran. This is not just a slogan. This is the
result of Iranian society’s cultural renaissance in the transition from
tradition to modernity and the intersection of Sharia law. People struggling
with the economic crisis and rampant inflation, but their motto is women, life,
freedom. They shout: We do not want an Islamic Republic in Iran. At the same
time, this is a serious warning to those political groups and international
forces who do not want our Iran united : Iranians are not separated, but they
gather forces for freedom and the establishment of a democratic and secularized
government in the country. Right now, the solidarity of the Iranian people from
west to east, from north to south has shaken the body of the brutal Islamic
regime. They can no longer continue this situation. They have no legitimacy.
The discourse of the Iranian people this time is subversion of the regime and
recapture Iran. It is a discourse of patriotism. And it has been heard among
people in Europe and the United States and all over the world. This time we see
that these heroic people are determined to overthrow the rule of the mullahs and
will overthrow it!
Now we expect all nations and governments in the world, including Europe,
America, Asia, Africa to support the people of Iran. The Islamic regime
oppresses the people in a terrible way. Everyone should be their voice.
