1-I call on Italian media to become the voice of
#SamiraZargari, the ski coach of the national team of Iran. She was prevented from going to Italy because her husband didn’t give her permission. Image
2-The Islamic Republic of Iran’s anti-women laws give husbands the right to prevent their wives from being able to leave the county. We need the help of the international community to fight against the gender apartheid in Iran
3-It is the duty of the international community and the Italian media to be the voice of Samira and many other women who are the victims of such anti-women laws. Solidarity transcended boundaries.
4-The Islamic Republic of Iran has systematically violated women’s rights. Many other female athletes traveling abroad for tournaments are forced to pay huge bails as collateral in order to prevent them from being refugees abroad
5-In Iran, female athletes are subjected to forced virginity tests in addition to being forced to wear hijab.The international community has been silent. But the moment a woman is prevented from leaving Iran, it affects the international community as well.They mustn’t stay silent

1-I urgently call on @ukhomeoffice, @pritipatel to investigate @MohajeraniSayed, a former official of the Islamic Republic who not only supports the fatwa against Salman Rushdie, but has also hailed an assassin as “a hero” attempting to kill an Iranian dissident in France Image
2-When in 1989, Khomeini issued a fatwa to have @SalmanRushdie murdered, @MohajeraniSayed issued his own call in support ImageImage
3-Recently, the notorious assassin Anis al-Naqqash, who attempted to kill Shahpour Bakhtiyar, the last prime minister under Shah, in France, died. Naqqash was released in an exchange for French hostages and had proudly admitted his role in the murder on Iranian state TV.

خطاب به سمیرا زرگری:
چقدر این خواسته‌ی شما از حکومت شرم‌آور است.
مگر چه فرقی بین شما و زنان عادی سرزمین‌مان وجود دارد که شما نیز همانند ابتکار و مولاوردی خود را تافته‌ی جدا بافته می‌دانید و مثل آنها فقط خواستار تغییر قانون ممنوع‌الخروحی مربوط به هم‌صنف‌های خودت میشوی؟ Image
۲-
خانم سمیرا زرگری! وقتی شما ممنوع الخروج شدی، زنان معمولی برایت جنگیدند، حالا چگونه میتوانی فقط برای حق خودت بجنگی و به قانون‌گذار واپسگرای کشور بگویی حداقل قانون مربوط به ممنوع‌الخروجی ورزشکاران را اصلاح کن؟
استثنا قائل شدن برای شما یعنی تحمیل تبعیضی دیگر بر زنان عادی ایران!
۳-خانم زرگری! گوش کردن مسؤلان به خواسته تو یعنی‌ تو به عنوان ویترین جمهوری اسلامی سفر خواهی کرد و هر چقدر زنان ایرانی بگویند ما اجازه سفر بی‌اذن شوهر نداریم، تصویر تو را بر سکوهای جهان بر فرق سر خواهرانت می‌کوبند و آزادی صدقه‌ای تو باعث نادیده انگاشتن اسارت میلیون‌ها زن خواهد شد

1-42 years ago today, this cleric called Khomeini landed in Iran and the revolution he championed brought a spiral of death and destruction. It quickly turned into a revolution against women
.
2-Some intellectuals in the West romanticize the Islamic Revolution and allege that it empowered conservative and rural women by enabling them to go to universities thanks to their hijab. This is a very simplistic way of thinking that removes the agency of women.
3-As you can see, my family used to wear loose-fitting hijab before the revolution. After the revolution, they turned into this. In my village, veiled & unveiled women used to walk hand-in-hand. But the Islamic Republic provoked veiled women against unveiled women.

How come Twitter blocks my posts exposing Islamic Republic savagery but just yesterday when I got death threats by more than 100 accounts, Twitter did nothing.
After #RuhollahZam was murdered by IRI these accounts issued death threats against me.

Exclusive video of #RuhollahZam playing with his daughter in a tiny room in a Parisian migrant hostel, sent to me by a documentary maker. Zam wasn't just a statistic

Europe must recall their ambassadors from Iran. Silence means more terrorism, assassinations & abductions
1-Calling EUROPE: Today, the Islamic Republic executed Iranian journalist, #RuhollahZam, who was kidnapped by the Revolutionary Guards from Iraq. The clerical regime kills Iranian dissidents as it takes Western hostages to use as pawns.
2-Kidnapping, arresting, and even executing dual nationals has been the part of the toolkit of the Islamic Republic. Today, more than 20 dual nationals are behind bars. Ahmad-Reza Djalili, Swedish-Iranian doctor, faces death on trumped up charges

1-Do you know that since it came to power, Islamic Republic in Iran has been assassinating its critics abroad? Worse, so-called reformists have also supported fatwas to kill. While Khomeini gave a fatwa for Salman Roshdi’s head, “reformist” Mohajerani supported it.
2-Assassination of dissidents abroad was very gruesome. In 1980, the Islamic Republic assassinated Iran's pre-revolutionary spokesman for Iranian Embassy in DC, Ali Akbar Tabatabai.

In 1989, they assassinated Qassemlou, a left-wing Kurdish dissident living in Austria.
3-Abdorrahman Boroumand was from the Council of the National Front of Iran. After arriving in Paris in 1979, he openly declared his opposition to the Islamic Republic.

He was brutally killed in his apartment by a Palestinian commando hired by the Islamic Republic.
