Iranian Youth
It takes courage. Police forces there are not exactly known for being soft and having limits. Many people died and I won’t forget the footage of young men being beaten until they loose clinical consciousness and others beaten to death. Not to mention what probably is happening to those who are arrested.
The outcome is still somewhat unpredictable:
a) We don’t know what really happened during the elections;
b) I cannot understand from all the soundbytes if the majority of the iranian population would agree with new elections;
c) Considering the fraud existed (as the iranian authorities recognize) I still don’t know if the difference caused by that would be enough to change the victor of the elections. The iranians authoroties talk about 3.000.000 votes difference, not enough to give the victory to oposition. But then again, are these numbers accurate? Anyway, calling for new elections it’s a step any authority would only consider after proven fraud with major implications in the electoral outcome;
d) I also don’t know what role the international powers have in what is happening. I don’t know who funds the opposition party, I don’t know what makes a politician ask again and again this kind of self-sacrifice.
Anyhow, I fear for them in the years to come. I honour their bravery and their courage to stand up for their dreams regardless of what might happen to them physically. I hope nobody ever forgets them in Iran.
WARNING: the videos are live footage of an EXTREMELY graphic nature. Extreme violence is present. If you are under 18 years old you should not watch these videos.
