Cenas do Irão profundo (II)

Corajosas mulheres iranianas

Imagens de uma mulher iraniana com o rosto ensanguentado depois de ter sido espancada pela polícia de Teerão. O seu crime foi tão só ter recusado o lenço que as mulheres daquele retrógado país muçulmano são obrigadas a usar sobre a sua cabeça desde a malograda revolução de 1979. Milhares de mulheres têm sido "notificadas" pela polícia no sentido de cumprirem o terrível código hislâmico de vestimenta feminina e centenas acabam mesmo por serem detidas por usarem os lenços de cabeça demasiado soltos ou os casacos excessivamente apertados.
As imagems abaixo falam por si. Para além da repressão que sobre o povo do Irão, e muito principalmente as mulheres, os rumores acerca da eventualidade de um ataque dos USA fazem aumentar os receios e o descontentamento estre a população subjugada aos ayatollas.

Masih has published these two pictures from the recent Police Brutality against “improper veiled” women in Iran.

The recent Police brutality against women, because of their “improper” veils, has caused disgust and anger in the Iranian blogosphere. Although some bloggers were initially worried that revealing the injured women’s face may put her in danger of prosecution, the very picture of a women with bloody face has been circulated in the Internet, both inside and outside Iran. Balatarin, the Iranian Digg, created a hot topic to cover the story. Right after the first picture was linked in Balatarin, it hit a record high in terms of number of votes, comments and clicks.

The anger is not a matter of political view. Simply, the mainstream blogosphere is up on their feet. These are some reactions inside Iran.
Oops! The game got bloody!

Am I weak or you are?

Chief of Police! I assure you these pictures will not find their way to newspapers. Masih also provides more pictures of the incident, shown in the above.
These women have the heart of a lion.
Yesterday, 7-Tir square [where the incident happened] smelled like blood.

Who is responsible, the one who oppresses or the one who accepts it.
We are the outcomes of dictatorship.
