- 1:00By her brother my mood and murdered Connie.
- 1:03It was not immediately clear? When the message was recorded
- 1:06and my mood said she was arrested and taken to prison on
- 1:11Wednesday? See like I said these people
- 1:14they put up these messages, she's put up this post knowing
- 1:17full. Well the ramifications that
- 1:19would come swiftly imprisonment short time later and yet we in
- 1:26the west you know will sell you were going to wear a pretty
- 1:28little colorful out. Armband.
- 1:30And isn't that beautiful and brave of us when in actual fact,
- 1:35this is actual courage. What this lady here is doing so
- 1:40to continue on to says all humanity is observing that.
- 1:44Iranian people with empty hands with exemplary courage and
- 1:48bravery of fighting with the evil forces murdered murdered.
- 1:52Connie said at this point in time, the people of Iran are
- 1:56carrying the burden of this. Heavy human response.
- 2:00Ability Alone by paying with their lives.
- 2:03So more attorney also criticized apparent in action other than
- 2:08short and ineffective statements by the United Nations or as a
- 2:13lot of people like to call them the United nothing's as who
- 2:17countries suffers under obvious cruel oppression and as in 2022
- 2:23being been the Showcase of the absolute pathetic nature.
- 2:29Of the United Nations. Some murdered Connie, also
- 2:33blasted the ridiculous and laughable sanctions that have
- 2:37been levied against Iranian officials.
- 2:40So she goes on to say that for the first time in human history,
- 2:44women are dictating their hidden power over this patriarchal
- 2:49patriarchal society and showing with all the courage that the
- 2:53place of real power is in the thought and not in the muscle.
- 2:57She said, so more akane, go. Called on people worldwide to
- 3:01tell their governments to stop supporting this murderous and
- 3:05child killing regime. Which she said is not loyal to,
- 3:10any of the religious principles of Islam.
- 3:13The brave Iranians are actually at war with all the government's
- 3:18that support these oppressive rulers.
- 3:20She said, Samara Connie and her brother are the children of
- 3:23kaminis sister battery has seen any company and her husband, Ali
- 3:29Tehran She was previously arrested in January after.
- 3:33She praised the Widow of Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi who was
- 3:38ousted by this 1979 Islamic revolution.
- 3:43So volka took the United Nations High, Commissioner for the High
- 3:49Commissioner for human rights said in Geneva on Thursday that
- 3:53the human rights situation is deteriorating in Iran.
- 3:57So it pains me to see what is happening in the country.
- 3:59Tree, said, the images of children killed of women beaten
- 4:03in the streets of people sentenced to death.
- 4:06Turkish set goes on to say that we have seen waves of protests
- 4:10over the past years, calling for justice, equality dignity, and
- 4:15respect the human rights. They have been met with violence
- 4:18and repression. The unnecessary and
- 4:20disproportionate use of force must come to an end yet again,
- 4:25just more words more hot air. Nothing actually, Being done,
- 4:30that needs to be done. So, Turk is said that 14,000
- 4:34people including children have been arrested in Iran since
- 4:38protests began, which was sparked by the death of Masa
- 4:42Army knee in September. A meanie who is 22 died after
- 4:47she was, detained by police for not wearing her hijab properly.
- 4:52So at least 21 arrested during the protest face the death
- 4:56penalty and at least six have already been sentenced to the
- 4:59death for charges of enmity against God and Corruption on
- 5:05Earth, Listen to. I just leave this article.
- 5:08What this lady here is doing what this article really
- 5:11emphasizes, is The Bravery. The courage that is being shown
- 5:15by so many people in Iran by continuing to stand up and speak
- 5:20against these atrocities and speak out.
- 5:23Even though, they know for sure that they will be arrested and
- 5:27quite possibly killed Andy. If they not killed, they will be
- 5:31beaten while they're in jail. Now, if you want to compare
- 5:35this, to some of the acts of so-called bravery that we that
- 5:39we call out here in Australia here in Australia, just this
- 5:43morning, one of the main news, stories, that was on our
- 5:48one-hour television. This morning on the, on, the ABC
- 5:51was about The Bravery shown by a, by a basketball player here
- 5:57in Australia, because he was the first First, the first top-tier
- 6:02Sportsman to ever come out as being lgbtq that here in
- 6:09Australia is considered as being brave.
- 6:12Now, I'm, you know, I'm not going to downplay how nervous or
- 6:16how scared he might have been, but that is not bravery.
- 6:20Give me a break. Bravery is what these people in
- 6:23Iran are doing when they stand up against tyranny.
- 6:26It is not brave, just because you want to come.
- 6:29And advertise your sexuality, and feel the need to Define
- 6:34Yourself by who you have sex with and then tell everyone that
- 6:39you're being brave. Just because you were scared to
- 6:42tell your teammates that is not bravery.
- 6:47What this woman in Iran is doing, that is brave.
- 6:51That is true leadership standing up against the face of actual
- 6:57tyranny. Regardless Is of the threats of
- 7:00death and harmed, your life still standing up.
- 7:04And speaking against tyranny, that is bravery.
- 7:07That is leadership. That is my opinion.
- 7:10Please let me know what you think.
- 7:14Am I being too harsh? On all these people are stand up
- 7:16and say hey am I brave because I come out as lgbtq rainbow or we
- 7:22just misusing the English language of these days where we
- 7:26want to describe every little thought in our head, as being
- 7:30brave, and Western Society has gotten soft.
- 7:34That's my opinion. Thank you for listening to the
- 7:37slippery slope.
