5 Iranian women football players seeking asylum reminded many that #IslamicRepublic is not a normal government. Their refusal to sing Islamic Republic anthem led to an accusation of war-time treason on public tv which carries the death penalty #AFC #IranWar #IranRevolution2026

Every sports journalist and media should be covering this story. It’s a matter of life & death for Iranian women’s national team. The regime in Iran on national TV promised to make an example and punish them severely for refusing to sing the national anthem.

Some people questioned my earlier post. I said the real danger in Iran does not come from the sky. It comes from the regime’s gunmen on our streets and rooftops. This video from Kouhak, Tehran last night shows exactly that. People chanting javid shah (long live the king) from

From Inside Iran: After a few days, I finally managed to connect. Last night, I went shopping and saw 15–20 people marching with Khamenei banners, holding mourning ceremonies, and causing heavy traffic. Armed men were around them. Some cars honked to clear the way, and in front

As an Iranian living inside my country during war, I will say this plainly. The chance of me being killed by masked, armed men roaming the streets, or by gunmen standing on mosque rooftops behind machine guns, is far greater than the chance of dying in an airstrike. That is the

Hi @ImKarim17 obvious to me you have not spoken to an actual Iranian about the recent war! Find *ANY* Iranian and, talk to them for 2 minutes. Please be open to the possibility that they know about Iran and the war more than you.

Imagine if Iran bombed Washington & killed students in schools, what would you call it? Terrorism. The U.S. & Israel bombed Tehran and killed students in schools. Why do you call it a "pre-emptive strike"? Bombing a school is a war crime under international humanitarian law.
