Tribute to KIAN PIRFALA, 9 years old and victim of the Islamic Republic's savagery 10 years ago. Update December 23, 2023

Editorial by G. d'A.: Dear reader, as a webmaster also I constantly have to guard the read-ability of the 'Cryfreedom'-outlet and sometimes decisions need to be made to have it be for your convenience and moreso in total support of the women-led revolt in Iran which inevitably will be a grand Victory. Still, choices must be made always and so I've decided to, for now, embed all the actual news about the 'NO-hijab; 'Biological terror attscks against schoolgirls'; 'Iranian journalists under siege'; 'Blinding as a weapon' and 'The hanging spree' as part of the 'Actual news' updates of the Iran 'Woman, Life, Freedom' section. But, if need be and urgent attention and action is needed concerning the above mentioned topics it will get an extra emphasized place as part of the actual news page-layout. Thank you for being a reader and for your support of the 'Woman, Life, Freedom' revolution.

Dear reader, from here on the 'Woman, Life, Freedom' pages menu will look a bit different and this to avoid too many pop-ups ,meaning the underlined period  in yellow tells you in what period you are and click on another underlinded period to go there. However, when needed a certain topic will be in yellow meaning it's a link to go that topic and will open in a new window. If you dissagree about any change feel more than free to let me know what you think at info@cryfreedom.net
This does not count for the  above topics which, when clicked on, will still appear in a pop-up window and for now the 'old' lay-out 'till I worked that all out. Thank you. Gino d'Artali

Women and Youth Lead the Charge for Change
NCRI - Womens committee - 11 August 2024 - in Articles, Women's News
<<Vanguards of Freedom: How Iranian Women and Youth Lead the Charge for Change
Women and Youth as Catalysts for Change
In every country, young people are pivotal assets and driving forces for transformation. This is particularly evident in nations oppressed by dictatorships, where youth have historically played a prominent role in advancing freedom struggles. Iran is a prime example of this phenomenon, where Iranian women and youth have consistently been at the forefront of revolutions and freedom movements. This article, marking the International Day of Youths, delves into the crucial role of women and youth in contemporary Iranian history.
The 1979 Revolution: A Youth-Led Uprising
The 1979 Revolution, which culminated in the overthrow of the Shah's dictatorial regime, was initiated by freedom-loving youth and met with overwhelming support from young people and women across Iran. Their activism and fervor were instrumental in challenging the existing order and triumph of the revolution.
Resistance Against Clerical Dictatorship
Following the triumph of the anti-monarchical revolution and the ascent of the clerical dictatorship, it was these very young people who stood resolutely against the new regime's encroachment on freedoms. Young men and women fought to protect the freedoms achieved during the revolution. Despite being brutally suppressed, severely beaten, arrested, and imprisoned by the regime, they did not cease their efforts for a moment to safeguard the political freedoms achieved by the anti-monarchical revolution.

Teenage Girls and Young Women: Defenders of Equality
Teenage girls and young women, acutely aware of the threats to their freedoms and equality, played a significant role in resisting religious oppression and tyranny. Their courage and activism in confronting the regime's repressive measures played a central role in shaping a generation of young women who, after 45 years, are now the driving force behind uprisings.
The Grim Legacy of the 1980s
Most of the victims of the mass executions in the 1980s in Iran were college and high school students. This generation demonstrated the courage to say "Death to the dictator" directly to the face of the inhumane Khomeini. They faced the firing squads standing on their feet, refusing to let the shame of surrendering to a "religious dictatorship" be recorded in history.
The release of images of 12 teenage girls executed without being identified revealed the grim nature of the regime’s repression. This period marked a dark chapter in Iranian history, with the regime initiating its brutal campaign by targeting young girls and women. However, the message of their blood-drenched resistance transcended Iran's borders, compelling the world to recognize and honor the splendor and bravery of Iranian women and youth. Since 1981, the message of support for their resistance has been a recurring theme in the statements of international organizations and parliaments across all five continents.

The Enduring Spirit of Iranian Women and Youth
Despite the regime’s widespread efforts to demonize the Iranian Resistance and the People's Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI/MEK), Iranian women and youth have remained resolute in joining the Resistance and shaping the uprisings. From the student protests of July 9, 1999, to the 2009 upheaval, and the nationwide uprisings of 2017, 2018, 2019, and 2022, Iran's freedom-loving women and youth have consistently been the vanguard of resistance. Their demand is unequivocal: the overthrow of the mullahs' religious tyranny.
The Rise of Resistance Units
In recent years, the emergence of Resistance Units across Iran, supporting the People's Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI/MEK), has been notable. Various generations of Iranian women and youth, having experienced multiple uprisings, now see these units as their path to overthrowing the clerical dictatorship and liberating Iran. Their efforts have intensified and broadened significantly in recent months.
The Global Presence of Freedom-loving Women and Youth
On the other hand, the presence of Iranian youth, who represent and convey the voice of the millions of young Iranians under the rule of the clerics, can be seen in the ranks of the Iranian Resistance abroad. By participating in international human rights forums and various gatherings, these young people serve as ambassadors of freedom. They echo the demands of Iranian youth for democracy and freedom and oppose religious tyranny and any form of dictatorship with the slogan "Neither the Shah nor the mullahs." They reflect the voices of the silenced youth in Iran, who are censored by the ruling clerics.
A significant demonstration in Berlin on June 29, commemorating the anniversary of the Iranian people’s just resistance, featured a large presence of freedom-loving women and youth. These individuals, whether they endured the hardships of migration from a young age with their families or were born abroad, have never forgotten their love for their homeland and the responsibility they feel towards the youth of Iran. They dedicate their time, whether hours or days, to the cause of resistance, striving to ensure that their voices echo the cries of their peers in the cities and streets of Iran.
This ongoing commitment and activism underscore the pivotal role of Iranian women and youth in driving the movement for change and challenging the regime's tyranny.>>
