Civilians in Iran face bombings, sanctions, and repression, yet are questioned about their failure to rise against the regime. Historical evidence shows that replacing dictators does not dismantle inequality or lead to democracy. After a recent strike on military leaders, minority rights groups report increasing arrests and executions. Collective protest under 'Jin, Jiyan, Azadi' emerged in 2022, inspiring unity among various Iranian ethnic groups, but met with intensified state violence. The regime uses minority populations as tools for maintaining power rather than as human lives deserving protection.
The missiles have stopped, for now. But peace has not followed. In Iran, the regime's war against its own people never pauses. It only shifts tactics.
Every time the regime is threatened, from abroad or within, it cracks down harder. These are not side effects. They are a strategy.
In 2022, Kurds, Persians, Baluchis, Azeris, Arabs, rich and poor, devout and secular, moved together under one cry: Jin, Jiyan, Azadi.
The regime treats minorities, women, and the poor not just as collateral but as camouflage. Their bodies are offered up to preserve power and save face.
