    Every #Arab on this platform should be supporting the #Iranian uprising. Their struggle is ours as well. Their freedom is our freedom.

    Why are children of #Iranian regime officials still allowed to live in the #US & #EU? Isn’t it time to treat them like children of #Russian officials & oligarchs & kick them out? #IranProtests2022

    When your people cannot cheer for their national football team, you have a serious problem.
    Don’t let anyone tell you the Iranian people hate America. It’s just the regime. The people of Tehran's Eram region are happy about the loss of the Iranian team to the United States People are heard shouting "America, America.”

    We have a saying in Arabic that perfectly describes this: حرقة القلب or broken heart. Whenever I think of ME, it’s misery, & the potential that has been denied I also cry. This song speaks to all our broken hearts be it in #Iran, #Lebanon, #Syria or #Iraq. The culprit is the same
    It's hard to watch this viral video from the Iran solidarity protest in Berlin without getting emotional. 🥺 #MahsaAmini
