Although unbelievable bravery is the essential ingredient, in facing barbarians who have no compunction to maim and murder, relatively speaking, there is security, some security in numbers, which makes being brave a tad bit easier.

However, the bravest are those, who in the seeming normalcy, publically stand up against tyranny.

Couple of days prior to the start of the nationwide peaceful protests by the Iranian people against the unreformable, expansionist and warmongering Islamist fascist rule, this women got up on a platform in a busily Tehran intersection waiving her mandatory hijab, the icon of ruling Islamist fascists’ misogynistic gender apartheid on a stick.

Iran is blessed with many brave women and men; they will eventually emancipate Iran, shame on those in freedom who do not support these braves.

Airtight sanctions, a la against the despicable South Africa apartheid, works. U.S. lawmakers get to it.

ps. to my mind, this till now unidentified woman will go down in history as Iran's Rosa Parks. 

Above picture; another brave Iranian woman.
