You know, we’re always asking ourselves, what was the very best result of the Islamic Revolution in Iran? There’s so much to choose from, but on Monday, Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei gave a shout out to all of the women in science that the Islamic Revolution has allowed to develop and thrive.
One of Islamic Revolution’s greatest honors is that under Islamic governance, there are many intellectual & educated women in our society; women’s names appearing on multiple works of science, history, literature, & politics represent a source of honor. 20/1/15#WomenInScience

Today, women are among our most eminent scientists, authors &cultural figures. This is the art of Islamic Revolution; before revolution no such thing existed! During Pahlavis, there were very few women who managed to make great achievements & today there are plenty of them.8/3/18

Maybe he felt he had to say something now that Saudi Arabia has gone and allowed women to drive cars.
Contrary to the Western thinking of women who think women are for sexual flourishing, Islam has a comprehensive plan to regulate the strata of women in particular.

Only thing you have to do is let them wear whatever they like, then Iran will be the most advanced Islamic society.

So why not give ALL women in Iran and the Islamic world equal rights as men ?

One of Islamic Revolution’s greatest failures is that under Islamic governance, there are many intellectual & educated women in your prisons; women’s names appearing in multiple documents on human rights violations, gender-based discrimination etc. represent a source of shame.

#FakeNews! It was #RezaShah(God bless his soul) who introduced legal rights of women including legal status, gender equality, education, their contribution in economy and politics and so on! His legacy remains glorious to this day. #40YearsofFailure #IslamicRegimeMustGo

Please that is just insulting to women everywhere. You are the enemy of Iranian women. You’re one of the disgusting human beings anywhere in this planet. If you believed in women you would let them be free
