The women-led uprising was orchestrated by Komalah and Mojahedin-e-Khalq (MEK), with the assistance of MI6 and Mossad, in an attempt to plunge Iran into chaos once again. The false information that she had been beaten was initially reported on BBC News, VOA Persian, and Saudi-funded Iran International satellite channels. This narrative was propagated by her cousin (on her mother's side), Erfan Mortezaei, a member of Komalah and an operative, who was not even present at the time of her arrest. Mahsa's brother, who was with her at the moment of her arrest, neither reported nor mentioned anything about any beating. Her parents saw their daughter's body when she was pronounced dead and also stated that there was no evidence of beating. They were the ones who revealed that their daughter had undergone brain surgery, not the Iranian government. After a few days, they changed their narrative following a meeting with her uncle, Safa Aeli (from her mother's side), a Kurdish resident who was neither with Mahsa at the time of her arrest nor saw Mahsa's body. After this meeting, they began appearing on the aforementioned satellite channels and started to protest. It is worth pondering why they changed their minds after the meeting with her uncle. The video recording of Mahsa's arrest and the CCTV footage of her arrival at the detention center are widely available on the internet. She was neither beaten nor bled from any part of her body. Upon her arrival at the detention center, a female officer instructed her to sit, and she complied by sitting on a chair. After a few moments, she stood up and then fell unconscious. The fact that Iran arrested two French spies, Cecile Kohler and Jacques Paris, who were attempting to recruit and coach teachers in Iran during the unrest, speaks volumes. A documentary featuring their confessions of espionage was aired on one of Iran's provincial network channels. Isobel Yeung might wonder why they didn't prevent her from entering the country in the first place. They had her on their radar and waited to see what she was up to. When she waw about to depart, they arrested her and seized her footage. Why did they seize her footage? Because she was attempting to incite chaos, whether knowingly or unknowingly. Recently, we have seen many RUclipsrs in Iran, filming their travel vlogs, and none of them were stopped. You might wonder why? It's because those RUclipsrs are minding their own business and enjoying their trips, while you are meddling in a country's internal affairs, which in this case were orchestrated and executed by Iran's sworn enemies. Ibrahim Alizade, the Kurdish communist politician, the official spokesperson of the Komalah Kurdistan's Organization of the Communist Party of Iran (Komalah), and concurrently the first secretary of Komalah, confirmed in an interview on the Saudi-funded Iran International satellite channel, after his statement about the death of Mahsa Amini, that it was their doing. He stated, and I quote the English translation: "If we want these battles to reach a definitive conclusion, we must clearly define these future movements and future political tactics. The fundamental difference that this movement had with other protests that have taken place in Iran in recent years is that this movement was conscious, led, and organized, and its day and time were determined, and its result is also determined." Farsi transcript: اگر بخواهیم این مبارزات به نتیجه قطعی برسه بایستی این حرکت های آینده و تاکتیک های سیاسی آینده رو بطور مشخص معلوم کنیم. تفاوتی اساسی که این حرکت با بقیه اعتراضاتی که سال های گذشته در سطح ایران داشته اینکه این حرکت آگاهانه، رهبری شده، و سازمان داده شده بوده، و روز و ساعتش معین بوده و نتیجه اش هم معین هست.
Isobel Young’s fearlessness as a journalist will always leave my jaw dropped. Incredible bravery and work in this video, I hope the women in Iran find freedom one day 👏💔
What an embarrassment to get kicked out within one day for breaking their visa conditions that they agreed to adhere to before they flew to Iran. Then the audacity to claim they put a gun to her head is so ridiculous 😭
As a young Iranian in Iran who participated in the same demonstrations you were taken away from, your journalism has left me speechless. Thank you, truly. Your bravery and courage is something any journalist should aspire to attain.

Few people know that 97% of our money supply is created not by the government (or the central bank), but by commercial banks in the form of loans. As the results of our recent #poll show, most MPs lack a sufficient understanding of money creation. A worrying number of our MPs do not understand where money comes from. This leaves them ill-equipped to predict another financial crisis, deal with rising debt, housing bubbles or understand a fundamental driver of inequality. #PositiveMoney.

Thirteen years ago, in a documentary called "The Money Masters", we asked the question why is America going broke. It wasn't clear then that we were, but it is today. Now the question is how can we get out of this mess. Foreclosures are everywhere, unemployment is #skyrocketing - and this is only the beginning. America's economy is on a long, slippery slope from here on. The bubble ride of debt has come to an end. What can government do? The sad answer is - under the current monetary system - nothing. It's not going to get better until the root of the problem is understood and addressed. There isn't enough stimulus money in the entire world to get us out of this hole. Why? Debt. The national debt is just like our consumer debt - it's the "principal and"(personal addition) interest killing us. Though most people don't realize it the government can't just issue it's own money anymore. It used to be that way. The King could just issue stuff called money. Abraham Lincoln did it to win the Civil War. Now, today, in our crazy money system, the government has to borrow our money into existence and then pay interest on it. That's why they call it the National Debt. All our money is created out of debt. Politicians who focus on reducing the National Debt as an answer probably don't know what the National Debt really is. To reduce the National Debt would be to reduce our money - and there's already too little of that. No, you have to go deeper. You have to get at the root of this problem or we're never going to fix this. The solution isn't new or radical. America used to do it. Politicians used to fight with big bankers over it. It's all in our history - now sadly - in the distant past. But why can't we just do it again? Why can't we just issue our own money, debt free? That, my friends, is the answer. Talk about reform! That's the only reform that will make a huge difference to everyone's life - even worldwide. The solution is the secret that's been hidden from us for just over 100 years - ever since the time when author L. Frank Baum wrote "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz." www.filmsforaction.org/watch/the-secret-of-oz-2009 #PositiveMoney. #Borrowing from privately owned/funded Central Banks #legally through legal instruments creating #debt as supposed to creating your #money #lawfully is a #crime against #humanity. "It is well enough that people of the nation do not understand our banking and monetary system, for if they did, I believe there would be a revolution before tomorrow morning." - Henry Ford. #PositiveMoney. “The issue which has swept down the centuries and which will have to be fought sooner or later is the people versus the banks.”― #LordActon. #PositiveMoney. #PositiveMoney started in the UK, and is now also in Europe and USA.

Without Khamenei Iran situation could be like Iraq or Syria or Afghan or Libya. People's of Iran should be thankful to Khamenei for what he gave done to Iran. And Sharia law is very good
Props to these men who don't support the regime. Women can go uncover because this new era of young men are not so harsh on them. They're not insulting and harassing these girls, they want to live in piece and care for each other, that's so beautiful.
@@JohnDoe-qh5xg well that’s good. At least they don’t see a women in a bikini in a beach and go hard like it’s the most exotic thing. Nah lust is something you can control. In Muslim you basically cover up everything and eliminate everything that causes you to have desire, lust or greed instead of eliminating them in your mind and controlling yourself.
@@JohnDoe-qh5xgIn some African tribes women would go around with their breasts out. They didn't see it as taboo, they didn't even think about it, they saw it as it was: a natural part of the woman's body. A woman's body is not sexual, sex is. The more you hide things, the more you will obsess over it. Let it sit in the light of the day and the thoughts won't preoccupy you anymore. They will be there, but you'll learn to control yourself. A man is not a pig, a man can control itself and the notion that you need to hide lust behind a veil to not act on it IS what transforms men into mindless pigs and women into food. That doesn't mean that I think porn is good, but desensitization to "nudity" is. Our bodies are not sexual when we're not using it for sexual means.
Yeah she is extremely brave. The scariest interview I think she did was when she was literally asking similar questions to a Taliban member in Afghanistan.
@@Aksarallah Her agenda being to get insights into the human rights abuse that they are perpetrating I assume. It doesn't take a genius to condemn these religion-based authoritarian regimes who are so conniving and calculated in the way the present, repress and control their people and media.
as an Iranian teenager who is going through this, I'm so glad I have my Iranian friends who don't leave me alone. I'm also thankful to my men who are supporting our women in these tough days. in the recent protests we saw and felt everything. I felt the heat of my same-ages' blood on my skin. now I know what my goal is. to escape from Iran. I literally hate to be in the middle east. just take a look at Iran's elite schools or top universities, none students want to stay here. they all study hard to migrate. it's so heartbreaking to say in our country success is to migrate 🥲
I’m still dreaming of coming to Iran, Ig is sad what happened to your country. Your country is so beautiful, the culture and history. I hope one day if everything is okay and by the time I could travel there I hope I’m still here. Can still enjoy this country. ❤
@@corazonjediyeah you can determine that through a comment? Broaden your horizons and maybe communicate with people around this world. Most women I've made friends with that are from Middle East(Saudi Arabia, Iran, Jordan) say country is beautiful, men and government are overbearing and they are all now in USA studying or working in a lab(med field). They couldn't wait to get out of the home country. All their relationships and friendships have to be secret from family. Like what kind of life is that?
Ive never seen Isobel so shaken - and she's been in all kinds of situations; cartels, drug wars, stages of state destabilization. This must have been a truly terrifying situation.. Thank you for bringing this to us. The team here deserves nothing but the highest of accolades for their journalistic courage.
@@resevoirdogngl tho if you’ve been watching her work for at least a decade its really just something.. the news she bring is crazy to pull off. and its true she has interviewed taliban, isis members and like front lines where artillery hits and other terrorists
Thats because cartels and drug wars only kill to further their profits. These guys in iran kill women to stay in power. They see them as less than human.
Some people drink contaminated water with cadmium, plastic particles etc.. And for some who drink pure water even a small contamination is threat to whole fresh water .
I love her courage, she sat Infront of one of the most brainwashed and a real terrorist and asked her questions that she clearly had no answer for, and calling IR not a democracy was the best thing ever. Thank you for this
knowing people have sharing a same idea with the same exact words makes me feel more alive and less disappointed 🫣♻️ you described them both very wisely 👍
let me explain some thing to you plz.. there are few brain washed people in IR government but she is NOT one of them.. they know every thing bc they traveled to many countries & they have young kids with internet and social media … they choose this path for power & money, in Iran you do not need to have university degrees or be an elite , you just need to sell your soul and work for government meanwhile fighting against your own people , thats why we have the first place in educated people doctors or engineers immigration even more than countries at war. i guess you have the better view of this witch character now😅😌 god bless♻️🙌🏼
Maybe instead of telling women to wear a hijab/niqab to "protect themselves" which i suppose is from men, teach these men basic morality and desency instead.
It’s dangerous and yet still happens so one does walk into a theocratic country and talk about freedom and liberty. She literally interviewed officials
I am absolutely blown away by the questions the reporter was asking! I'm also completely blown away that she didn't find herself accidentally "falling out her hotel window" or worse. Her courage in the face of such a brutal regime is incredibly inspiring and I'm very happy that she's still with us to continue the crusade to free the good people of Iran from a regime that absolutely does not deserve to continue in any way, shape or form.
@@KoroushRP if half the population can't leave their home without a male escort or have their head and arms uncovered to feel the sun, I would say it's pretty authoritarian. Or at least the people being forced to live a way they may not choose if they had a choice might say that.
That young boy in "08:51" pointing out how the protests are not about showing more body but how a woman lost her life because of hijab sums up much of it all.
What VICE is not telling you: Saudi Arabia has a much more restrictive hijab law than Iran. Iranian women can show a little bit of the hair. Not so in Saudi Arabia. But it is Iran which gets the criticism because it is not a US / western ally like Saudi Arabia.
i'm a man and I'll admit the reporter has bigger balls than myself. Wonderful job. I wish iran to become a democracy, peace and prosperity to it's people
Get educated, when you are nation at a constant threat of being invaded by west, They will do whatever to protect its people. Iran was my HOME and still is, its another thing that i today fear going around knowing these protestors might attack me to show their DEFIANCE. The west need to be better For it to be treated GOOD in Iran.

@@harf86 Vice is a propaganda outlet trying to manufacture consent for a war with Iran. Got to make you hate the Iranian government, religious practices, how they treat people to do that. Same as before the Iraq War and Syrian, Libyan wars etc….why are people fooled by this? Iran is not perfect, definitely in regards to Western ideas women’s rights, but let them practice things they way they want to.
As an Iranian living in Iran, watching this video left me speechless and sent shivers down my spine. fearless pursuit of truth in the face of such a repressive regime is nothing short of heroic. The questions she asked and the risks she took to uncover the harsh realities in Iran are a testament to her unwavering commitment to journalism. It takes incredible courage to venture into such dangerous territory, especially as a woman. Isobel and her team deserve all the accolades for delivering raw, captivating, and eye-opening stories that the world urgently needs to hear. This is journalism at its finest, and they have my utmost respect and admiration.
This is cheap journalism that is rehashing western-created and well-funded propaganda and agitation. Perhaps isobel should do some real journalism in G..az..a and stop harassing people who have a different view and customs. Or wait, she makes more money in propagating falsehoods and simplistic western narratives against the west's enemy Iran than she does reporting the truth on western allies like Saudi arabia and is.ra.el.
As an Iranian woman, I thank you for your efforts and bravery to raise awareness! may all women be liberated from these oppressors. #WomanLifeFreedom 💚🤍❤️ زن، زندگی، آزادی.
Fight! American stands with you! The only way things change is if LARGE groups meet and protest. Get your entire school and protest peacefully if you have to! ❤
As an Iranian, I am in aw of your journalism. I am very grateful for your honesty and your fearless spirit that you made viewers truly feel how they lie to your face and in the back send some people to hold guns on your heads. This journalism made me emotional. Iran will be freed and this land will flourish once again!
@@yankiefrenz1367 Leave my Country. Iran is not for you. It belongs to Iranian people. You can't hold on to it forever when people are completely different from the regime ruling over them.
You're a brave person of strong morals. I wish you all the best. The very first time I learned about Iran was through Kapuściński's reportage, "Shah of Shahs", original title "Szachinszach", about the 1979 Teheran uprising. I was a kid, it was an obligatory book for my classes in 2012. I was left speechless the moment I discovered the involvement of foreign forces that manipulated your history for their own gain, forever changing the fabric of your country. I couldn't understand. I'm so moved by the strength of young people today who bravely and strongly rebel. I'd like everybody to be safe but is sitting quiet safe anyway? My best wishes.

@@vovac8915 Whenever Saudi people protest like us, then I accept your words. But I'll tell you an interesting fact: In Iran in the 80s, we didn't even have the right to VHS, and the hijab situation was 100 years worse, as you can see, we have fewer hijabs than the Arabs. The reason is 40 years of protest and death in this way. But when Real Madrid player Ramos says in Arabsan, you don't have freedom and democracy. The majority of Saudi people do not like it.
@@vovac8915 This is an obvious lie! After MBS it is only mandatory to wear head-covering in 2 cities, Mecca and Medina. All you had to do was a simple search! Not a fan of Saudi government btw!
The most damning part of the interview with The Minister of Women's Affairs is when she said "We consider hijab as a kind of safety" at the 25:45 mark. It is "safety" because wearing the hijab will help women avoid being beaten by a people who believe women should always wear them.
Shows you how many ga'zillion of years ahead we are compared to ppl whom think like this. All of these social issues stemming from how absorbed that part of the world is steeped in in-regards to the moral-dimension of Islam (but more greatly, Abrahamic-religions- I'm not only trying to punch at Islam here. Abrahamist-religions are the culprits behind holding back human progress imho).
Do you know why this is an issue in Iran? The monarchy that the UK and US supported for decades suddenly banned hijab in a predominantly Muslim country. This led to a lot of stress for women who were not comfortable with going into society without it. It led to a lot of women isolating themselves at home, some even committing suicide. A few decades later, some time after the revolution took place in 1979, some of those more hardline clerics and their supporters remembered that, and determined that they'd make hijab compulsory. Either way it's a problem forcing women to wear it or not wear it. But the cultural context is very important to understand what's going on, instead of thinking you Westerners are the more "ahead" and "civilized" ones. So many of our country's problems originate from the actions of your governments. It's the same across a lot of other countries throughout the world.
The last minutes of this had me CHOKED. This woman is so, so brave, talking to a Government official of IRAN like that. Insane amount of courage, and bravery.
@@Linogewillkillallofy lol - exactly! We've listened all kind of bad stories about Iran (and the rest of that region) for decades. When you look at everything they've lied to us about things from our daily lives how can anyone think that the stories about Iran are true. Take some time and watch several videos from top 5, or top 10 RUclipsrs that travel the world and check their videos from Iran. In every single one of them videos you'll hear them repeatedly saying how they can't believe the scale of how much all of us are influenced by all the propaganda our media is constantly shoving down our throats. Even they, the world travelers known by their open minded approach to different cultures, different people, different customs, etc.. ...even they were influenced to a degree. That's the conclusion that all of them came to. Re her going there and "being brave" for talking to Iranian Gov. official like she did - all she did was asking bunch of loaded questions, loaded with info from our news channels, and not for a second was she event thinking to accept any answer the Iranian woman gave her. I've expected much more from this video. It ended up being just a continuation of what we hear every day for the last few decades.
@@blackdynamite_5470 Allahs rules dictated for 1400 years ago and still is, allah should send us another book with new rules that match up with today's standard.

Exactly, it doesn't, until another gabriel angel comes and tells another mohammed about what god said to him. But who is going to believe that, why should they believe that when they have the quran the god almighty book. It doesn't make sense.
I usually avoid recalling memories of those days and the things we've gone through. I really respect your report as someone who has seen those days. I remember the hope of overthrowing the dictator, the anger we had after brutally murdering Mahsa Amini and denying the cause of her death, and also the fear of death and prison and torture we all had. I'll share some of the memories I have from that time here: In the first days of the protests after brutally murdering Mahsa Amini, I decided to go to the downtown to directly get involved into the protests. There were many of the regime's "special guard" and also many people who were there to start protesting. A man chanted slogans and they chased him and hit him with taser and baton and forcing him to get into a police van. He was just an ordinary person being hit for what he said. I walked by and kept silent. A little further I found a group of people and joined them, there were people from all ages, teenager, mature and old people, man and woman. We walked a little bit and shouted and chanted slogans. After a while, we heard a sound; it was around 20 guards riding motorcycles, shooting tear gas and firing paintballs, I was shot with paintball which didn't hurt because it was from far away, and also the tear gas entered my eyes. I separated from the people and hid in a nearby restaurant. luckily they didn't enter the restaurant. I stood there for a little bit and took breath and drank some water. As I saw it safe outside, I moved to find group of people.There were a lot of "special guards" and also some regime's men who were dressed just like ordinary people. After walking a little bit further, I saw three women standing arm in arm in front of around 20 "special guards" on the other side of the road. I stood and cursed. Then suddenly the "special guards" started attacking them with taser and baton, a man stood against them and tried to protect the women and the guards hit him hard until he was bleeding. I shouted and cursed but suddenly saw a regime's man who was dressed like other people touching me and telling me, "what are you saying?". He didn't want to catch me because he was one and the reason he was there was to identify and follow, not to be recognized. After that I changed my path a few times to be sure no one is following me. Things have changed a lot since then. Many university students have been banned from entering their universities or from continuing their education, a lot of teachers and professors were fired from schools and universities. People have lost their lives some have become blind after the guards shooting at them with real guns. It has damaged our emotions after seeing so much cruelty and pain. Most of the things have not been joyful since then. I'm not sure what will happen in the future, I hope freedom and happiness and felicity for my people. God bless us all.
Really feeling sad of what you and most of the Iranians have gone through. I really hope and pray that one day you will be free from the cruel Mullahs. Love ❤️ and best wishes for your revolution from India 🇮🇳
Dear Soheil, thank you for sharing your experience. I can't imagine how difficult it is for you and the people of Iran. All I can say is that we are astounded by the bravery and strength of Iranian people, as demonstrated by your own experience, and I truly hope that better times come to Iran again.
Persian people are one of the most intelligent people. Unfortunately, a religious extremist government has damaged Iran. Need to keep the religion and government separate.
I mean even small 6-7 yrs old girls in back at some scenes in video were seen in full hijab-burkha cover, so Ain't it's them men who's evil who feel tempted or aroused by literal kid without hair cover or complete body cover in black tent, Ain't it's them islamic revolutionary guard members psychopaths who while sitting over chest of 16yr old Nika sakarami (with her hands tied back in trucks back compartment) in to order to torture her said that he got aroused so groped her buttocks & put hands in her pants
If you read western literature and essays about life in Europe and USA ,you would know it was the same about a hundred years ago for women in these regions also. Not just wrists , ankles also and hands . Hence they wore gloves not to physically touch strange men’s hands , it was for fashion as we are led to believe . The difference is the west has completely lost its sense of modesty, now we can walk around topless in some American states or just wear nipple covers . Is this extreme form of immodesty in the name of freedom what we desire? It’s the degradation of society . Regarding hijab and women can choose . But if it’s an Islamic state and the shariah laws are implemented then there is no choice on obligatory matters . Hijab is obligatory . So the only solution is for those who don’t want to follow the laws is to relocate . I know relocation isn’t always an option, especially when finances are involved . But would we encourage ppl to break the laws in Britain for example because we didn’t like them? Sadly we have to follow the laws. And if we choose violence to force change then we have to be open to violence in return . The governments won’t walk away silently Btw I do wear hijab, but I came to it myself . I’m not sure how I would have felt about being forced to wear it. I guess if that’s what happened in my country from puberty I would have viewed it as the “norm”. But as it is I lived in a home which was Muslim but quite liberal in not implementing this and other religious practises . But I had the opportunity to understand hijab and why it’s an obligation in my faith. I think a lot of these women protesting don’t truly know the concept of hijab. They are simply viewing it as a tool of oppression because this is what the government and media has portrayed And if they have personally been assaulted for not wearing hijab, what other reaction can we expect ?
@@annguha9000 it’s not really disgusting. Anything can be pretty when it comes to your partner. But needing half of the population to cover up because they literally lust all over is. Disgusting how it’s these religious men that can’t control their minds rather than the normal men. Funny.
I agree. She's put herself into so many dangerous situations and always asks the best tough questions. I wonder if they uploaded all of their Iran footage to the cloud before the authorities took it all away? What a fucked up government.
If they go back to making quality non biased factual non propaganda again maybe they will survive as a company. They have gotten way to woke for most people hence the company’s current financial situation.
I am Iranian, and I can't stop crying after watching this. I beg you to share this video. It is so important for us to aware the world for the reality of our country. I get easily arrested, tortured and even get killed. Our only weapon against them is media and spreading the news.
Then how can you explain the joy and jubilation when the new regime came to power in 1979? The Iranian people, whom I admire, were unhappy with the Shah, only to get this.
@Vetcoach Shah regime was't perfect either, but my best description is that people were fooled by the communism and islamic propaganda against Shah. Additionally, the new generations are sick of islam and every religion, they hate our fathers who brought islamic republic in this country, and even now, many of these old people regret what they did. All I'm saying is that the way we think is too far from what our government exhibits to the world. No one got happier when Ghasem Solaymani died than Iranians, and no one gets happier than Iranians when Khamenei dies.
@@shayanahmadi5611 What you're saying is mainly lies. Majority of Iranians identify as Muslim, support Sharia (over 80%), and loved Solemani.

This woman has the courage of an army. Isobel knows that women and girls risk death in order to spread the message she gives to the authorities and wastes no time getting to the facts. This is what heroism looks like. I pray that one day, sooner rather than later, we can look back and see these as pivotal moments in the inevitable revolution.
Dear, this is a propaganda video. Please watch only 5 minutes of this video from inside Iran and tell me if it supports what she is claiming. ruclips.net/video/-XSYvFVDPHI/видео.html . Iranian women are some of the most educated, socially placed and protected. Please do your research or let me know if you need any additional information about Iran and the reason why such propaganda is happening.
8:49 I was so impressed on how brave the young man butted in to explain it to his mom. He humanized the conflict; while still respecting the beliefs, traditions & values of the older generation. He knows this is about something bigger than a traditional piece of cloth. This is about the future of his country & Iranian youth want change.
@@dsrtsnw he was starting a sentence with „in man-“ which means something like „that, I-“ but changed his sentence to another start, so it doesn’t really mean anything lol
As an Iranian I salute you for your bravery girl you were right in their faces I am so proud of you ! Thank you for reporting about one of our many struggles !
Hey i wanted to ask you a question if u dont mind im from Israel and i wanted to know how the people of iran feel about the whole situation with the war
@Ophadelax nah we don't, we dont support kids being buried alive in rubble . Bore off. The so called west supports the killing of innocent civilians waving white flags and bulldozing people alive. Nah, we can see a genocide in real Time now. They are collectively punishing civilians and stopping charities from bringing food and water in . They don't care about human rights, don't fall for their facade.
The interview situation with the Minister felt intensely toxic. I wonder how pissed she already was by Isobel's way of wearing the hijab. And the way she let herself fall back onto the backrest of her chair and turned away her eyes after answering made me feel like she wished to kill the VICE team for such straightforward questions. Knowing she would create more of a problem with imprisoning them or worse, she knew she had to bite the bullet and let them go, which pissed her even more. Very brave endeavor, the entire report. The Iranian people deserve to succeed in their efforts to overcome the regime. I hope, those in power today and those 'security' forces, who tortured and killed harmless citizens due to their alternative opinion will be in prison soon. And the political prisoners of today will be free.
What VICE is not telling you: Saudi Arabia has a much more restrictive hijab law than Iran. Iranian women can show a little bit of the hair. Not so in Saudi Arabia. But it is Iran which gets the criticism because it is not a US / western ally like Saudi Arabia..
Religion is never the problem, its the hunger of humans to corrupt power. Prophet (Sm) in his lifetime never forced anyone to wear hijab. There is not a single verse in Quran that forces any rules on anybody. Radicalism is the problem.
As an Iranian living in this hellish place, it pains me to see this happening to you! this video is a masterpiece and it highlights the true colors of this oppressive regime. Thanks for the amazing work you guys are so brave.
@@gonfreaks937 no you don't get "a completely other picture" You get a picture. Fact is in iran, People have been trying to have a normal life despite all these things. You have parties never have i seen a segregated ( men/women ) party. Few if any people in private ( parties etc ) covering their hair. Iranian birthday party video's were sold in paki and afghan stores ... kinda like porn for them lol You have reasonably big parties ( called underground) these basij, revolutionary guard just get paid to f off lol At the moment some parts of bigger cities you hardly get a feeling that you are under this islamic thugs....... these girls just have balls and go far ... very far and take risks, huge risks. Iranian government is not anymore islamic.... they are bandits..... You can't even have a real islamic government, because this government has completely killed islam. No traditionally islamic country comes even close to iran, in the sense of non-religiousness...... You may call iranians the islam hating nation lol ( sure you still have some religious people but they are in minority. All tgis government does is steel..... they are importing soldiers to keep this milk-cow called iran. From afghanistan, irak, palestine, lebanon etc. Even the basij etc can not be trusted by them.... they know they are working for a bunch of thieves who all have houses in us, canada and UK....

Oh yeah, it's so difficult being in a country that can actually hold its own against the West. Not like living in Palestine, Libya, Syria, or Sudan, which is OBVIOUSLY a much easier and more peaceful life. It's like listening to an American complain about being first-world poor because he can't afford an iPhone while children in other countries are dying by gunfire or starvation.
After spending 40 days in Iran during the protests myself. I have to say that what I just witnessed Isobel do in this video is probably the bravest and most selfless act in all television history. I am incredibly happy to see that all of you made it out alive and THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart for creating such meaningful stories that have the potential to change the lives of millions. 🙏❤️
This documentary was mind-blowing; she took bravery to the next level because she understood the people's pain within society. I’m glad you are safe and made it out of the country. ❤
Don't be too happy lol practically the whole country is trying to leave.... some specially the famous or influential people are prohibited to leave.... or are subject of murder in other countries.... when they fail to kill them they ask the governments of usa or belgium etc. to harass them in the form of scaring them or trying to convince them to go into witness protection programs ( thus never to speak and disappear ..... yes Biden is this kind of angel of democracy hahahahaha )

This journalist is incredibly brave and outspoken. As as Iranian I sincerly appreciate your reporting. You are shedding ligh on a very dark middle age brutal regime taken Iran hostage. Well done!
Incredibly one sided. We have 4/5 women being sexually assaulted but you call them liberated. We have an issue with an ageing population. You call their families ants and say they’re destroying this fine planet. We are backwards. They want life and a secure family. Nothing is perfect in life but if swap my capitalist life for theirs ANYDAY.

after the uyghur genocide story, one has to very careful about what vice puts out as documentary, everything they are doing looks like they are operating under state department propaganda objectives.

A big respect to the journalists who bravely reported the truth of what is happening in Iran despite the regime's oppression. Truly, one of the best docus Vice has ever done.
Very one-sided propaganda of American trends. They didn't even try to explain the government side for 1 second. Do the media behave professionally when creating an image by standing on one side of the conflict? Editors must be objective and not makeing their own views and opinions. Such nonsense can gain the approval of the majority, not the intelligentsia... If I had to choose between viral vixens and the morality police, I would 100% choose the rules over prostitution and schizophrenia. In fact, these forces are one of the unfortunately few advantages of the Iranian regime. They try to beat the system, but they attack things that actually work well when there are plenty of really bad facts out there. You love this "viral" world so much. But only people who can think, know what the meaning of this word is. Mental illnesses do spread virally with such "liberty" movements as viruses do, rapidly. I prefer to live in Iran than in the USA. It's good that here in Poland there are still many people who resist crazy trends. Oh, I forgot "crazy" and "insane" to you it means good, that's how the ill brain works, rewarding psychoses because it is addicted to them, and strong feelings are rewarded better than good ones, it is scientifically prove, thats why psychopats existe.
As a Turk and neighbour of Iran I want to thank Atatürk for saving and preventing our country from becoming like Iran 100 years ago and founding the republic as a secular state. That man saw the danger of the effects of the sultanate and islam. I hope the Iranian people will get liberated from this hell one day as free people.
I hope she will have the honesty and courage to prepare a report on the dictatorships of the Persian Gulf, which are hereditary governments and have good relations with the West, or on the Gaza genocide.

The West has tried military intervention and failed. Tried sanctions and failed. Now they are grasping at provoking the population for so called human rights. The goal is the same, to subjugate iran. The West cares so much about hijab huh? Yeah right. Where are your human rights for G.az.a? Forget about hijab, a non-issue if there ever was one. The issue of hijab is chosen because it has many easy tropes to tap into. What you are witnessing is the biggest propaganda effort to divert and dilute your attention from the real oppressors, the West. Why all these anti-Iran pieces now? Because G.az.a has decimated the Western case on being on the moral high ground. Don't fall into propaganda. It is never about human rights or caring for the rights of women, it is about money and influence in the Western sphere. Iran is a huge thorn for the West. It is a country that is firm in its positions and has countless resources and history. Silly Iranians, don't be subjugated by the smallest of issues like hijab.

Brings tears to your eyes when you see this level of fearless, investigative journalism with a humanist touch. Hats off to Vice and Isobel who boldly confronted these rigid, narrow-minded, horrible people who supress and torture women in the name of their protection.
from what i see is they are trying to protect their country from American influence which is what every country on the planet needs to do or else end up like ukraine and iraq
Iran is an important and strategic country in the West Asia region. America, Israel and its allies always seek to make Iran insecure so that they can do the same things that happened in Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, Yemen and Palestine in Iran. Of course, there are deceived people in every country, but most people are aware of the threat of enemies and do not play on their ground. We Iranian people have no problem in terms of security and freedom and all people should respect the laws.
I am so impressed by this report. Thank you for your brave work and showing us what it is like in Iran after the big wave of protests. Thank you Isobel Yeung and your team!

The women-led uprising was orchestrated by Komalah and Mojahedin-e-Khalq (MEK), with the assistance of MI6 and Mossad, in an attempt to plunge Iran into chaos once again. The false information that she had been beaten was initially reported on BBC News, VOA Persian, and Saudi-funded Iran International satellite channels. This narrative was propagated by her cousin (on her mother's side), Erfan Mortezaei, a member of Komalah and an operative, who was not even present at the time of her arrest. Mahsa's brother, who was with her at the moment of her arrest, neither reported nor mentioned anything about any beating. Her parents saw their daughter's body when she was pronounced dead and also stated that there was no evidence of beating. They were the ones who revealed that their daughter had undergone brain surgery, not the Iranian government. After a few days, they changed their narrative following a meeting with her uncle, Safa Aeli (from her mother's side), a Kurdish resident who was neither with Mahsa at the time of her arrest nor saw Mahsa's body. After this meeting, they began appearing on the aforementioned satellite channels and started to protest. It is worth pondering why they changed their minds after the meeting with her uncle. The video recording of Mahsa's arrest and the CCTV footage of her arrival at the detention center are widely available on the internet. She was neither beaten nor bled from any part of her body. Upon her arrival at the detention center, a female officer instructed her to sit, and she complied by sitting on a chair. After a few moments, she stood up and then fell unconscious. The fact that Iran arrested two French spies, Cecile Kohler and Jacques Paris, who were attempting to recruit and coach teachers in Iran during the unrest, speaks volumes. A documentary featuring their confessions of espionage was aired on one of Iran's provincial network channels. Isobel Yeung might wonder why they didn't prevent her from entering the country in the first place. They had her on their radar and waited to see what she was up to. When she waw about to depart, they arrested her and seized her footage. Why did they seize her footage? Because she was attempting to incite chaos, whether knowingly or unknowingly. Recently, we have seen many RUclipsrs in Iran, filming their travel vlogs, and none of them were stopped. You might wonder why? It's because those RUclipsrs are minding their own business and enjoying their trips, while you are meddling in a country's internal affairs, which in this case were orchestrated and executed by Iran's sworn enemies. Ibrahim Alizade, the Kurdish communist politician, the official spokesperson of the Komalah Kurdistan's Organization of the Communist Party of Iran (Komalah), and concurrently the first secretary of Komalah, confirmed in an interview on the Saudi-funded Iran International satellite channel, after his statement about the death of Mahsa Amini, that it was their doing. He stated, and I quote the English translation: "If we want these battles to reach a definitive conclusion, we must clearly define these future movements and future political tactics. The fundamental difference that this movement had with other protests that have taken place in Iran in recent years is that this movement was conscious, led, and organized, and its day and time were determined, and its result is also determined." Farsi transcript: اگر بخواهیم این مبارزات به نتیجه قطعی برسه بایستی این حرکت های آینده و تاکتیک های سیاسی آینده رو بطور مشخص معلوم کنیم. تفاوتی اساسی که این حرکت با بقیه اعتراضاتی که سال های گذشته در سطح ایران داشته اینکه این حرکت آگاهانه، رهبری شده، و سازمان داده شده بوده، و روز و ساعتش معین بوده و نتیجه اش هم معین هست.

The civil war in Iran, Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan and other countries is not for the benefit of the people, but for the benefit of their opposing governments
I am Iranian and I think you are very brave to ask some of those questions and in a no nonsense manner. Islamic Republic is no joke and they take dissidence very seriously. I would say at least 70percent of the population want regime change. It may be as high as 85%
No what you’re saying is not true. If 85% of Iranians wanted regime change, the current government would have been overthrown in a matter of days. The truth is majority of Iranians (83%) voted for Sharia. So it’s not going to change for a long time.
This is called true journalism.. thank you for making such great honest report from the inside and asking those questions.. This just shows a tiny tiny bit of what people in Iran have been suffering with daily for the past 40 something years!!
She should show how millions of people in the Middle east are suffering from the Western illegal invasions. She should make a video about the millions of innocent people killed in the middle East after being illegally invaded by the West.. She should make avideo about all the warcrimes the west has committed in the Middle East. Or make a video about how the West is never punished for al the crimes the have committed. Iraq 1 million dead, Syria 500.000 dead, Afghanistan 250.000 dead, Yemen 350.000 dead. this is just a small list.. Yes, the West is so brave and they care so much about freedom and HUman rights..🤣 Btw The West is also still occupying iraq and stealing their oil.. Why does the West need a safezone in Baghdad? Arent they the good guys? They liberated Iraq right? So why are Westerners not safe in Iraq, why do Iraqis want to kill Westerners? I don't understand, the West are the good guys, right???
@@smallpeople172 it shows what a bunch of hypocrites the West are.. This video is made to manipulate people like you into believing that Iran is evil. They are not like you, the "good guys".

Westerners shouldn't be pointing fingers and lecturing others, they are in no position to do so, they are the worst offenders of Human Rights... It's not Iran invading other nations and killing millions of people, that's the West! So who are you to lecture anyone? Why don't you worry more about the mass killings your nation has committed, why do people like you care more about how women are dressed in Iran instead of the warcrimes The West has committed? You people never talk about how evil you are, but you love to point fingers at others like the hypocrites you are. Do you not see how hypocritical the West is, are you truly that blind? Whatever, go live in your fantasy world, we are not blind, we see what you people are doing..

"Many residents don't obey the dress code such as myself" Yeah, judging by your name and avatar pic, you're a man. There is no hijab for you so saying you don't observe it is like saying water is wet.
@@donaldnuney6347 Ffs, way to miss the point of ANY of this. Can you understand that it's not all about what you or other men find attractive? Can you understand that women in Iran are in this situation precisely because some men decided that their opinions on what's beautiful and classy in a woman is SOOO important, just like you did right now? It doesn't matter that you draw the line in a different place than those men - you still seem to be looking at women like their main value lies in how well they fit in with your expectations of attractiveness. Support women because they're human beings like yourself. Not because you want to be able to ogle them.

"Not killing people is a moral thing and a moral thing should not be mandatory or binding. If someone doesn't kill someone out of fear, that lack of murder has no value". What sort of logic is that? Mandatory hijab or not is a different question, but that logic is not going to be used anywhere else.

Here in the USA, people listen to ranting phony feminists with a fetish for telling women that "we are soooooo oppressed." Yet -- they don't realize how PRIVILEGED THEY TRULY ARE HERE. The irony is that these phony feminists align themselves with supporters of open borders -- the type of people that want to let in ALL MALE jihadists, misogynists, wife beaters, and men who have the archaic mentality that subjugates women.
The tragedy is Iranian people are educated and enlightened but their rulers all religious nightmare. Wish the people could just find a way to over power them all and free Iran.

The women-led uprising was orchestrated by Komalah and Mojahedin-e-Khalq (MEK), with the assistance of MI6 and Mossad, in an attempt to plunge Iran into chaos once again. The false information that she had been beaten was initially reported on BBC News, VOA Persian, and Saudi-funded Iran International satellite channels. This narrative was propagated by her cousin (on her mother's side), Erfan Mortezaei, a member of Komalah and an operative, who was not even present at the time of her arrest. Mahsa's brother, who was with her at the moment of her arrest, neither reported nor mentioned anything about any beating. Her parents saw their daughter's body when she was pronounced dead and also stated that there was no evidence of beating. They were the ones who revealed that their daughter had undergone brain surgery, not the Iranian government. After a few days, they changed their narrative following a meeting with her uncle, Safa Aeli (from her mother's side), a Kurdish resident who was neither with Mahsa at the time of her arrest nor saw Mahsa's body. After this meeting, they began appearing on the aforementioned satellite channels and started to protest. It is worth pondering why they changed their minds after the meeting with her uncle. The video recording of Mahsa's arrest and the CCTV footage of her arrival at the detention center are widely available on the internet. She was neither beaten nor bled from any part of her body. Upon her arrival at the detention center, a female officer instructed her to sit, and she complied by sitting on a chair. After a few moments, she stood up and then fell unconscious. The fact that Iran arrested two French spies, Cecile Kohler and Jacques Paris, who were attempting to recruit and coach teachers in Iran during the unrest, speaks volumes. A documentary featuring their confessions of espionage was aired on one of Iran's provincial network channels. Isobel Yeung might wonder why they didn't prevent her from entering the country in the first place. They had her on their radar and waited to see what she was up to. When she waw about to depart, they arrested her and seized her footage. Why did they seize her footage? Because she was attempting to incite chaos, whether knowingly or unknowingly. Recently, we have seen many RUclipsrs in Iran, filming their travel vlogs, and none of them were stopped. You might wonder why? It's because those RUclipsrs are minding their own business and enjoying their trips, while you are meddling in a country's internal affairs, which in this case were orchestrated and executed by Iran's sworn enemies. Ibrahim Alizade, the Kurdish communist politician, the official spokesperson of the Komalah Kurdistan's Organization of the Communist Party of Iran (Komalah), and concurrently the first secretary of Komalah, confirmed in an interview on the Saudi-funded Iran International satellite channel, after his statement about the death of Mahsa Amini, that it was their doing. He stated, and I quote the English translation: "If we want these battles to reach a definitive conclusion, we must clearly define these future movements and future political tactics. The fundamental difference that this movement had with other protests that have taken place in Iran in recent years is that this movement was conscious, led, and organized, and its day and time were determined, and its result is also determined."

Unfortunately nothing has changed since the protest but things got worse : 1-The chances to leave the country has been more limited , even next to less than %1. 2-Other countries didn't help us and stricted their laws for iranians, which is respectful but painful at the same time.

Very one-sided propaganda of American trends. They didn't even try to explain the government side for 1 second. Do the media behave professionally when creating an image by standing on one side of the conflict? Editors must be objective and not makeing their own views and opinions. Such nonsense can gain the approval of the majority, not the intelligentsia... If I had to choose between viral vixens and the morality police, I would 100% choose the rules over prostitution and schizophrenia. In fact, these forces are one of the unfortunately few advantages of the Iranian regime. They try to beat the system, but they attack things that actually work well when there are plenty of really bad facts out there. You love this "viral" world so much. But only people who can think, know what the meaning of this word is. Mental illnesses do spread virally with such "liberty" movements as viruses do, rapidly. I prefer to live in Iran than in the USA. It's good that here in Poland there are still many people who resist crazy trends. Oh, I forgot "crazy" and "insane" to you it means good, that's how the ill brain works, rewarding psychoses because it is addicted to them, and strong feelings are rewarded better than good ones, it is scientifically prove, thats why psychopats existe.

She doesn't even believe in her own words! ,her 3 sons and one daughter are currently living in United States,freely with the money she is sending to them!! Ironically her oldest son also owns a vpn company and sells proxies for people in Iran.
Just fyi Iran made their own bs religion it has nothing to do with Islam I lived in an Islamic country (in the Arabian gulf) and it was good and better then America and this is coming from a gal hijab is not supposed to be forced nor is the religion Iran is following their own religion
As one who lived and worked in Iran in the 1970's, it looks as though things have become worse, not better. "Morality Police" can be anywhere, even in small villages. Whether they are young or older, male or female, they can cause a lot of trouble. They thought getting rid of the Shah would make things better for everyone...it only made things worse.
Under the Shah, people lived in complete poverty with people living in tent and tiny villages outside of the palaces. Wtf are you talking about? Life is objectively better post Shah
Erm that was when Iran was ruled by a proxy king installed by the CIA, who would funnel off the country's wealth to private companies. Standard of living is way better in Iran now, but so long as it's perceived to be worse than America and Israel, the people will rebel.
Takes some balls to even try to go there and cover this. Let alone being a female and trying to do it in that country. Hats off

On Thursday 20th November 2014, for the first time in 170 years, UK parliament has debated the creation of money. Few people know that 97% of our money supply is created not by the government (or the central bank), but by commercial banks in the form of loans.
As the results of our recent #poll show, most MPs lack a sufficient understanding of money creation. A worrying number of our MPs do not understand where money comes from. This leaves them ill-equipped to predict another financial crisis, deal with rising debt, housing bubbles or understand a fundamental driver of inequality.

Thirteen years ago, in a documentary called "The Money Masters", we asked the question why is America going broke. It wasn't clear then that we were, but it is today. Now the question is how can we get out of this mess. Foreclosures are everywhere, unemployment is #skyrocketing - and this is only the beginning. America's economy is on a long, slippery slope from here on. The bubble ride of debt has come to an end.
What can government do? The sad answer is - under the current monetary system - nothing. It's not going to get better until the root of the problem is understood and addressed. There isn't enough stimulus money in the entire world to get us out of this hole.
Why? Debt. The national debt is just like our consumer debt - it's the "principal and"(personal addition) interest killing us.
Though most people don't realize it the government can't just issue it's own money anymore. It used to be that way. The King could just issue stuff called money. Abraham Lincoln did it to win the Civil War.
Now, today, in our crazy money system, the government has to borrow our money into existence and then pay interest on it. That's why they call it the National Debt. All our money is created out of debt. Politicians who focus on reducing the National Debt as an answer probably don't know what the National Debt really is. To reduce the National Debt would be to reduce our money - and there's already too little of that.
No, you have to go deeper. You have to get at the root of this problem or we're never going to fix this. The solution isn't new or radical. America used to do it. Politicians used to fight with big bankers over it. It's all in our history - now sadly - in the distant past.
But why can't we just do it again? Why can't we just issue our own money, debt free? That, my friends, is the answer. Talk about reform! That's the only reform that will make a huge difference to everyone's life - even worldwide.
The solution is the secret that's been hidden from us for just over 100 years - ever since the time when author L. Frank Baum wrote "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz."

@@JohnDoe-qh5xg well that’s good. At least they don’t see a women in a bikini in a beach and go hard like it’s the most exotic thing. Nah lust is something you can control. In Muslim you basically cover up everything and eliminate everything that causes you to have desire, lust or greed instead of eliminating them in your mind and controlling yourself.
@@JohnDoe-qh5xgIn some African tribes women would go around with their breasts out. They didn't see it as taboo, they didn't even think about it, they saw it as it was: a natural part of the woman's body. A woman's body is not sexual, sex is.
The more you hide things, the more you will obsess over it. Let it sit in the light of the day and the thoughts won't preoccupy you anymore. They will be there, but you'll learn to control yourself. A man is not a pig, a man can control itself and the notion that you need to hide lust behind a veil to not act on it IS what transforms men into mindless pigs and women into food.
That doesn't mean that I think porn is good, but desensitization to "nudity" is. Our bodies are not sexual when we're not using it for sexual means.

I wish you all the best and hope you can live in true freedom one day.

I was a kid, it was an obligatory book for my classes in 2012. I was left speechless the moment I discovered the involvement of foreign forces that manipulated your history for their own gain, forever changing the fabric of your country. I couldn't understand. I'm so moved by the strength of young people today who bravely and strongly rebel. I'd like everybody to be safe but is sitting quiet safe anyway? My best wishes.

What VICE is not telling you: Saudi Arabia has a much more restrictive hijab law than Iran. Iranian women can show a little bit of the hair. Not so in Saudi Arabia. But it is Iran which gets the criticism because it is not a US / western ally like Saudi Arabia.
@@vovac8915 Whenever Saudi people protest like us, then I accept your words. But I'll tell you an interesting fact: In Iran in the 80s, we didn't even have the right to VHS, and the hijab situation was 100 years worse, as you can see, we have fewer hijabs than the Arabs. The reason is 40 years of protest and death in this way. But when Real Madrid player Ramos says in Arabsan, you don't have freedom and democracy. The majority of Saudi people do not like it.
@@vovac8915 ruclips.net/video/YfMcALcjVfk/видео.html VICE news in saudi arabia you 🤡 syberi
@@vovac8915 This is an obvious lie! After MBS it is only mandatory to wear head-covering in 2 cities, Mecca and Medina. All you had to do was a simple search! Not a fan of Saudi government btw!
The most damning part of the interview with The Minister of Women's Affairs is when she said "We consider hijab as a kind of safety" at the 25:45 mark. It is "safety" because wearing the hijab will help women avoid being beaten by a people who believe women should always wear them.
Shows you how many ga'zillion of years ahead we are compared to ppl whom think like this. All of these social issues stemming from how absorbed that part of the world is steeped in in-regards to the moral-dimension of Islam (but more greatly, Abrahamic-religions- I'm not only trying to punch at Islam here. Abrahamist-religions are the culprits behind holding back human progress imho).
Rubbish!
It's all about SEX
And covering up so the 'men's dont get horny

@@noose1911Many of the great scientists, social reformers, and philosophers throughout human history were religious. Stop being dumb.
Do you know why this is an issue in Iran? The monarchy that the UK and US supported for decades suddenly banned hijab in a predominantly Muslim country. This led to a lot of stress for women who were not comfortable with going into society without it. It led to a lot of women isolating themselves at home, some even committing suicide.
A few decades later, some time after the revolution took place in 1979, some of those more hardline clerics and their supporters remembered that, and determined that they'd make hijab compulsory.
Either way it's a problem forcing women to wear it or not wear it. But the cultural context is very important to understand what's going on, instead of thinking you Westerners are the more "ahead" and "civilized" ones. So many of our country's problems originate from the actions of your governments. It's the same across a lot of other countries throughout the world.

Take some time and watch several videos from top 5, or top 10 RUclipsrs that travel the world and check their videos from Iran.

Exactly, it doesn't, until another gabriel angel comes and tells another mohammed about what god said to him. But who is going to believe that, why should they believe that when they have the quran the god almighty book. It doesn't make sense.
I usually avoid recalling memories of those days and the things we've gone through. I really respect your report as someone who has seen those days.
I remember the hope of overthrowing the dictator, the anger we had after brutally murdering Mahsa Amini and denying the cause of her death, and also the fear of death and prison and torture we all had.
I'll share some of the memories I have from that time here:
In the first days of the protests after brutally murdering Mahsa Amini, I decided to go to the downtown to directly get involved into the protests. There were many of the regime's "special guard" and also many people who were there to start protesting. A man chanted slogans and they chased him and hit him with taser and baton and forcing him to get into a police van. He was just an ordinary person being hit for what he said. I walked by and kept silent. A little further I found a group of people and joined them, there were people from all ages, teenager, mature and old people, man and woman. We walked a little bit and shouted and chanted slogans. After a while, we heard a sound; it was around 20 guards riding motorcycles, shooting tear gas and firing paintballs, I was shot with paintball which didn't hurt because it was from far away, and also the tear gas entered my eyes. I separated from the people and hid in a nearby restaurant. luckily they didn't enter the restaurant. I stood there for a little bit and took breath and drank some water. As I saw it safe outside, I moved to find group of people.There were a lot of "special guards" and also some regime's men who were dressed just like ordinary people. After walking a little bit further, I saw three women standing arm in arm in front of around 20 "special guards" on the other side of the road. I stood and cursed. Then suddenly the "special guards" started attacking them with taser and baton, a man stood against them and tried to protect the women and the guards hit him hard until he was bleeding. I shouted and cursed but suddenly saw a regime's man who was dressed like other people touching me and telling me, "what are you saying?". He didn't want to catch me because he was one and the reason he was there was to identify and follow, not to be recognized. After that I changed my path a few times to be sure no one is following me.
Things have changed a lot since then. Many university students have been banned from entering their universities or from continuing their education, a lot of teachers and professors were fired from schools and universities. People have lost their lives some have become blind after the guards shooting at them with real guns. It has damaged our emotions after seeing so much cruelty and pain. Most of the things have not been joyful since then. I'm not sure what will happen in the future, I hope freedom and happiness and felicity for my people. God bless us all.
Really feeling sad of what you and most of the Iranians have gone through. I really hope and pray that one day you will be free from the cruel Mullahs. Love ❤️ and best wishes for your revolution from India 🇮🇳

Is it the hijab that is the problem or is it the brutality of the police?
Persian people are one of the most intelligent people. Unfortunately, a religious extremist government has damaged Iran. Need to keep the religion and government separate.
Physiologists say that women's wrists are very tempting? Wtf, I demand to know which ones are saying that
Exactly thats so sick and disgusting
I mean even small 6-7 yrs old girls in back at some scenes in video were seen in full hijab-burkha cover, so Ain't it's them men who's evil who feel tempted or aroused by literal kid without hair cover or complete body cover in black tent, Ain't it's them islamic revolutionary guard members psychopaths who while sitting over chest of 16yr old Nika sakarami (with her hands tied back in trucks back compartment) in to order to torture her said that he got aroused so groped her buttocks & put hands in her pants
If you read western literature and essays about life in Europe and USA ,you would know it was the same about a hundred years ago for women in these regions also. Not just wrists , ankles also and hands . Hence they wore gloves not to physically touch strange men’s hands , it was for fashion as we are led to believe .
The difference is the west has completely lost its sense of modesty, now we can walk around topless in some American states or just wear nipple covers . Is this extreme form of immodesty in the name of freedom what we desire? It’s the degradation of society .
Regarding hijab and women can choose . But if it’s an Islamic state and the shariah laws are implemented then there is no choice on obligatory matters .
Hijab is obligatory . So the only solution is for those who don’t want to follow the laws is to relocate . I know relocation isn’t always an option, especially when finances are involved . But would we encourage ppl to break the laws in Britain for example because we didn’t like them? Sadly we have to follow the laws. And if we choose violence to force change then we have to be open to violence in return . The governments won’t walk away silently
Btw I do wear hijab, but I came to it myself . I’m not sure how I would have felt about being forced to wear it. I guess if that’s what happened in my country from puberty I would have viewed it as the “norm”.
But as it is I lived in a home which was Muslim but quite liberal in not implementing this and other religious practises . But I had the opportunity to understand hijab and why it’s an obligation in my faith. I think a lot of these women protesting don’t truly know the concept of hijab. They are simply viewing it as a tool of oppression because this is what the government and media has portrayed
And if they have personally been assaulted for not wearing hijab, what other reaction can we expect ?

This is the type of journalism that VICE used to be known for. Great Job!
Vice is 1srae1i propaganda, anything that has to do with Iran or anyone receiving aid from Iran is the “bad guy”.
They've literally never stopped making stuff like this.
What journalism? They took all the footage and showed old videos
Before they went full leftist which has led them on a downward spiral to bankruptcy
If they go back to making quality non biased factual non propaganda again maybe they will survive as a company. They have gotten way to woke for most people hence the company’s current financial situation.
This is why religion and politics should be separated.
What about the crusades that happened due to the cristianity
It literally has nothing to do with the religion their weird government made up a religion of their own
I am Iranian, and I can't stop crying after watching this. I beg you to share this video. It is so important for us to aware the world for the reality of our country. I get easily arrested, tortured and even get killed. Our only weapon against them is media and spreading the news.
Let the women wear bikinis!
Then how can you explain the joy and jubilation when the new regime came to power in 1979? The Iranian people, whom I admire, were unhappy with the Shah, only to get this.
@Vetcoach Shah regime was't perfect either, but my best description is that people were fooled by the communism and islamic propaganda against Shah. Additionally, the new generations are sick of islam and every religion, they hate our fathers who brought islamic republic in this country, and even now, many of these old people regret what they did.
All I'm saying is that the way we think is too far from what our government exhibits to the world. No one got happier when Ghasem Solaymani died than Iranians, and no one gets happier than Iranians when Khamenei dies.
Well said my friend. I wish you and your people the success and freedom you so aspire for

The interview situation with the Minister felt intensely toxic. I wonder how pissed she already was by Isobel's way of wearing the hijab. And the way she let herself fall back onto the backrest of her chair and turned away her eyes after answering made me feel like she wished to kill the VICE team for such straightforward questions. Knowing she would create more of a problem with imprisoning them or worse, she knew she had to bite the bullet and let them go, which pissed her even more. Very brave endeavor, the entire report. The Iranian people deserve to succeed in their efforts to overcome the regime. I hope, those in power today and those 'security' forces, who tortured and killed harmless citizens due to their alternative opinion will be in prison soon. And the political prisoners of today will be free.

Do the media behave professionally when creating an image by standing on one side of the conflict? Editors must be objective and not makeing their own views and opinions. Such nonsense can gain the approval of the majority, not the intelligentsia...
If I had to choose between viral vixens and the morality police, I would 100% choose the rules over prostitution and schizophrenia. In fact, these forces are one of the unfortunately few advantages of the Iranian regime. They try to beat the system, but they attack things that actually work well when there are plenty of really bad facts out there.
You love this "viral" world so much. But only people who can think, know what the meaning of this word is. Mental illnesses do spread virally with such "liberty" movements as viruses do, rapidly. I prefer to live in Iran than in the USA. It's good that here in Poland there are still many people who resist crazy trends. Oh, I forgot "crazy" and "insane" to you it means good, that's how the ill brain works, rewarding psychoses because it is addicted to them, and strong feelings are rewarded better than good ones, it is scientifically prove, thats why psychopats existe.

Her bf is also Iranian and she takes Persian cawk pretty will
The West has tried military intervention and failed. Tried sanctions and failed. Now they are grasping at provoking the population for so called human rights. The goal is the same, to subjugate iran. The West cares so much about hijab huh? Yeah right. Where are your human rights for G.az.a? Forget about hijab, a non-issue if there ever was one. The issue of hijab is chosen because it has many easy tropes to tap into. What you are witnessing is the biggest propaganda effort to divert and dilute your attention from the real oppressors, the West. Why all these anti-Iran pieces now? Because G.az.a has decimated the Western case on being on the moral high ground. Don't fall into propaganda. It is never about human rights or caring for the rights of women, it is about money and influence in the Western sphere. Iran is a huge thorn for the West. It is a country that is firm in its positions and has countless resources and history. Silly Iranians, don't be subjugated by the smallest of issues like hijab.
I hope she will have the honesty and courage to prepare a report on the dictatorships of the Persian Gulf, which are hereditary governments and have good relations with the West, or on the Gaza genocide.
Courage is to challenge the US-led world domination system, like the journalists who were killed by Israel, not to go safely and report and come back and show an oppressed face.
Brings tears to your eyes when you see this level of fearless, investigative journalism with a humanist touch. Hats off to Vice and Isobel who boldly confronted these rigid, narrow-minded, horrible people who supress and torture women in the name of their protection.
from what i see is they are trying to protect their country from American influence which is what every country on the planet needs to do or else end up like ukraine and iraq
Iran is an important and strategic country in the West Asia region. America, Israel and its allies always seek to make Iran insecure so that they can do the same things that happened in Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, Yemen and Palestine in Iran. Of course, there are deceived people in every country, but most people are aware of the threat of enemies and do not play on their ground. We Iranian people have no problem in terms of security and freedom and all people should respect the laws.

The women-led uprising was orchestrated by Komalah and Mojahedin-e-Khalq (MEK), with the assistance of MI6 and Mossad, in an attempt to plunge Iran into chaos once again. The false information that she had been beaten was initially reported on BBC News, VOA Persian, and Saudi-funded Iran International satellite channels. This narrative was propagated by her cousin (on her mother's side), Erfan Mortezaei, a member of Komalah and an operative, who was not even present at the time of her arrest.
Mahsa's brother, who was with her at the moment of her arrest, neither reported nor mentioned anything about any beating. Her parents saw their daughter's body when she was pronounced dead and also stated that there was no evidence of beating. They were the ones who revealed that their daughter had undergone brain surgery, not the Iranian government. After a few days, they changed their narrative following a meeting with her uncle, Safa Aeli (from her mother's side), a Kurdish resident who was neither with Mahsa at the time of her arrest nor saw Mahsa's body. After this meeting, they began appearing on the aforementioned satellite channels and started to protest. It is worth pondering why they changed their minds after the meeting with her uncle.
The video recording of Mahsa's arrest and the CCTV footage of her arrival at the detention center are widely available on the internet. She was neither beaten nor bled from any part of her body. Upon her arrival at the detention center, a female officer instructed her to sit, and she complied by sitting on a chair. After a few moments, she stood up and then fell unconscious.
The fact that Iran arrested two French spies, Cecile Kohler and Jacques Paris, who were attempting to recruit and coach teachers in Iran during the unrest, speaks volumes. A documentary featuring their confessions of espionage was aired on one of Iran's provincial network channels.
Isobel Yeung might wonder why they didn't prevent her from entering the country in the first place. They had her on their radar and waited to see what she was up to. When she waw about to depart, they arrested her and seized her footage. Why did they seize her footage? Because she was attempting to incite chaos, whether knowingly or unknowingly.
Recently, we have seen many RUclipsrs in Iran, filming their travel vlogs, and none of them were stopped. You might wonder why? It's because those RUclipsrs are minding their own business and enjoying their trips, while you are meddling in a country's internal affairs, which in this case were orchestrated and executed by Iran's sworn enemies.
Ibrahim Alizade, the Kurdish communist politician, the official spokesperson of the Komalah Kurdistan's Organization of the Communist Party of Iran (Komalah), and concurrently the first secretary of Komalah, confirmed in an interview on the Saudi-funded Iran International satellite channel, after his statement about the death of Mahsa Amini, that it was their doing. He stated, and I quote the English translation: "If we want these battles to reach a definitive conclusion, we must clearly define these future movements and future political tactics. The fundamental difference that this movement had with other protests that have taken place in Iran in recent years is that this movement was conscious, led, and organized, and its day and time were determined, and its result is also determined."

I am Iranian and I think you are very brave to ask some of those questions and in a no nonsense manner. Islamic Republic is no joke and they take dissidence very seriously. I would say at least 70percent of the population want regime change. It may be as high as 85%

@@BG-qx2st The problem is your face.
No what you’re saying is not true. If 85% of Iranians wanted regime change, the current government would have been overthrown in a matter of days. The truth is majority of Iranians (83%) voted for Sharia. So it’s not going to change for a long time.
This is called true journalism.. thank you for making such great honest report from the inside and asking those questions.. This just shows a tiny tiny bit of what people in Iran have been suffering with daily for the past 40 something years!!
She should show how millions of people in the Middle east are suffering from the Western illegal invasions. She should make a video about the millions of innocent people killed in the middle East after being illegally invaded by the West.. She should make avideo about all the warcrimes the west has committed in the Middle East. Or make a video about how the West is never punished for al the crimes the have committed.
Iraq 1 million dead, Syria 500.000 dead, Afghanistan 250.000 dead, Yemen 350.000 dead. this is just a small list..
Yes, the West is so brave and they care so much about freedom and HUman rights..🤣
Btw The West is also still occupying iraq and stealing their oil..
Why does the West need a safezone in Baghdad? Arent they the good guys? They liberated Iraq right? So why are Westerners not safe in Iraq, why do Iraqis want to kill Westerners? I don't understand, the West are the good guys, right???
@@kaimanyu586what does that have to do with abusing women and not allowing the right to dress as wished?
@@smallpeople172 it shows what a bunch of hypocrites the West are..
This video is made to manipulate people like you into believing that Iran is evil.
They are not like you, the "good guys".
It works doesn't it? Westerners think Iran is evil and believe to be good guys themselves. But based on what evidence? You have nothing to back up this nonsense..
Westerners shouldn't be pointing fingers and lecturing others, they are in no position to do so, they are the worst offenders of Human Rights...
It's not Iran invading other nations and killing millions of people, that's the West! So who are you to lecture anyone?
Why don't you worry more about the mass killings your nation has committed, why do people like you care more about how women are dressed in Iran instead of the warcrimes The West has committed?
You people never talk about how evil you are, but you love to point fingers at others like the hypocrites you are.
Do you not see how hypocritical the West is, are you truly that blind?
Whatever, go live in your fantasy world, we are not blind, we see what you people are doing..
I live in ekbatan and the cafes that you show are shut down over and over due to the fact that they host unveiled customers. In ekbatan many residents don't obey the dress code such as myself. Thank you so much for this brave report it definitely is worth a lot. Love and support ❤
I'm praying for your safety! Greetings from Portland Oregon! Peace be with you!
"Many residents don't obey the dress code such as myself"
Yeah, judging by your name and avatar pic, you're a man. There is no hijab for you so saying you don't observe it is like saying water is wet.
Why not you ladies from there are beautiful. I don't agree with arrange marriage. But classy yet beautiful. What wrong with that?
WHY: The Islamic states need an enemy to justify their brutal treatment of their own people. This why they kill babies. ..
@@donaldnuney6347 Ffs, way to miss the point of ANY of this. Can you understand that it's not all about what you or other men find attractive? Can you understand that women in Iran are in this situation precisely because some men decided that their opinions on what's beautiful and classy in a woman is SOOO important, just like you did right now? It doesn't matter that you draw the line in a different place than those men - you still seem to be looking at women like their main value lies in how well they fit in with your expectations of attractiveness. Support women because they're human beings like yourself. Not because you want to be able to ogle them.

I don't force them to wear it I don't bother them..i just wear what I want as others can wear mini skirt or colorful hair.or tatooes etc...BT I understund if somebody who isnt muslim and is force to wear hijab its not good it shouldn't be! ..same way i dont like situation in France , where muslim girls have to remove scarf when they go to school , christians cant wear cross on the neck. And Sikh people can't wear turban to cover their hair ..it is same bad situation as this one ....
"Not killing people is a moral thing and a moral thing should not be mandatory or binding. If someone doesn't kill someone out of fear, that lack of murder has no value". What sort of logic is that? Mandatory hijab or not is a different question, but that logic is not going to be used anywhere else.

The fundamental difference that this movement had with other protests that have taken place in Iran in recent years is that this movement was conscious, led, and organized, and its day and time were determined, and its result is also determined."
Farsi transcript:
اگر بخواهیم این مبارزات به نتیجه قطعی برسه بایستی این حرکت های آینده و تاکتیک های سیاسی آینده رو بطور مشخص معلوم کنیم. تفاوتی اساسی که این حرکت با بقیه اعتراضاتی که سال های گذشته در سطح ایران داشته اینکه این حرکت آگاهانه، رهبری شده، و سازمان داده شده بوده، و روز و ساعتش معین بوده و نتیجه اش هم معین هست.
@@Pain-And-Gain i like how in each of these comments, you never post a single verifiable source lol.
Fake news
Unfortunately nothing has changed since the protest but things got worse :
1-The chances to leave the country has been more limited , even next to less than %1.
2-Other countries didn't help us and stricted their laws for iranians, which is respectful but painful at the same time.
It's like god abandoned us, it is a curse to be born in such a country.
My heart goes out to all the bright young people of Iran. I hope that change comes soon.
Sending my love from Israel, stay strong !
They choose eeslam don't feel bad for them.
Half of Iranians still have that old eastern souls which were known for wisdom and culture
@@GAMINGBLAZE Not exactly. The neo-Ba'al Moon God voodoo cult was forced upon them by Umar ibn al-Khattab, Khalid ibn al-Walid, Sa'd ibn Abi Waqqas and other Submitters-and-Grovelers of Muhammud (Peace Be Upon Him).
Very one-sided propaganda of American trends. They didn't even try to explain the government side for 1 second. Do the media behave professionally when creating an image by standing on one side of the conflict? Editors must be objective and not makeing their own views and opinions. Such nonsense can gain the approval of the majority, not the intelligentsia...
If I had to choose between viral vixens and the morality police, I would 100% choose the rules over prostitution and schizophrenia. In fact, these forces are one of the unfortunately few advantages of the Iranian regime. They try to beat the system, but they attack things that actually work well when there are plenty of really bad facts out there.
You love this "viral" world so much. But only people who can think, know what the meaning of this word is. Mental illnesses do spread virally with such "liberty" movements as viruses do, rapidly. I prefer to live in Iran than in the USA. It's good that here in Poland there are still many people who resist crazy trends. Oh, I forgot "crazy" and "insane" to you it means good, that's how the ill brain works, rewarding psychoses because it is addicted to them, and strong feelings are rewarded better than good ones, it is scientifically prove, thats why psychopats existe.
Well, they are under Islamic control. Not everyone in Iran is a muslim, so I'm sure they don't all want this.@@GAMINGBLAZE
Very brave of you to have asked those question so directly and debated the topic so openly. Truly Admirable.
The minister of women’s affairs is a perfect example of internal misogyny. Hatred of women by women is by far the most painful type I have ever experienced. And that woman is also cunning so those women are truly in trouble. 💔
She’s right. Women in the west are awful.
The look on her face said it all.. The T in islam stands for tolerance...
@@BootVluchteling tell me, are you not sickened by the way women in the west behave? I mean the only industry that a woman makes more than a man in the west is in the “porn” industry. I as a woman is disgusted, I don’t know about you. Is this equality? Is this freedom to you that only in filth and sex industry a woman can put earn a man. If Iran has strict code of ethics for women is a reason.
@@BootVluchtelingTwelver Shiism is not Islam.
She doesn't even believe in her own words! ,her 3 sons and one daughter are currently living in United States,freely with the money she is sending to them!!
Ironically her oldest son also owns a vpn company and sells proxies for people in Iran.
When a religion makes you terrified,then it’s not a true religion!!!Bless the people of Iran standing against it !!!❤
Just fyi Iran made their own bs religion it has nothing to do with Islam I lived in an Islamic country (in the Arabian gulf) and it was good and better then America and this is coming from a gal hijab is not supposed to be forced nor is the religion Iran is following their own religion
As one who lived and worked in Iran in the 1970's, it looks as though things have become worse, not better. "Morality Police" can be anywhere, even in small villages. Whether they are young or older, male or female, they can cause a lot of trouble. They thought getting rid of the Shah would make things better for everyone...it only made things worse.
Wow
During The Shah of Iran Iranian are better off with freedom...
@@AngelitoLadoresLadores they weren't lol
Under the Shah, people lived in complete poverty with people living in tent and tiny villages outside of the palaces. Wtf are you talking about? Life is objectively better post Shah
Erm that was when Iran was ruled by a proxy king installed by the CIA, who would funnel off the country's wealth to private companies.
Standard of living is way better in Iran now, but so long as it's perceived to be worse than America and Israel, the people will rebel.
