00:00:00.000Hi, everyone. So, you know, contrary to what you guys might think, it actually does take me a little bit of time to come up with my, you know, Iranian here video clips, because, you know, it is a bit of a challenge to try and take a topic that might be complicated or convoluted or nuanced and not only explain it in less than a minute, but also, you know, make it clear and concise and factual.
00:00:29.500and to provide enough context so people who know nothing about the Middle East can understand.
00:00:36.540And then once in a while, you know, I come across a headline or news or information about occupied
00:00:42.500Iran, which to me as an Iranian and to, you know, the 80 million other Iranians who are dealing with
00:00:48.380this Islamic dictatorship, it's, you know, it's par for the course, right? Like it's something
00:00:54.880that we're used to, right? Like the utter insanity of the Islamic regime, we're just used to it,
00:01:00.980right? It's just part of our intergenerational trauma that we have as Iranians, you know,
00:01:05.700dealing with this Islamic dictatorship. But then when I think about it, right, like I put on my
00:01:11.800non-Iranian hat, because one of the ways I try to explain things to non-Iranians is by, you know,
00:01:18.280putting myself in in your shoes um when i put myself in your shoes for this one
00:01:24.680like it's just it's mind-boggling it's insane the utter insanity
00:01:31.720leaves me with no words um here's here's the headline here's the headline let me just show
00:01:40.220you guys. Islamic regime cleric blames hijab enforcement failure for the water shortage
00:01:53.320crisis in Iran. That's not a joke, guys. That's not a parody. The Islamic Republic is literally
00:02:01.420saying that Allah is punishing Iranians with a water shortage because Iranian women are showing
00:02:09.020their hair do you see the utter insanity that we're dealing with like how do i even how do i
00:02:16.860even begin to explain that in 30 seconds like what do i even say how do i even um explain that and
00:02:24.620then how do i even like and then when we iranians we try to like explain to you guys
00:02:38.960how like backwards and seventh century and misogynistic the islamic republic is and sharia
00:02:45.080law is like you know barbaric and medieval like we're accused of being islamophobic right like
00:02:50.500it's utter nonsense do you see the insanity that we are dealing with the the islamic regime right
00:02:57.060like their weird seventh century backwards inbred medieval neanderthalic sharia law is blaming my
00:03:05.800hair showing for the water crisis shortage in iran and yet somehow i'm the one that's islamophobic
00:03:14.280this is the gaslighting that we iranians have been dealing with for the last 47 years
00:03:21.640right no one ever talks about how insane the islamic republic is no one ever talks about
00:03:26.280the fact that these ayatollahs are literally murdering us in the name of allah and islam
00:03:30.360and muhammad that's okay that's fine but yet when we speak up about it we're the ones who are attacked
00:03:35.640we're the ones who are silenced right meanwhile you have these insane people like tucker carlson
00:03:41.520or whoever who are going out there and they're praising the awesomeness of sharia law that's not
00:03:48.560sharia sharia law is when islamic regime clerics blame women for showing their hair right i i've
00:03:55.700i have made allah mad right allah is mad because i'm showing my hair and therefore therefore there's
00:04:02.180a water shortage in Iran right now. This is the utter insanity that we are dealing with.
00:04:07.620Guys, this is why we Iranians are constantly warning you, do not allow Sharia law to take
00:04:13.500over your country. Don't even normalize it. You need to nip it in the bud. Nip it in the bud.
00:04:18.980These people are utterly insane. And if we didn't have the documents or the facts or the evidence
00:04:25.900to prove what we are saying to you no one would believe us i mean if if we didn't have proof that
00:04:32.820that's what these evil demonic clerics are saying in iran you guys wouldn't believe me because it's
00:04:37.560it's insane no rational person would ever assume that there is a government out there that is
00:04:43.300blaming a water shortage crisis on iranian women showing their hair and yet that is the utter
00:04:48.360insanity that we have to deal with. I don't even know how I would fit that into like a 30 second
