00:00:00.000 You know, when people are wondering, okay, are there, you know, Iranians within the system 0.97
00:00:05.380 who have defected or, you know, are defecting, the answer is yes.
00:00:16.520 Authorities of the Islamic Republic regime have reportedly imprisoned a senior female
00:00:23.020 police officer for standing with protesters. Colonel Shahrazad Zamiri. Guys, by the way,
00:00:31.120 the name Shahrazad, if that sounds familiar, that's because you guys know this name as
00:00:38.960 Shahrazad, right? So you know Shahrazad from 1001 Arabian Nights. So it's not actually 1001
00:00:49.280 Arabian nights. It's actually supposed to be a thousand and one Iranian nights. But, you know,
00:00:55.520 the Arabs stole that from us, just like they stole pretty much everything else about our culture. 1.00
00:01:00.240 And Scheherazade, the original, is actually pronounced Shahzad. And as you can see within 1.00
00:01:09.520 the name here, let me make this screen a little bit bigger so you can see it more easily. Let me
00:01:14.340 remove the comments here. So as you can see, the name Shahrazad also has the word shah in it as
00:01:24.180 well. So if the name Shahrazad sounds familiar, that's because it's from, you know, 1001,
00:01:31.060 it should be Iranian knights. And of course, the princess, the princess in that story,
00:01:37.860 her name was Scheherazade, which is actually pronounced Shahzad, which is an Iranian name,
00:01:46.320 by the way. So there you go. And it's actually a pre-Islamic Iranian name, right? So the name
00:01:53.940 Shahzad has nothing to do with Islam or Arabs or anything like that. It's purely an Iranian name.
00:02:03.640 So there you go. Anyways, Colonel Shahzad Zamiri was arrested after being accused of participating
00:02:11.040 in Iran's January 2026 national uprising and helping protesters. No lawyer, no trial. Two
00:02:19.880 months in solitary confinement. No contact with her family. Her personal assets have also reportedly
00:02:27.300 been confiscated. Her case shows that the Islamic Republic fears not only the Iranian people,
00:02:34.420 but also those within its own institutions who refuse to take part in the regime's repression.
00:02:40.720 Okay, so this is Colonel Shahzad Zamiri, and she was arrested after she tried to help
00:02:53.720 protesters on January 8 and 9. And she was held in solitary confinement. So, you know, when people
00:03:03.100 are wondering, okay, are there, you know, Iranians within the system who have defected or, you know, 0.97
00:03:10.240 are defecting, the answer is yes. However, many of them have to remain on the down low, right? Like 1.00
00:03:17.740 they can't say anything openly. Because as you can see, just like, like, she didn't even do
00:03:23.520 anything illegal. She was literally trying to help protesters from from being murdered, right? Like
00:03:29.420 she was trying to prevent young, innocent, unarmed Iranians from being murdered. And the Islamic 1.00
00:03:36.120 regime saw that as a crime. And now she has been held in solitary confinement. And we are just
00:03:44.460 hearing about this now. Guys, you don't understand. There are thousands upon thousands of Iranians
00:03:51.880 who are still missing. And we don't even know what's going on. We don't even know all their
00:03:58.380 names, right? And oftentimes, the reason that we don't know if someone is missing or not is because
00:04:05.660 when the Islamic regime takes someone and, you know, puts them in prison or whatever the case 0.65
00:04:13.100 might be, they will tell their families, you have to be silent. You cannot tell anyone that we have 0.86
00:04:21.440 arrested your family member and we're holding them in prison. If you speak out, we will execute 0.99
00:04:29.340 them, right? So one of the reasons that we don't even know how many people are alive or dead or 0.94
00:04:37.760 missing or whatever the case might be, is because families are basically threatened by the Islamic
00:04:45.200 regime into silence. So we are just today hearing about the story of Colonel Shahzad, Colonel Shahzad
00:04:57.180 Zamiri. And yeah, guys, I mean, keep in mind, like this, this uniform here, this is mandatory,
00:05:06.540 right? Like I guarantee you she probably hates the fact that she has to wear this like Durka 0.71
00:05:13.740 hijab because Iranian policewomen before 1979 didn't actually look like that. Let me show you 0.97
00:05:22.840 what Iranian policewomen looked like and how they dressed before the Muslim Nazis took over in 0.73
00:05:33.720 1979. This is what, this is, this is how Iranian women police officers dress. Now this, this is
00:05:40.640 some sort of like a ceremonial uniform, but obviously you can tell like, they're not wearing
00:05:46.440 hijab. They're not wearing like, like the garbage bag, right? The garbage, like no garbage bags 0.95
00:05:52.400 allowed type of thing, right? Like they basically dressed like any other police force in modern
00:06:01.160 Western countries, right? And this was sort of their, I guess this was their ceremonial
00:06:06.760 uniform. So these are women in the army, women in the artish from, like, this is from 1970. So
00:06:13.780 again, as you can tell, like, no, no hijab, like no durka, no, no, no, you know, garbage bags, 0.98
00:06:21.960 right? So women didn't wear garbage bags. In fact, they were discouraged from wearing garbage bags 1.00
00:06:28.080 over their heads. Everyone was very sharply dressed, pristine, modern. You look at this
00:06:35.460 image of Iranian women in the army from 1970, and this makes you proud. As an Iranian, I look at
00:06:44.000 this, and this makes me proud. I'm like, this is who we were before the Muslim Nazis took over.
00:06:50.620 And of course, unfortunately, after Islam and Sharia law took over, they basically forced 0.98
00:06:57.220 you know, Iranian women to wear garbage bags like this, right? So I do comment a lot on how the,
00:07:05.640 you know, the police in occupied Iran are part of the Islamic regime. And that is 100% true, 1.00
00:07:11.440 guys. Like for the vast majority, the police, the police are basically part of the repression
00:07:18.420 system, the repression apparatus of the Islamic regime. The police aren't there to keep Iranian 0.98
00:07:25.420 people safe. The police are there to protect the Islamic regime. However, of course, there are 1.00
00:07:31.240 many Iranians within the system, within the IRGC system, who are opposed to the Islamic regime
00:07:40.840 and who don't actually want the Islamic regime. But, you know, for one reason or another, right,
00:07:47.420 like, guys, people still have to work. They still have to work. They still have to pay their bills,
00:07:52.240 Right. And so given how terrible the economy is, a lot of people are desperate for government jobs.
00:08:00.560 This is one of the other ways that the Islamic regime keeps the Iranian people, you know, suppressed and oppressed, because if you rely on the government for your paycheck, then you're not going to really rise up against them, at least not publicly. 0.93
00:08:19.900 right? Because if you do, you're literally risking your life. And this is why His Royal 0.94
00:08:26.820 Highness Reza Pahlavi, right? He's made it very clear that anyone who is within the Islamic regime 0.96
00:08:36.120 system, as long as their hands are not covered with the blood of the Iranian people, and as long
00:08:43.920 as they haven't murdered, you know, Iranians, and they're not, you know, they're not guilty
00:08:49.540 of crimes against humanity, they are welcome to defect and to join the Iranian National
00:08:58.760 Lion and Son Revolution. And to date, there are countless, countless tens of thousands 0.91
00:09:06.340 who have defected. We don't have the exact number. I mean, I don't. His Royal Highness
00:09:13.280 and his team they have the exact number of course that exact number is confidential because you know
00:09:20.140 we don't want to give any information away to the islamic regime but we do know that countless tens
00:09:27.720 of thousands have defected but those defections right it has to be kept quiet because if you do
00:09:35.600 anything against the Islamic regime, you will be jailed. And your life could very well be at risk.
00:09:44.040 And that's exactly what's happening to this police officer, Colonel Shahzad Zamiri,
00:09:54.560 Colonel Shahzad Zamiri
00:09:57.260 because she is guilty of trying to prevent 0.96
00:10:02.680 the Islamic regime from murdering innocent unarmed
00:10:06.760 Iranian civilians on January 8th and 9th
00:10:10.240 so basically guys, it's literally the opposite 0.73
00:10:14.400 within the Islamic regime, it's like opposite land 0.61
00:10:18.420 it's like the Islamic hellhole 0.96
00:10:23.480 where it's opposite land. Because only in the Islamic regime can someone be arrested and put 1.00
00:10:33.660 into solitary confinement and tortured for the crime of trying to prevent the Islamic regime 0.84
00:10:44.060 from murdering Iranians, right? Like, it's literally the opposite. She's in jail because 0.59
00:10:49.500 she didn't want to murder Iranians. She's in jail because she tried to stop the murder of innocent 0.97
00:10:58.620 Iranians, right? This is how evil the Islamic regime is. They will reward the terrorists, 1.00
00:11:07.820 the Muslim Nazis who murder Iranians, and they jail the ones who try to save lives, right? 1.00
00:11:15.500 Welcome to the Islamic regime. So there you go. I want to start off with her story because, you know, again, I speak a lot about the Islamic regime, but I also want to, you know, like, guys, everything is nuanced, right? 0.99
00:11:32.060 And I've spoken about the defections before. And this is one prime example of someone who has, you know, defected. And she's paying the ultimate price now. She's paying the price. No lawyer, no trial, two months in solitary confinement, no contact with her family. Her personal assets have also reportedly been confiscated, right?
00:12:00.500 so i mean welcome i don't know what else to say like welcome to the hell 0.98
00:12:04.580 of of being an iranian um within the islamic regime 0.80
