ah, the desk of iranian women in custody has now had a ripple effect leading to more violence, threatening the crucial oil industry. it's marking protest across the globe, or international course. roxy to florida is here to tell us how it all started. study these all begun when are you running a woman, massa? i mean, he was arrested for improperly where he job just based after being taken into custody. she died. her family says there were bruce, as all over her body suggests, and she had been beaten to death. however, police are claiming, i mean, he died of a heart attack. this led to under robson of protest throughout the country. workers for iran, oil and natural gas production began practicing over the death of the 22 year old woman that demonstrations mark the 1st time down rest are on the death of masa,

a mini threaten that crucial industry. on september 24th iranian stake, television suggested at least 41 people have been killed in process for me. however, iran, the government has not given an update 40 based after her death house and we're taking processing. i've heard great site celebrations on the 40th they morning as a cultural significance for iranians. they begun saudi heard this then will be the graveyard of faces and woman life. freedom process stores their claim officers fire at least 5 rounds into the crowd dispensing theory. guys this led to a need through national movement, for example, process in germany in france, made me all over london, england. i'm on the streets up to on to canada. and in the united states during the

marine corps marathon in washington, d. c. people began protesting that death. i'm police reaction to massa. i mean is there now there's a turban gain going to run. iran were school age. children are taking videos of themselves wrong in the run. nothing turbans of men industry as a way to protest. i mean, is this one human rights group in iran has estimated 185 people have been killed in iran during the protest? joining us now for more on this is professor at the university of toronto mohammed morality. welcome, doctor mirandi. your doctor and your view were the protest in iran concerning the tragic death of a young woman entirely artificial, or do they hit on some discontent within iranian society? apart from western attempts to stoke regime change?

first, we have to remember that the united states hasn't, has been imposing maximum pressure sanctions on ordinary iranians for years. and they've been doing this to create misery and suffering so that people rise up in desperation. an excuse has been the iranian piece on their program. and the united states in europe is constantly been saying that there is an imminent threat because of iran's nuclear program. but the last few months, negotiations have stopped and no one in the west is screaming or yelling about the dangers of iranian the running nuclear program. what does that tell you? it means that their priorities that shifted, you know, really wasn't a threat. they were trying to focus on the want, put pressure on iran, but now they kind of china. so their focus is elsewhere. so they were lying all along. but in any case, the piece one of their programming a run wasn't an excuse to put pressure on it, because the united states dislikes the song of iran because it's independent.

now in the case of this young woman died, the important thing is that when use came out and she passed, it was western persian languish media based in london. and in the united states that spread the news that she was pattern and tortured to death. and even i thought that there must have been some sort of police brutality involved that she died because they were screaming and yelling about it, day and night. then the footage comes out and it shows her leaving a police fan. she's not hancock, she does shows no sign of pain. she goes into a hall, sit there after a while, talks to someone, and then suddenly collapses. there is no sign of any entreaty. she's not holding her head or anything like that. then there's the autopsy and 19 very senior

positions. check all her documents, the check the body, and they say that she was never physically harmed. you know, it's really interesting because the parallels between what you just described as the timeline of events in iraq almost mimic the a visit time mind of the george ford situation, which happened here in the usa. what was the iranian people actually told about the racial protest in the united states? and by what main media outlet in use in iran was largely, i think, influenced by, ironically by cnn. and probably the new york times more than anyone else. and this is one of the unfortunate things in general that the global south has to really view it. and that is that a lot of our information, not only about the west, but about other parts of the global sound,

comes from major western sources. and of course, therefore, our understanding of, let's say brazil, my understanding and tara, of brazil, when it's influenced by western narratives. then it's based upon an understanding that the, that western needs want to lee you believed whether it's objective or not. so whether it's us internal politics, i think disproportionately american media, mainstream america, media, influential in iran, and even when it's not the united states, when it's other parts of the global south western media, that's an influence that is disproportionate. you know, i have learned that wherever there is a fire, a small spark or smoke has to exist in the beginning. therefore, what do you think is the average iranian woman's view of the public morality loss?

that's a very difficult question to answer because the wrong has a population of roughly 85000000 without a doubt, they're 40000000000 points of view among iranian women. and another 40 son is marlin writing mess according to polls that are regularly count carried out in iran by western institutions and run in institutions. overwhelmingly, iranian women believe in the job because their muslim, smaller majority believe that there must be some sort of dress code for public, but how can it will enforce it? and how far it should go is something that is debated. and then there is a minority,

and i don't recall how large that minority is. that believes that there shouldn't be any real strict enforcement of at their desk. but again, that is subjective what, what is meant. but the point that is important is that iran is in iran use towards women. and the notion of commodification and objectification here are different and the believe not that having a more conservative dress code then you run is to control women, right? that it is to prevent them from being objectified and commodified. now someone may severely do disagree with that perspective. but the point is that the fact is that women in iran or taxi drivers, their bus drivers,

their pilots, helicopter pilots, their university professors, the empties and parliament. one of my colleagues at the university of ron university of ron medical sciences for medical sciences. she was the minister of home under for 4 years if i'm not mistaken. administrative health is the 2nd largest government ministry in the country. probably the most complex because it has medical education university professor students and has health care. it has the hospital network across the country, under his authority to be complex and complicated ministry. it was a woman. so the idea that somehow in iran, i mean my kids, so the radio or taken on or, or somewhere else like that is, it is,

is complete. nonsense. is iran some utopia for women? no, no, no, you talk this over now you toby, us for men and iran is not the abnormal horrific society that the americans, american government, and american leads, or european at least was mike or a people. so how fair is it to compare the past history of iran all to the present under the shar, there was virtually no freedom. and there was a sha who is in control and his family. and he had very negative news towards women . he has a very famous interview where he's actually sitting beside his wife and dismissing women, i think, go with a famous american interviewer women, a woman interview. i don't remember the name, i think one of the 3 major news channels back then. either cbs nbc, abc,

easy to look it up and back then the majority of iranian women actually didn't even go to school after the revolution. we had education, both women, and right now the majority of university students in iran are women. and in my i work in 2 different departments. the last 2 people hire in the american states department. but i work or women. i think the last person we hired in the english department, which i also worked at is, i think because of that. so, but in any case we have, we will, professors, we have, as i said it by a woman, and the status of women in your honor society is far higher than what it was during the shop by any measure. but when

they dress more conservatively, some of them probably don't want definitely don't want to dress in such way in the public sphere and many accepted. but the regulations are not strictly enforced at all. you see women in the north run for a long time, especially in north carolina who don't headstart, but they so where long shot these trousers and they're usually more covered european societies. but it is not at all what the image is not at all like what you would think of if you were reading the new york times the washington post, or watching like fascinating conversation. thank you so much,

dr. miranda for joining us all the way from tehran. now, after the break, we're going to give you another view of the iranian protests, and what the end result could be. stay tuned for more. ah, i ah .

ah every spring and summer, the melting optic snow reveals abandoned machinery millions of rusty barrels and the detritus left by human expansion into this most inaccessible of territories. yet on the move, so take up a summer, but he lowered it supposed to begin as an issue all in tears from clean arctic travel to heis island home to the biggest pony station on the friends joseph land da capella, go daddy asked me, but i lost my bosom more yet as it should. so him is, it's anybody who aimlessly nasa monley and i'm but somebody with a some a stay on the or stuff was similar. he feel like for a mary from a serial number 0 membership, one year of catherine dorm, cyril know, boys of premier ne chico near that of the arctic pioneers main objective was to explore and conquer these harsh lands. they had no time to think about waste

management now and legacy could remain for centuries. my choice of sir william madeline is pretty at the call she system was just going to pull on your scope. i don't believe you could have deal to fisher ah, we're discussing the recent iranian protest. julius, have more on this topic is e, michael jones. he's a widely published author and communicator on social, political, and religious topics. welcome, dr. jones. thank you for joining us. thank you for having me. so let's talk about the protest are happening at this present moment. why are they happening? okay, 1st of all, you've got a situation that has been festering for a long time, which is the crisis over the his job in 2009 the see i got involved in

a ran and try to overthrow the government by using women as their main proxy warriors, that situation hasn't changed, the situation didn't get resolved, then the revolution got squelch, it got put down. but the resentment in charl resentments are, are still there. and they go back all the way to the of the, and or the death of the ayatollah khomeini. in 1989, this is 10 years after the revolution, the revolution effectively ended at that point. ah, but that with his death. but the new supreme leader desire to continue it, which was bad enough, but that he made a really bad decision by introducing birth control into the population of iran. he did this because the birth rate at that point, after the revolution was 78 children, he felt that they couldn't sustain that population. so here to do the birth control

and brought about the biggest drop in fertility history in birth control history. wow. this led to a, basically a demographic collapse. and it also led to the disruption that we're seeing right now the, the supreme leader. apologize, rich in 2010 said it was the biggest mistake he had ever made. and he begged a law for forgiveness, but at this point the genie was out of the bottle and you were created. he, he had created basically, the revolutionary situation that we have right now was interesting that you give the history that this is, you know, obviously president of bite and under the west was also vice president brock obama . he tried this during the administration at trying it again. i do have to one of those. there was always this idea that the west, the got along with the iranian girl, with the iranian nuclear dealer, came out of the roman ministration. obviously, president trump's administration tore that to pieces that it was out the window. it

makes you wonder, does the bite administration actually like this regime? that's an office right now. and if they don't, who do they think would replace it if they are successful and over throwing? i will they with this is the, the playbook began in iran in 1953 the playbook, meaning the c i a's plan for overthrowing governments throughout the world. it came to be known as color revolution, sax, what it was in 2000 i but in 1953 the united states over through the most or dag administration and put the shy and into place. so the shaw range for about 29 years . he brought about a policy, a westernization, that created repugnance among the islamic population, and then the ayatollah came, came in and replaced it with an islamic republic. so the problem here is that iran is a constant pendulum swing between westernization as or where they bring in the shaw to islamic reaction, which is when the ayatollah shows up. so given that history,

obviously, the next example is going to be bad. the pendulum will swing back to westernization, and this is what the cia is counting on and they're, they think it's gone. they think it's going to work. well, it's interesting because all on top of that is the environment of iran being when the a sanctioned countries and the world did, they've been doing that to kind of trap the pressure on the people on the government to fill the sanctions effect. the leadership or the common people more at this stage after so many years of being in existence. they always affect the common people more than than the leadership. but the uh, the untold story about sanctions is that they are another word for tariffs and towers. as the united states found out after lay separated from england can be used to protect project manufacturing. so to sanctions, before the iranian people were many ways a blessing in disguise because they promoted the, the rise of

a into industrialization of iran rather than simply living from mel oil revenues. was interesting because now you bring it to where we are in the present. once again, this is straight out of playbook from 2009, using women's rights i say using which there still might be a justification for it to kind of garner this unrest. so what are the main goals of this current protest? what do they hoping to accomplish? this protest went from simply being a protest against a job. in other words, alexa, let's make they're wearing that his job voluntary. that's how it started out and then escalated into basically an attempt to overthrow the government. that's what it is. now they are saying that the islamic republic has to go. we can no longer have in his lomberg republic. that is, i think part of the contribution that the c i is making here behind the scenes was the, was a protest get big. they reach a certain point that the,

the cia and these people, they're going to go for the whole thing. they're going to overthrow the government that has called wars the draconian reaction on the part of the government they per, they correctly perceive it as an attempt to overthrow the government. and now they're just coming, attacking the people gunning the people down in the streets in a way that is going to be counter productive. what i find interesting is their job is a part of the religious aspect of their faith, of the muslim play. some go with a somewhat don't, it's not necessarily a government mandate is in a government that just says you, you have to wear you down. they said they're taking a religious issue and using it to try to cause change within the government. can that actually happen though? with how the current government is in the leadership and control, are they going to have give any on this issue? they cannot. they cannot because it's been weaponized into an attack on the government. so the government is backed into a corner and out they cannot back down or they have job issue it because it's an

existential issue. right now it's not just clothing, it's an existential issue about the future of the islamic republic. so my feeling is that at a moment of crisis like this, the only solution is for the ayatollah the, for the supreme leader to abdicate. it's gotta be something that radical. i think that they should bring president oc medina. job back into power. he's a strong leader, he's a persian nationalist. he resonates with the entire spectrum of persian to islamic . and he should come in and say, ok, the revolution is over. it should have ended and 80 died. it's over now. we're going to have a new constitution. we're going to have a new republic, but we are going to save the persian people from this cia attack that is absolutely non negotiable. we will not allow the cia to take over our government and destroy our culture, which is what their intent is. we're going to take control of our own destiny and

we're going to do it step by step away into a new republic, a new era which will not be as lama republic. did he keep mentioning? obviously this is from the outside, the ca, what i fell 54 as do you think the women that are in the streets and we are seeing obviously some clashes that are happening, some of them not ending so well that in their grass roots do they do you think that these women realize that they potentially could be just basically being tools for a bigger picture that has nothing to do with women's rights, the place of women and iranian society? yes. look, we're, if you're talking about the women who are taking off the job, that's all the one segment of the population. there is a large segment of the population who are still wearing the job there approached i think that doesn't make the news over here. ok there, protesting, i think from my conversations with the rainy, as i know, they want to preserve the independence of iran. they don't want they're,

they're unhappy with both sides. they understand that they're being faced with a choice of either anarchy or tyranny. and they're both bad choices. i have a friend who just told me says there's a saying and varsity now i hope it's not too crude for. i have to tell it what it is, but it says i've got a saw my ass and it hurts. going in and it's kurt coming out. that's the, that's the dilemma that these people are faced with right now. they're constantly being confronted by 2 equally repugnant alternatives. and they're having difficulty finding the mean, the middle ground that would allow the unification of the country. well, it's very interesting on that side of it and ultimately i, it, this isn't going to be anything that in any time soon, you know, i just have to be a one last question before we go. and my produce was wonderful. she was kind of commenting on your interview as you are giving it a. do you think that in the end, the turbans right now have been the new way for the men to be able to actually act

out for the men to kind of get involved in this. and you've got kids doing it, but they're, you know, like i said, it is all ages, teenagers, kids, all of them. do you think that's going to have an effect with this idea of now knocking off people's turbans at the religious sector as they're walking down the street just out in public? that's an expansion. that's an escalation of the revolutionary movement. it shows that the, the contempt that they have for the leadership, it shows also that there's contempt for the religious authority. there were local religious authority. the religious leaders have overplay their hand. ok, they've gotten to involved in the political process. the classic example was when they prohibited oct medina job for running for president. they never should have done that. he is a man of the people he might have solve this problem before it got started. so that turbo, again, it's exact. you're right. it's exactly the same thing as taking off the job, but it's a much more aggressive gesture, obviously,

because you're knocking it off of someone else's head. and it's only going to harden the islamic side. the, the molars are going to become now even more determined to resist. when what should happen is that bo shy should now take a deep breath and come together. and let's have a conversation about the future of iran, where everyone can take part. thank you so much for joining us. cafe. assure insight author, accommodate her. dr. e. michael jones. thank you. thank you from me times have changed for various demographics in many societies, and those changes don't often come sadly without chaos. and to see however, you're naive if you don't think of the geo politics of the west are not playing a role. as the timing of these protest happening as new allies are being drawn by the west is not just a coincidence. a different religions and cultures have their own ideologies,

and it is best when they are addressed within their own circles. as observations from the outside can often be receiving. now on the surface, their calls for peace, this would only be accomplish of either the religious regulations were made subjective or there was a regime change. both would have long term effects to a very established body and what happens next would be predictable. as a major changes either to the government or the religion would be guaranteed to follow. no protesters against the regime called the world to show how much it loves women and values freedom. the road has shown time and time again. their actions don't always match the conviction of their words, and when it becomes inconvenient or at the conflict, no longer present opportunities. and at that time it's usually does on the ground who are left all alone. i'm sky, know, hughes, and thank you for watching this addition of 360 view until next time. ah,

i o. in 1884. the german empire began its colonial invasion into namibia from the very start. berlin encouraged the white colonists to settle in south west africa and take away the best land from the local drives. the germans were actively draining natural resources and using the local population as a cheap labor source. this was causing major protests and led to a rebellion. in 19 o 4, the hero and nama tribes rebelled against german colonial rule. kaiser wilhelm, the 2nd was fully determined and ordered to suppress the rebellion with the utmost

severity against the inhabitants of namibia. germany through is 15000 well equipped army. all around the country concentration camps were built. in humane medical experiments over citizens were conducted within the period of 4 years. the germans killed up to 60000 people, among which there were 80 percent of the hero tribe, and 50 percent of the nama tribe. the events in south west africa are called the 1st genocide of the 20th century, and not without reason are compared to the holocaust just 2 decades later after the massacre in namibia hitler's assault unit put on the same brown colonial uniform which push the world into the chasm of the 2nd world war with

for indian tax authorities ready to b. b. c. offices in new delhi and moved by indian over allegations of tax evasion back according to r t sources. iran and china signed an agreement to further expanded bilateral cooperation at a meeting of both nations, leaders in beijing plus today, march 20 years since the un report on the absence of weapons of mass destruction in iraq, which was insufficient to stop us from starting the war actively justified by what your media. one reporter shares, her memories of the events part of my job was to control the media narrative, help control the media narrative that was coming out of iraq.
