A message from an Iranian in a wheelchair inside Occupied Iran:
"Javid Shah" aka "Long live the Shah"
Iranians are literally risking their lives to say they have overwhelmingly REJECTED the terrorist Islamic Regime occupying Iran.
The world should pay attention.
Free Iran!
Hundreds of protesters gathered outside the Los Angeles stadium ahead of Iran's first match at the FIFA World Cup, waving anti-government signs and flags and chanting slogans against the Islamic Republic of Iran https://t.co/xscbnWWeBY
⚡🇳🇿🦀 🇺🇸⚽️Holy shit, in the middle of this World Cup 2026 match between the terrorist Islamic Republic regime and New Zealand at SoFi Stadium in LA, Mohammad Mohebi pulls off the most disgusting goal celebration you’ve ever seen.
After scoring the second goal, this clown straight-up points finger-guns at Iranian fans waving the Lion and Sun flag — the real flag of Iran. He did it right in front of everyone.
Social media is exploding. People are calling it exactly what it is: a straight-up terrorist threat and provocation against any Iranian who dares to reject the regime. The international media is losing their minds over it too.
This is the ugly face of the Islamic Republic on full display. even on the football pitch they can’t stop acting like terrorist thugs. If you still think these bastards are just another “team,” wake the hell up. They hate freedom, they hate real Iranians, and they’ll show it every single chance they get.
Disgusting.
Thousands of brave Iranian patriots and others are booing the terrorist regime’s anthem at today’s Iran vs New Zealand match.
The IRGC tried to silence us. FIFA tried to silence us. The world tried to silence us. We will never be silent.
Free Iran! Javid Shah!

به گزارش «نیویورکپست»، ایرانیان در جریان اولین بازی تیم فوتبال ایران در جام جهانی ۲۰۲۶ مقابل نیوزیلند در ورزشگاه «سوفای» لسآنجلس، با برافراشتن پرچمهای ملی شیروخورشید نشان، ممنوعیتهای صریح فیفا را به چالش کشیدند. این اقدام در حالی صورت گرفت که فیفا پیشتر در مصوبهای، حمل هرگونه پارچهنوشته، پرچم و پوشاک با ماهیت سیاسی را ممنوع کرده بود و ماموران امنیتی ورزشگاه نیز در بدو ورود از برخی تماشاگران خواسته بودند لباسهای خود را پشتورو کنند. با این حال، جو درون استادیوم کاملا تحت تأثیر این نمادهای ملی ایران قرار گرفت و تعدادی از هواداران هنگام پخش سرود جمهوری اسلامی به نشان اعتراض به زمین مسابقه پشت کردند.
