Well done @FT

Mahvash’s Sabet’s book “Open Wide The Doors” is out soon. And it is absolutely extraordinary.

Three books are reviewed here in the about “the familiar question of whether the Islamic republic is about to fall by asking why Iranian society has again and again generated movements of defiance against its rulers.”

But the final word goes to the book that “shifts the centre of Iranian history away from rulers and revolutions and towards the people who endure the consequences.

That is why Sabet’s memoir makes such a fitting final word. Against the scale of Iran’s past, her testimony reinforces the power of individual conscience and endurance as the only way forward.”

Couldn’t have said it better myself.

A must read. https://t.co/A96NPSuk7j

This is Samuel Corner, sledgehammer raised, ready to strike the police woman lying at his feet, arm held out in a vain plea for mercy. Samuel Corner is not a martyr nor a "young activist", he's just a common-or-garden thug.

@TomK_Brit1993 No not really

For those suffering from amnesia: a staggering... 2 months ago, the Islamic regime of Iran murdered more than 40,000 people, whose only crime was to protest for freedom.

[Kosher @koshercockney]

No deal with the Islamic Regime.

[London Hebrew @DavidAHoward]

Yes, it's called a criminal record.

Lesson: don’t break the law.

Islam is a big fan of male dominance

@GodlyNations No. I think this is brilliant and I’m in all that someone can achieve this.

[Ada @onlyadabell]

@Kiran62r2 It’s a no from me, I’m afraid!

Actress Juliet Stephenson is outside Woolwich court this morning sticking up for convicted criminals including a man who hit a female police officer with a sledgehammer. These are the ‘be kind’ people. What a nasty joke.

One of the thousands of Iranians who told you - including myself - that the frozen bodies of protesters would be used by the regime for gain. The reality is far worse than imagined and even now the truth being downplayed and spun. Well explained @PersianRednek

[John Cleese @JohnCleese]

I guess this is one of the drawbacks to being a violent criminal

Every single person who still cringes at the memory of trying to bullshit their way through an interview or exam question: today, the slate is wiped clean. Set down your burden of shame. Nothing - nothing, I say - could touch this.

Una reportera sueca viaja a Siria y mujeres y niños le arrojan piedras porque no lleva burka.

Por alguna razón, los progres quieren esto en toda Europa.

@Excellentsalvic Yes 💯

No- we do not want him in our spaces
