I enjoyed meeting with Mahmoud Farahmand, MP from the Conservative Party during my visit to the Norwegian Parliament.
We discussed tangible, new ways to support and empower the people of Iran in their fight for freedom.
I'm thankful he is a voice for Iranians in Norway.
Leaked footage of the massacre of Iranian protesters, filmed on the phone of a suppressive force, shows forces insulting and swearing at the bodies of those killed.
On social media, the video is identified as being from 8 January in Fardis, #Karaj.
🚨Don’t stop talking about Iran.
In Shahabad, known today as Eslamabad-e Gharb, Islamic Republic forces opened fire on protesters, leaving people dead and wounded.
This is what the regime does whenever Iranians dare to raise their voices.
Violence. Bloodshed. Destruction.
The Islamic Republic is obsessed with killing, crushing, and terrorizing its own people. It treats peaceful citizens as enemies and answers demands for freedom with bullets.
And the world should never forget that this is the same Islamic Republic terrorist regime that massacred more than 40,000 Iranians in just two days.
More than 40,000 innocent people.
Every victim has a name. Every family carries a wound. Every act of silence from the international community gives this regime more room to continue its crimes.
The people of Iran are not the criminals.
The regime is.
Schaut euch dieses Video an und hört genau hin.
Das sind Basijis und Revolutionsgardisten, die einen ganzen Berg aus Leichen von getöteten Demonstranten aufgeschichtet haben.
Sie lachen, filmen sich dabei und machen ihre widerlichsten Witze über die Toten.
Das ist die „Islamische Republik“. Das ist ihr wahres Gesicht. #IranMassacre

🚨 DIRECT FROM TEHRAN: "Arm us." The momentum is building.
This man just risked everything to show the world that the Iranian people want to be armed. They are desperate to get this message out, and after the massive response to the video of the woman I posted earlier, more people need to amplify their calls.
I asked for proof from the ground, and he answered by filming this right in the heart of Tehran. Look closely at what he is doing: he is driving down an active highway in broad daylight, holding an illegal sign punishable by death against his steering wheel, right in front of the Milad Tower. He is operating directly under the regime's nose to prove this resistance is real.
For the millions he represents, demanding weapons is no longer a political debate. It is a tactical necessity for survival. Peaceful protest against live ammunition has proven impossible. They aren't asking for foreign boots on the ground. They are asking for the basic means to defend themselves against a systemic slaughter.
He risked his life to bypass the blackouts and deliver this geographical proof. Do not let the regime bury his bravery.
