In recent years, women’s rights have become the paramount moral challenge across the globe. The brutality inflicted on so many women worldwide is a dark and indelible stain on civilized societies. But what Iranian women suffer under the misogynous regime ruling that country is unimaginable.<\/p>\n

Women\u2019s rights and their role in society are a yardstick to assess the degree to which a country is democratic or not. Women\u2019s deplorable plight under the mullahs\u2019 regime is a testament to Iran\u2019s appalling general human rights situation.<\/p>\n

Unlike other countries, in Iran, the state encourages, legalizes, and practices misogyny. In its freshest misogynous attempt, the Iranian regime has embarked on a repressive campaign to \u00a0\u201cenjoin virtue and prohibit vice.\u201d<\/p>\n

The regime\u2019s Supreme Security Council adopted this plan, dubbed \u201cchastity and hijab.\u201d in 2005. The mullahs had implemented this oppressive measure for years and had to stop it as they feared intense and widespread public backlash. Since the plan has been adopted, the so-called \u201cguidance patrol\u201d of the regime\u2019s nefarious \u201cmorality police\u201d have arrested and assaulted dozens of Iranian women on the pretext of \u201cmal veiling.\u201d<\/p>\n

On June 26, the deputy prosecutor in Mashhad sent a letter to the governor of this city, demanding that unveiled women be prevented from getting on\u00a0subway trains<\/a>.<\/p>\n

These measures are in addition to the regime\u2019s thugs attacking women with acid, running them over with cars, and pepper spraying them, like the last time some women tried to enter a stadium to watch a soccer match in Mashhad.<\/p>\n

Now, Iran\u2019s misogynous regime has reinstated this law. But why?<\/p>\n
