Iranian women threw off the hijab - what happened next?

Masih, who has lived in self-imposed exile in the US since 2009, cannot travel safely to Iran for fear of arrest. Her parents are forbidden from leaving the country and her father has stopped speaking to her. Masih says that he has been brainwashed by government agents.
Death threats are a daily occurrence for Masih.
She says she recently got a message on Facebook from a well-known Basiji - a member of a pro-government volunteer militia - that said: "I'm going to butcher you... We are going to chop your body and send it to your family."

The reaction from the government has been severe.
Since December 2017, more than 35 female protesters have been arrested in the capital Tehran alone. The police have warned that women who participate in demonstrations against the hijab could face up to 10 years in prison.

but it’s not their fault

Their country had a coup d'etat in 1953, didn’t they elph

I think you’re clutching at straws. My post above lays it out on the real about American ****ery with Iran.
