Iranian women: “Support for Israel… is vile and shameful.”

 

Joint statement by Reyhaneh Ansari, Sakineh Parvaneh, Varisheh Moradi and Golrokh Iraee, political prisoners incarcerated in Evin Prison, Tehran

These women, one of whom has been sentenced to death for her participation in the ‘Jin, Jiyan, Azadî’ uprising, denounce Israeli aggression and those who support it, and reiterate that the liberation of the Iranian people can only be achieved through their own struggle, through autonomous social movements. This statement was issued prior to the US military offensive and the bombing of Evin Prison.

The liberation of the Iranian people from the dictatorship that rules the country can only be achieved through the struggle of the masses and autonomous social movements.

Since the Second World War, Israel has served as the de facto military outpost of the United States in the Middle East and embodies the hegemony of the Western superpowers in the region. This domination has resulted in extreme acts of violence in Palestine, Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, Yemen and, most recently, the genocide in Gaza.

None of these countries possessed nuclear weapons or had any serious plans to enrich uranium. Genocide requires no rational justification. Western democracies constantly seek pretexts to mask their acts of barbarism around the world, perpetrated under the guise of the democratic values they claim to defend.

We strongly condemn Israel's aggression against Iran. This war, supported by the United States, has resulted in the massacre of civilians and the destruction of the country's infrastructure.

Furthermore, we condemn their serious crimes throughout the world and in the Middle East. Any support for Israel, or any dependence on its destructive power by any individual, group or political entity, must be unequivocally condemned. Such support is nothing but vile and shameful, no matter how it is presented or justified.

The liberation of the Iranian people from the dictatorship that rules the country can only be achieved through the struggle of the masses and autonomous social movements. It can never be achieved by placing our hopes in foreign powers or aligning ourselves with them. These powers, which have consistently brought exploitation, colonialism, war and massacres to serve their own interests, have brought nothing but destruction and a new form of exploitation to the countries of the region, and will bring us nothing more.
