Over mij

I am deadset against the regime in Iran. The false promises that they used to come to power and the torture / killing / lying they do to stay in power are in one word horrific. In my opinion all self-respecting governments should break any and all ties to this illigitimate regime!

Too bad

Today, there was a very important meeting @ the university of Delft. There have been speakers from all over the world, including Iran and the subject was " human rights in Iran" and offcourse the fallout of the elections.
For weeks we' ve been planning on going there, to meet kindred souls and maybe even find ppl to organise a demonstration in our hometown as well. Offcourse, when we wanted to leave, our car broke down. I was very very very disappointed, even more because we don't know anyone else who was going. I have tried to get someone to take us, by using twitter and twubs, but no reactions. Now all I can hope for is pictures and stories.

Allready for years I had been following the situation in Iran, but, as most of us, my interest was hightened after the (re) election of Ahmadi Nejad. Unbelievable how they did this.
In a country with over 40 million ppl who cast their vote, they were able to say that AN won after just two hours of closing the voting areas. (Here ibn Holland, with a total population of 16 million, it takes at least a day. So you might wonder how trustworthy their count was. Soon enough we realised, that wouldnt have had to count at all, because (as we knew, but didnt want to believe before) AN HAD to be winner, they allready printed the headlines in the papers.

For my brothers and sisters in Iran, this must have been a black day.
As we know, after the elections widespread demonstrations took place. And they were shattered.
Ever since the elections, I have been thinking about a way to help the ppl there. But HOW?
What can I do, at 5000 km distance? Only show my solidarity. So I did and I will continue doing so untill things have changed in Iran.

This is my first blog, and I havent said much of importance, but I will be back and try again and again and again, as long as it takes. And believe me, every blog I write, will be a little more toxic to the regime.
In the meantime, anyone who wants my help for anything, just send me an email. I can translate things (With help of my husband) or do whatever I am needed to.
Next year I will be in Iran again (insha' allah) and I hope to be able to attend a demonstration or do something else to help the ppl of Iran that are giving their lives and their freedom in a struggle for a free, democratic Iran.

Ey Iran, Azade Iran
