55% : The slogan is everywhere in every city, town, and hamlet in Iran.
48% : Like the old Bolshevik slogan, "Peace, Land, Bread," that set millions of Russians marching to revolution, "Women, Life, Freedom" has the potential to do the same for Iran.
47% : Take the case of Zeinab Kazemi, who removed her hijab in February at an engineers' gathering in Tehran.
42% : If you look at the last decade and a half in Iran, protesting the regime happened about every year and a half.
42% : You can't know the full story of what's happening in Iran without reading Iranian-American journalist Masih Alinejad's work.

38% : "Your Headscarf" is a powerful tribute to Iranian women defying the clerical fascists in Tehran.
36% : In Iran, the "Women, Life, Freedom" protests may have already attained critical mass and could become a revolt in a flashover event.

36% : She is currently detained in an Iranian jail, and is now on a hunger strike, in protest against the sexual assault she has reportedly endured behind bars.
35% : Ms. Alinejad wrote an article in The Free Press marking the anniversary of Mahsa Amini's death and chronicling the last year of mass protests in Iran.
