 Congratulations to Narges Mohammadi on her Nobel Peace Prize.

It recognises the brave and noble fight of Iranian women who defy oppression at their peril.

They inspire women worldwide to stand for their freedom and rights.

We stand with you.  

For Women, Life, Freedom.

 @ffc460e3  Time to definitely ban the fundamentalist religious mysoginists oppression on women that is the abaya and  hijab in the EU, don't you think? In theocracies like Iran and elsewhere women are being tortured, raped, imprisoned and killed for failing to cover their hair and bodies as you well know. What hypocrisy to celebrate a woman's fight and bravery while allowing the same oppression in Europe under "cultural" heritage or whatever...
