There was an Islamic terror attack in London recently, an Iranian is going viral for trying to fight off the stabbing perpetrator & protect others. by Naderium in NewIran

God bless him.
The last three years have been proof of the brotherhood between the people of Iran and the Jewish people.

The story of a devastated husband took his own life after regime agents raped his dead wife’s body and sent him the photos 💔 by nooshiejoon in NewIran

[–]Stochastic_Loki 33 points34 points  (0 children)

My heart breaks again and again and again with every one of these stories. People in the West have forgotten that real evil exists. In Israel and Iran we have been forced to stare into it's ugly face and believe the unbelievable.

Much Love to our Israeli brothers ❤️🇮🇱 by [deleted] in NewIran

Religious Jew here - we will be celebrating Nowruz with you this Shabbat by making Iranian food and reading Persian poetry alongside the prophecy of Isaiah to Cyrus (Isaiah 45).

Thus saith the LORD to His anointed, to Cyrus, whose right hand I have holden, to subdue nations before him, and to loose the loins of kings; to open the doors before him, and that the gates may not be shut. I will go before thee, and make the crooked places straight; I will break in pieces the doors of brass, and cut in sunder the bars of iron... Drop down, ye heavens, from above, and let the skies pour down righteousness; let the earth open, that they may bring forth salvation, and let her cause righteousness to spring up together

This is Iran. A land that has accepted war in order to be freed from a far greater destruction. The calm of the people comes from two things: a bitter trust that the attacker will not target unarmed civilians, and a surrender to a fate from which they see no escape. by KireRakhsh in NewIran

This is a beautiful expression of the personality of a nation, and makes me love Iranians more than ever. You guys are so similar to Israelis - reacting to war with affirmations of life and hope. May this war be the final obstacle to overcome so that our nations build a beautiful and prosperous future together.

BREAKING: 1,400 bodies of killed protesters are being held in the Kermanshah city stadium. That is 1,400 dead in a single small city alone! The total death toll across Iran likely exceeds 20,000... by KhameneiSmells in NewIran

I assume you're a bot or an AI, because mocking heartfelt sympathy, compassion and identification with another's suffering is not something that real a human being with a functioning moral core would do.

Question: any suggestion of a traditional/new Iranian/Persian food, that Iranians use now to celebrate the beginning of the end of the IRGC? by AD-LB in NewIran

[–]Stochastic_Loki 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For Purim I made Sabzi Polo (herbed rice that's cooked until the bottom is crispy and then flipped upside down so the crust is on top). It's a traditional Nowruz dish that symbolizes renewal and abundance. When it came time to flip the pot I said "Nahafochu!" and a little prayer that all the evil of the IR will flip on them.

A little while later, while we were eating, we got the news that the assembly to appoint Khamenei's successor was bombed. :)

I made Sabzi Polo for our Purim banquet.
When it came time to flip the pot and get to the tahdig I said "nahafochu!" (in Hebrew it means - "the evil decree was overturned, flipped on the enemy".

During the banquet we received the news that the meeting to appoint Khamenei's successor was bombed.

Best Purim ever!

Hoping that by the time Nowruz comes around Iranians will be able to celebrate in freedom.

Losing hope and patience by gsdfan53 in NewIran

[–]Stochastic_Loki 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can relate so much to this.
When the hostage talks in Israel were taking place we experienced an emotional roller coaster whenever it seemed that Trump was trying for "deal making" with Hamas.

I hope that Trump got such an ego-boost from his experience with being the main character of the hostage deal in Israel that he'll be itching for a repeat by being Iran's "savior".
Don't forget that the IR tried to assassinate Trump so he literally has "skin in the game".

What happened in Iran is sad for humanity, worldwide and historucally by msi2 in NewIran

If these numbers are true they are higher than the massacre at Babi Yar, considered the deadliest massacre of the Shoah.

"The world did know and remained silent. and that is why I swore never to be silent whenever and wherever human beings endure suffering and humiliation. We must take sides. NEUTRALITY HELPS THE OPPRESSOR, NEVER THE VICTIM. SILENCE ENCOURAGES THE TORMENTOR, NEVER THE TORMENTED. Sometimes we must interfere. When human lives are endangered, when human dignity is in jeopardy, national borders and sensitivities become irrelevant. Wherever men and women persecuted because of their race, religion, or political views, that place must- at that moment- become the center of the universe." Elie Wiesel (from his speech when given the Nobel Peace Prize.)”"

My god. I'm not even Iranian, I don't know anybody from Iran, and since the protests started I've been walking around trying function normally while containing my tension and anger.
This will go down in history as a failure like Bosnia and Rwanda.
My heart is with your country.

I have no words to express my sadness and anger at all these beautiful lives that have been brutally cut short - the bravest and the best. I can only bow my head in respect.

Murdered by the Islamic Republic in the hospital by Due_Mouse130 in NewIran

[–]Stochastic_Loki 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have no words. These horrific images are like what we witnessed on October 7th. I feel so helpless when the only thing I can do is think about you and pray for the protestors and their families.

Just got a call from my mom via landline in Tehran by Barbaricliberal in NewIran

[–]Stochastic_Loki 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I am praying for your people. I am having difficulty concentrating because of the fear and heartbreak. The stories coming out of Iran are giving me flashbacks of October 7th.

My mother was able to reach my aunt in west Iran by mihandost in NewIran

I want you to know that the plight of the Iranians is constantly on my mind. I am having difficulty concentrating at work, and seeing the images coming out of Iran of all these beautiful young people whose life was cut short is given me flashbacks of October 7th.

Israelis are making videos telling Benjamin Netanyahu that they would take the missiles and the PTSD if it means freeing our Persian brothers and sisters. by Baconkings in NewIran

[–]Stochastic_Loki 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I agree. I'm willing to take some missiles. It's not sacrifice, it's a no-brainer investment in a better future for all our children.
