The suffering political prisoners endure by staging lengthy hunger strikes exemplifies this resistance.
Our nation’s workers are flogged and teachers are given long prison terms, but they refuse to give up and fight on. Our nation’s young women and men are being arrested and humiliated every day, but they continue to defy the mullahs’ impositions. Mothers are imprisoned and endure a multitude of pressures but they continue to demand justice. The combatants of freedom in Camp Liberty are shelled, and face death by attrition because of hardships and a crippling siege, but they refuse to surrender, symbolizing resistance against the ruling regime. This demonstrates our movement’s endless prowess.
Our nation has arisen to secure its liberty even if it means plucking it from the dragon’s mouth.
