A powerful video statement by The Assembly of Scientific Associations of Sharif University of Technology:

"You didn't hear our cries, fear our silence." #Iran

The public opinion in Iran is strongly affected by such a media like BBC Persian and, Iran International Persian. They portray Iran's civil society broken under supreme authority and, trying to persuade Iranians that their problems can only be solved by outsiders.

Iran is surrounded by many threats.
The Islamic Republic regime, foreign adversarial states, radical opposition groups, and — most effectively — politically oriented Persian-language foreign media:
Iran International, Manoto, VOA Persian, and BBC Persian.

I’m alive. Many others in Iran are not.
Three weeks ago, Iran went through massive carnage.
I’ve just regained internet access and have a lot to share.
Not the media, but the stories.

People don't need professional sports.
Governments must focus on grassroots sports and social activities.
And the whole entertainment industry, too

As a sociologist, understanding is my priority.
I may explain why even the worst groups think or act as they do, but that doesn’t mean I respect them. Politicians may choose to confront them — that’s their role. Mine is different: to understand.

I don’t hate the West. I admire its civil institutions — there are many things they can be proud of. I’m not against anyone; I just want to be part of the solution.

I fight for Iran — not for the criminal regime, but for its people.
Not with hostility toward other nations.
I refuse to believe that nations must have conflicting interests —
If, and only if, we seek our prosperity in the redemption of the whole.

I support the people of Iran, not the Islamic Republic.
I worry about crimes at home and interference from abroad.
All these conflicts are unnecessary.

Not politics, but social movements.
The solution lies in wisdom, conscience, and coexistence.
I’m with us.
“We” means all of us.
