  1. Stop sanctioning Afghanistan. Russia people stop evil sanctions .USA started lots wars hirshoma on japan
    My god only make Iranian authorities more angry let Iran sort out it own problems maybe United nations can help our UNICEF

  2. USA keep their noses out of iran .only make situation worse with Iran authorities. Look.at George floyd death by police..usa stop interfering in other countries. United nations job not the usa

  3. What is strange is that there are daily lots of iranian women hijab-less and with their hair out walking in tehran and there are tons of videos if you search on tehran, etc. Why did they not get arrested by the morality police and this young Kurdish lady was chosen right at a time that US and west has no wining card against Iran nuclear deal? It smells of a per-planned operation? She had perfect hijab and better than the rest. So why chosen for this operation?

  4. MKO terrorists have some 70000 agents inside Iran ready for riots and destabilization order from their bosses in the european nation of Albania with the support of US and the american tax-payers. even top US official like US foreign secretory visited their terrorist camp and gave full US government support to them and their operations inside Iran. Former ISraeli prime minister also has hand in this as he called israel will initiate "operation of a thousand knives" in Iran to cause regime change from within.

  5. The source of this planned Israel and US and saudi orchestrated riots was on 2 “annosi” agents (annosi in Iran means crypto-jew (jews who hide their true identity and take the identity of a hardliner muslim). There are 100s of 1000s of them in Iran and majority reside in the holy city of mashhad under the disguise of a religious muslim on the outside but deeply fateful to jewdiasm inside their home) these 2 annosi agents were 2 severly religious hardliner and creator of the morality police by the name of “Kookshi” and “Motahari”. Infact “Ali Motahari” started the morality police a decade ago and he is an infiltrator agent in the iranian government high up. To the fact that “kookshi” came on tv a few days ago and attacked the people and even called those with bad hijabs or against it “criminals” needed to get punished. He is too powerful and the government can not touch him. Ali Motahari even censored ayatollah khamenie speech and order to let the people be and forget about their hijab. He even indirectly attacked the supreme leader. The ayatollah khamenie did a few speeches and one lately telling the government to allow the women be free and forget about hijab business as its not a priority. He said morality is number 10 on the list and there are 9 items before it that need addressed like economy, currency and things like that. But Motahari and his goons are too powerful and the morality police is here to stay as long as they go free without being punished.

  6. Iranians want regime change. please help them.regime kills every second

  7. irans dictator is worse than hitler kills iranians every second. sham on who supports this criminal regime over money and oil.

  8. Love one another as I have loved you Jesus said. And come follow Me ❤️📖nkjv 🧎‍♂️🙏🙂🕊
    He who does the will of God abides for eternity 1st John 2:17
    Let Jesus live His life in and through you. By knowing and living His Word !!! 🕊

  9. US sure is turning into a immoral Dictator ship thinking it is the ruler of the one order world society. Be glad when Vladimir Nukes us.

  10. The terrorist,murderous and hostage taking regime must be overthrown…..

  11. BIG DEAL sanctions on them will do what exactly? LOL Nothing. How about sanction on the U$ for INVADING Syria? We are STILL STEALING 80% of THEIR OIL TO THIS DAY!!

  12. so one morality police sanctions another. both know not much about morality, that's for sure.

  13. Sanctions don’t do crap! Help Iran

  14. Now we shouldn’t get involved in that it is their country let the Iranians clean up that mess.

  15. Now? Couldn’t they do that 40 years ago. Not like the islamo fascists just took over a month ago!

  16. Let's take a look at Russia and see what those sanctions did…..crickets…………… TRUMP2024

  17. Laughable, this administration is a failure.🤣🤣🤣🤣🖕🏿🖕🏿🖕🏿🖕🏿🖕🏿

  18. LMAO!!! What an empty threat!

  19. Meanwhile they condone the murdering in Ukraine.

  20. No one said anything when Obama sent Iran billions of dollars. What hypocrites.

  21. Lmao! Only months after Biden tried to start his own morality police😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Pedo Peter for prison 2022

  22. Some might say, and I'd be one of them, that the US, having allowed the Supreme (farce of a) Court to sideline women by striking down Roe, have not much moral authority to sanction misogynists anywhere.

  23. Who sanctions US when their police killed their own people? Our sanctions are going to be banana on the floor for you

  24. That’s like complaining to your neighbor that their grass needs cutting, whilst you haven’t cut yours since last summer.

  25. 1 year later:
    EU Sanctions Texas' Morality Police

  26. so they can sanction the Iranian Police for killing a single woman
    but American Police Execute Unarmed Black people daily and they get handed MORE Money?
    Make it Make Sense.

  27. They're not gonna have any real affect. Just like the rest of Biden life.

  28. When will the UN sanction the US for humanitarian crimes under dictator him dumb bi d en.

  29. Are iran’s morality police the same as americas thought police? One wrong pronoun and one can be jailed. Now iran is supposed to be a ‘bad’ country right? How many black MEN have died by the hands of american police? I guess its easier to point the finger at other countries than look in your own backyard. Hatred of males seems to be pretty well accepted in the west. No government outrage over that.

  30. Boe Jiden walking around on the stage lost ay

  31. Iran can borrow Biden's speech writer.

  32. You mean like laws to turn women into breeding animals? Like the US?

  33. We have our own version here .. evangelicals

  34. I will prostitute myself for money….joe biden
