Why have Tehran mullahs begun a new round of repression of women?
and imposed the mandatory veil on women, today, one of the most serious political and security predicaments of the mullahs is Iranian women and girls' active refusal to give in to the medieval laws instructing them to wear the veil.
Unable to respond to the needs of a progressive and freedom-loving society that had torn the bondage of a monarchic dictatorship, the new fundamentalist regime in Tehran found the solution for imposing its rule in coercing women to wear the veil and suppressing the entire society thereby.
The solution fit well with the mullahs' misogynist vision and allowed them to conceal their political oppression and savagery in a religious wrap for justification. That is why misogyny and suppression of women are indispensable to the regime's domestic repression and has turned into a pillar of the mullahs' rule, just as important as their policies of warmongering, export of terrorism and acquiring the nuclear bomb.
In the beginning of the 21
st century, however, after almost four decades of excessive restrictions, coercion and discrimination against women, and despite deployment of at least 26 cultural, religious, military, disciplinary, legislative, judicial and executive agencies, the regime's failure to contain Iran's resilient women and girls has turned into a political scandal and security threat. For this reason, the regime finds itself in need of imposing further restrictions and the mullahs' supreme leader
has personally intervened...........http://women.ncr-iran.org/articles/2937-fate-of-iran-rulers-tied-to-women-s-veil-hijab
