On September 16, 2022, a 22-year-old Iranian Kurdish girl named Masha Amini died
three days after her arrest by the morality police in Tehran, for having, itseems, put on her veil incorrectly, and according to this police, infringing thestrict dress code imposed by the Islamic Republic. This caused a wave of popularanger, especially among Iranian youth, with violent clashes with the police. ----This wave of protest against the authoritarianism of the mullahs puts in thisregion of the world, against the wall all the left and the extreme left"theo-compatible" of France, which have been trying for years to ethnicize thesocial question, or marry it with religious claims, with an aftertaste of racismand anti-Semitism. A "special dedication" to all this left which parades with themost reactionary religious fundamentalists... but Muslims, left like LFI, EELV,the third-world nationalists of the PIR, the NPA and all this so-called"deconstructed" left, but completely, beside his push-ups.It's not from yesterdayTo understand all this religious shit in Iran, you have to understand how theIranian and French left have been accomplices, future assassins in power today inIran.We quickly forget that in Iran at the end of the 1970s, the Iranian communistsdid indeed make an alliance with the Shiite fundamentalists. They shared with theIslamists a certain distrust of the West, certainly not necessarily for the samereasons. But these (ex)activists today bitterly regret their support for thosewho, nowadays, relentlessly track down any dissenting opinion. The survivors ofleft-wing organizations, and of TUDEH in particular, which was one of the mostpowerful CPs in the Middle East during this period, and therefore therefore animportant ally for the Shiite religious fascists, these ex-militants are still,today, in exile all over the world; They received support here in France fromleftist intellectuals like Sartre, Foucault, Beauvoir, and others...Indeed, the revolutionary rise in Iran was of great interest to theintelligentsia, particularly the French. Michel Foucault will go twice to Iran asa reporter for the Italian newspaper "Corriere della sera", and will takeadvantage of his stay to closely study the formation of local revolutionarymovements. His fascination for the supposed revolutionary power of Shiism, hisscrewed up concept of "political spirituality" - he considered Shiite Islam to bethe religion of the oppressed (Editor's note: source OBS of 7/02/18, by ÉricAeschimann) -, we recognize there, one of the precursors, of this theo-compatibleleft, rather antiproletarian, very suspicious of social combat, considering thephilosophies "of the Enlightenment" as nonsense (seen and heard by one of theseyoutube chroniclers of "gossip") and so quick to sue for Islamophobia, defending,whether they like it or not, genuinely reactionary political regimes.In the Middle East and generally in a number of countries with a Muslim culturewhere religion is particularly strong, being an atheist, feminist, human rightsactivist, communist or anarchist, revolutionary or not, proves to be particularlydifficult. From time to time we have news of companions, Iranian, Turkish,Afghan... who are in difficult situations, even of survival and whom we supportas best as we can in the face of the dangers of death which await them.Differences between them and usAs anarchosyndicalists and proletarian anarchists, we base ourselves on importantcriteria, which are the social classes, in particular determined by ourprofessional activities in society, and which assign us to a precise place whichis generally the proletariat.The theo-compatible (and post-modern, it goes together) left stems from a more orless muddy and shifting philosophy that almost always embraces concepts that areboth ultra-liberal and conservative, even obscurantist: social class (and alwayssocial class, and women!) is then replaced by emotional feeling, identity,individualism, skin color, religion or what is supposed to be one's religion,gender ( depending on the mood of the moment), his sexuality... From all this conceptual jumble, there emerges support, in the name ofanti-racism, for all sorts of religious garbage, or third-world nationalists,with the understanding that they are not Westerners and "straight whites, etc.. ".It is clear that part of the left and the extreme left, walk hand in hand, withthe most obscurantist religious scum.Thus our leftists, not Islamophobic for two cents, and the slogans emptied oftheir meaning, like their famous "convergence of struggles", make eyes at peoplelike Houria Bouteldja, who claims that among Muslims there is homophobia, butsoft, and that anyway it's the fault of the Europeans who are only settlers (!).I don't know what the term "soft" means to this woman, but when she tries to makeIslamists look like soft lambs, who can take her seriously??? If I remembercorrectly, she was the one who said,"There are no homosexuals in Iran", Ahmadinejad is speaking. This line blew mymind. I frame it and admire it. (...) Ahmadinejad, my hero. (...) Civilization isoutraged. (...) And I exult.»Curious for someone who has this obsession with "white cultural imperialism",everywhere and in all sauces, which would lead to the downfall of the"neocolonial" world. However, I cannot help thinking that the disappearance ofhomosexuals in Iran is more or less similar to the disappearance of Jews livingin the Baltic countries, exterminated by the Nazis during the Second World War.It's true, I forgot, they are anti-Zionists, not anti-Semitic and homophobic, butsoft.http://cntaittoulouse.lautre.net/spip.php?article1299_________________________________________A - I N F O S N E W S S E R V I C EBy, For, and About AnarchistsSend news reports to A-infos-en mailing listA-infos-en@ainfos.ca
