According to reports from student news agencies, ‘Ras Yek’ has addressed various pressing issues such as stabbings and stone-throwing among students, who are perceived as provocateurs seeking to incite unrest in universities. A notable question arises: Why are these students not chanting slogans like ‘Death to America and Israel’?
The latest satellite image of Lake Urmia showcases significant changes, prompting inquiries to local officials about their promises of cultural development and alternative livelihoods in the watershed area.
The program host, Shayan Donyadideh, reported on recent events at several universities in Tehran, particularly at Sharif University, where students intended to hold a memorial for the victims of recent terrorist attacks. Unfortunately, this peaceful gathering was marred by disruptions from a small group of students.Donyadideh lamented the chaotic scenes at Sharif University, where stone-throwing and stabbings occurred, undermining the intended solemnity of the memorial. He noted that similar gatherings took place at Tehran University, Amir Kabir University, and Shahid Beheshti University, where chants like ‘Return of the Murderous Shah, a vain hope’ echoed among students who vowed to stand against any form of treachery.
In a shocking turn, journalist Seyed Reza Mirjafari criticized the blasphemy against sacred texts, questioning the motives of those issuing statements that seem to rally others to their cause. He drew parallels to the consequences faced by controversial figures like Salman Rushdie, suggesting that inciting hatred against revered texts could lead to severe repercussions.
Mirjafari also remarked on the troubling encouragement of acts against the Quran, indicating that if the Islamic world reacts strongly, individuals like Ali Karimi may find themselves unable to walk freely in public spaces due to the backlash.In a somber reflection journalist Mohammad Hossein Lak noted that after a two- to three-month hiatus universities reopened with many students planning memorial gatherings to honor their fallen compatriots. However these gatherings were disrupted by individuals labeled as ‘student pretenders’ leading to a tragic day marked by violence and disrespect towards the memory of the deceased.
The question remains: Why do these so-called students refrain from chanting anti-American and anti-Israeli slogans? This inquiry continues to resonate amid the ongoing unrest and discontent across the campuses.
