Status Updates From Fleeing the Hijab: A Jewish...

"A simple plane ride will make all the difference between living in freedom and living in persecution."

In her introduction Sima Goel writes: "In the years since I left, I have watched the situation in Iran go from bad to worse. Contrary to the image that the media has portrayed, I wanted the Western world to know that Iran is a beautiful country, with an ancient and rich culture, and that; at heart, the people are gentle, warm, caring, and are still willing to fight for freedom."

Excellent read! Sima Goel has done a wonderful job of describing her life in Iran. Quote from "Fleeing The Hijab" "To die for a cause would be preferable to a life of this terrifying existence. When someone has a nightmare, she wakes up and realizes it is just a bad dream. But this is a nightmare from which I can never awaken. I am desperate, and there is no hope of change."
