Absolutely. The sanctions have impacted citizens of Iran, not just their horrible regime.

I feel that if this unrest does keep increasing until a potential revolution against the dictator there will absolutely be aid from the rest of the world, to help rebuild. Especially from the diaspora (lots of Iranians in Canada, the U.S., etc.) but also just people from everywhere supporting a new, secular Iran. I for one would absolutely donate to help rebuild the country one of my aunts is from.

I doubt many people want to outlaw hijabs, it should be a women's choice to wear one or not. I have muslim friends who wear hijabs and some who don't. It's a personal choice, not something that should be banned. After all, it is but an accessory.

Ironically the regime did improve education some, which helps make people less easily affected by propaganda.

My aunt's mom was a professor in Tehran. Young Iranians, especially in urban regions, are very well educated and connected to the world.

I truly hope you find your children, I can't imagine what going through something like that as a child would be like, but with such a caring parent I am sure they will end up just alright.

Stay strong.

I'm sure of the many well educated Iranians there are some may attempt to form a government.
