As the world mourns the passing of Marjane Satrapi, I cannot help but reflect on her declining of the French Legion of Honor last year, calling out the hypocrisy of accepting such an award from a government that systematically fails the very Iranian refugees they claim to honor.
Her action stands out even more today, just weeks after France announced a nearly billion euro surge to further militarize Channel border security, a harsh crackdown on the exact routes desperately used by migrants fleeing the Khamenei regime.
Satrapi stood as a beacon of solidarity to those fleeing oppression, and the world is duller today without her in it.

It's being reported that the Iranian women's football team have left Australia with 7 of the squad of 26 having claimed asylum.
The women, some with small children at home, all had to make an impossible decision. The could stay in Australia, with all the repercussions on their families at home in Iran, or go back to their families in Iran and face the consequences.
I know Trump will be disappointed they didn't all stay because now he can't claim the win, but the women couldn't be forced to stay if they didn't give their consent.
This is something Trump has always struggled with.

The latest news from Australia is that so far 5 of the Iranian women's football team have reached out and asked for asylum.
As they are currently with the police there is a chance they may say enough about how their guards have been keeping them virtual hostages for the police to intervene on behalf of the remaining members of the squad.

The Iranian women's football team refused to sing the national anthem in their first match of the Asia Cup in Australia.
In their second match, they sang the anthem and gave military salutes.
What happened between the two matches is painfully obvious.
