The Iran’s Football team won billions of hearts across the world as the members showed their solidarity with the women’s cause back home by keeping silent as their national anthem was being played at the FIFA world cup. Their silence was a reminder to the world to the women’s plight in Iran under the ultra right government. Probably, this would also nag people’s brains to the women in Afghanistan who are asked not to attend a school and follow the Sharia laws. Their protests have fallen on deaf ears of a misogyny regime. The failure of the United Nations in acting against regimes that suppress do something to the Khomeins and Talibans who had kept women under leash and dictated them what to wear and what not, Women constitute one half of the 8 billion people on earth, Who will defend their rights? Iran’s men playing football were also questioning the silence of world powers in getting women their legitimate rights.
