Bei den aktuellen Angriffen auf Multilateralismus (UNO), (humanitäres) Völkerrecht und Grundrechte lohnt es sich wieder mal die Geschichte in Erinnerung zu rufen. Alle diese Institutionen existieren aus einem bestimmten Grund: nämlich um noch mehr Leid zu verhindern.
Zur Verletzung des humanitären Völkerrechts: Die Gründung des IKRK haben wir in Geschichte nur kurz gestreift. Kann mich aber erinnern, dass wir einen Auszug von Henry Dunants "Eine Erinnerung an Solferino" rezipiert haben. Das hinterliess Eindruck.

Iran: An Uprising Besieged from Within and Without
Three Perspectives

https://crimethinc.com/Iran2026

Starting on December 28, 2025, a new wave of protest broke out across Iran, triggered by economic distress and escalating to call for the toppling of the government. This is at least the fifth such movement in a decade, drawing on previous waves of labor unrest and feminist resistance. Yet within this uprising, the grassroots movement contends with reactionary monarchists, largely based outside Iran, who seek to win the backing of the United States and Israel to seize power.

The stakes are high. We owe it to grassroots movements in Iran to learn about them and support them, both because they are confronting a desperate situation and to ensure that a puppet regime serving the United States and Israel cannot come to power.

Here, we present three perspectives on the uprising from Iran and the surrounding region.
