<p>Iranian dissident activist Masih Alinejad said during an interview over the weekend that she gets her courage to continue to speak out against her home country from the brave people who are still there speaking out about the atrocities that Iran&#8217;s Islamic government has committed.</p>
<p>Alinejad, who has been the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/assassin-with-a-loaded-ak-47-arrested-near-home-of-famous-iranian-dissident-in-nyc-reports">target</a> of assassination attempts by the Iranian government, made the remarks during an interview that aired Sunday on NBC News&#8217; &#8220;Meet The Press&#8221; with Kristen Welker.</p>
<p>She said that it was &#8220;scary&#8221; to be in her shoes because of the threats that she faces as she has round the clock protection from federal law enforcement.</p>
<p>&#8220;But I don&#8217;t want to live in fear, because I know this is the goal of those who are trying to kill us,&#8221; she said. &#8220;These, you know, killers in Iran trying to put the fear inside us and to push us behind the curtain. I&#8217;m not going to let them win. That&#8217;s why. And I learned from my heroes within the country, Iranian women, mothers whose children got killed.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;They hold the picture of their beloved one, they go to the same street that their children got killed, and they say, &#8216;Here we are. We have no fear of you,'&#8221; she continued. &#8220;So, I learn from my true heroes within the country. Even women walking unveiled, showing their beautiful hair is a crime. They walk unveiled,and they show their faces, and they say that, &#8216;You are scared of us not, you know, we, the women of Iran.&#8217; We&#8217;re badass.&#8221;</p>
