Beck: If fanatics do not agree on the values of race or the will of the leader, the conflict can only be resolved by war

Boris Beck discusses the implications of fanaticism and societal conflict through the lens of historical and contemporary events in Iran.

In his piece for Večernji list, Boris Beck recounts a personal story about his Armenian friend who faced the harsh realities of revolutionary Iran during the summer of 1981. She took extreme measures to avoid confrontation with the moral police by altering her appearance and disposing of anything that might attract attention. The tragic fate of Jina Amini, a 22-year-old Kurdish woman who was arrested for her hijab, highlights how fanaticism affects innocent lives, leading to widespread protests and significant loss of life among demonstrators. Beck asserts that fanaticism drives individuals to impose their beliefs through coercive means, which can result in severe consequences.
