A video went viral Saturday that was posted by an Iranian woman doing the YMCA dance to celebrate President Donald Trump toppling the evil Islamist Iranian regime led by Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. The woman, Sana Ebrahimi, had previously posted that she fled her home country to escape the Islamist regime.
The video has well over 3 million views since being posted Saturday afternoon.
Ebrahimi is a former Muslim who is a PhD candidate at the University of Illinois, Chicago. Ebrahimi has a BS degree from Tehran’s Sharif University of Technology and a Master’s degree from Indiana State University. She left Iran at the age of 23.
In the video, Ebrahimi is seen dancing with a man (presumably her husband) as a video of President Trump and his signature song, YMCA by the Village People plays in the background.
“I am an Iranian and this is the best day of my life. The dictator, the killer, Ali Khamenei is dead.”

Just over two years ago, Ebrahimi posted about her life in Iran:
Tell me about the “Islamophobia”.
Tell that to the 7-year-old me, who was forced to wear this (photo on the right) to school every day since she was 7 years old.
Tell the 8-year-old me that she was about to be molested by an adult man in a very conservative neighborhood on her way to school, and that if she didn’t run fast enough and the school wasn’t close enough, who knows what would happen to her.
Tell me my entire childhood wasn’t taken away from me.
Tell me my adolescence in Iran was not filled with terror.
Tell me I wasn’t oppressed and abused and that I’m just a “Islamophobe.”

A little over a year ago, Ebrahimi posted about why she is a former Muslim:
I was born and raised Muslim. As women, we’re considered half of men. Under Islamic law, we have to obey men if we don’t want to be lashed, beaten, or oppressed. Our fathers hold authority over our lives and, under Sharia, can end our lives if they see us as a threat to Islam or their dignity.
We have no autonomy over our bodies; according to Sharia, our husbands can force themselves on us because that’s considered a wifely duty. We can’t even make basic decisions like choosing what to wear or traveling without permission from a male authority, be it a husband, father, or government enforcing Sharia.
We can be forced into marriage as children under 18 (9-13 yo in Iran). In some Muslim countries, like Iran, we can be forced to marry our rap*ist and are required to carry a pregnancy from ra*pe to term. And, as a former Muslim, I am sentenced to death for leaving Islam.
Happy Islamophobia Awareness Month!

Ebrahimi acknowledged to a critic that she supported Joe Biden in 2020 but saw the light and became a Trump supporter (via translation): “What you’re saying was for the year 2020. In 2024, I got ridiculed a ton here just for supporting Trump…Lol no. I supported him before the election and the last two years of the Biden administration.”
اینی که میگی برای سال ۲۰۲۰ بود. سال ۲۰۲۴ من بخاطر حمایت از ترامپ کلی مسخره شدم همینجا
