Google translate spits out "I want to be at peace". No clue how accurate that is though.

Getting similar "I want to be a peacemaker"

The text on the red flag in the image is in Persian (Farsi). It reads:" " "Death to Israel"

Thou shalt not lie and all that

It reads something like "I desire to be tranquil" from my fundamentally ****ty understanding of Farsi

The red flag has Persian (Farsi) text on it that reads:
" ."
This translates to:
"I want to be in peace." or "I want to have peace."

Here's a breakdown of the imagery and symbolism on this flag:
1. The Text

• " " = "I want to be in peace."
  This is a direct, human-centered plea. It emphasizes individual desire for peace and security, often used in contexts of protest, social movements, or anti-violence campaigns.

2. The Raised Hand (White Hand on Red Circle)

• A raised hand, especially open-palmed, is a universal stop symbol.
• In Iranian visual culture, the white hand on a red background can also connect to resistance, martyrdom, or protest against oppression. It says "stop" to violence or injustice.

3. The Running Silhouettes

• The black silhouettes of people running across the flag likely symbolize displacement, fleeing danger, or mass protest/march.
• Combined with the text, it suggests that people are being driven into chaos, and their demand is simply peace and safety.

4. The Red Background

• Red is often used in Iranian banners for martyrdom, sacrifice, or urgency.
• It also conveys danger, blood, or warning, reinforcing the message that peace is being denied.

5. The Top-Right Black & White Image

• It's a bit hard to see in detail, but it appears to be a face or facespossibly martyrs, victims, or symbolic figures. Often, Iranian protest flags include stylized portraits.

Given that the silhouettes look like women in skirts, I imagine this is related to the headscarf protests or something along those lines.

Death to Israel in Persian (or Farsi) is (Cannot paste the script) .
Phonetically, morg bar Ees-ra-eel if my two years of college Persian don't fail me.

The Farsi script for "Death to Israel" is .
A phonetic breakdown:
