Knowledge as a separate topic, maybe a line or two in Politics of Khuzistan page, but certainly not a separate topic which warrants a new article. Six years later, there are hardly any academic sources that discuss this event in retrospective, that shows that it is not a notable event to have its own page on Knowledge. Not every riot that happens in the world, has its own article on Knowledge. At last, but not the least, this is third time in a few weeks that you have just happened to pop up on a page that I have just edited, all unrelated topics. This is getting a bit creepy and starting to look more and more like stalking.
48:. The subject seems to have received coverage from multiple reliable sources, several of the arguments to delete seem to object to the name. "Unrest" does not strike me as a particularly loaded term but there may be a more suitable term for these events and it may be appropriate to merge this content into another article. Those possibilities can and should be discussed on the article's talk page.
226:: Beside the reasons the two users correctly mentioned, the article strongly suffers from its references. Kurdistan democratic party and National Council of Resistance references (the latter is related to the Mujahedin which is considered a terroristic group by most countries) are obviously non-neutral.--

First of all, none of those old news items speak of "Ahwaz unrest" or "Ahawzi intifada" or similar loaded terminologies that the creator of the page has been using, so there goes the title of the page out of the window. Secondly, a random news event in the past maybe notable for WikiNews, but not
207:: The event was not such notable. The current article is trying to present the event much much more important and notable than what it really is. There is no need of having a separate article for this. It can be just mentioned in brief in other related articles. --
245:: This article would not have been created if it failed NOTABILITY. According to WP:NOTABLE, "An event that is a precedent or catalyst for something else of lasting significance is likely to be notable". If we relate to 2005-2006
