Activist Iranian Mother Of Two To Be Stoned To Death

... and as with so many other religions...

Kinda like all the burning to death and torturing that was done in the name of Christianity back in the time of the inquisition. The Salem witch trials also come to mind.

That was back then, irrelevant........

with all the technology and communications today.......
you'd think that learning about the world would make one less of barbarism.

we are talking about modern times.

Can you name a western country with the same type of regime like that of Iran now?

Wow, the silence is deafening. In my opinion, all the Muslim controlled countries of the middle east are about the same. Some have more money than others (oil), but when you get right down to it, they follow a savage religion where women are second or even third class citizens, Allah put them there to breed, and that's about it.

Because places like the U.S. have a serious immigration problem?

Can these humans even LEAVE their home country?!?!??! NO!

One of my closest friends, who is Iranian (born in Tehran) has been trying to get back INTO her birth country for the last two years to adopt one or two little children. Because she has performed here, in the U.S.A., she risks being arrested as soon as she disembarks from the transcontinental plane. And that's trying to get back INTO the country, damnit... to do a good thing.

Oh, and she doesn't "INSIST on being Muslim," either. She simply is NOT Muslim. Where'd you get the concept that women -- in particular? -- choose to be Muslim? And how do you, therefore, explain the several million women who practice Judaism? And THEY can't leave Iran, EITHER.

true

wasn;t thinking about that, but i wanna seem an army of angry women attacking the government for change in law

They can't... they just can't. They've tried, and many have "disappeared," or at least gone into a prison you'd never want to see even the exterior of, and those lashings are real.

Through my friendship with these three sisters (one of whom is my closest friend [and also an ethical vegan, by the way]), along with their family members and friends, I've learned so much.

If women even managed to organize enough to "attack" their government, they'd be executed on the spot... and yes, with cameras rolling, so the rest of the country's people will know what will happen when there's an uprising.

What about the Muslim women in this country? Muslims have immigrated to europe and now demand their own rules and Sharia law for themselves. This, too is happening on a smaller scale right here in cities with large Muslim populations. It has nothing to do with not being allowed to immigrate. Even when they immigrate they live the same way.

war.

Unfortunately true, Tyrannical Governments do not listen to Reason.

War begets more war. Violence begets violence. Revolution can only ever happens from within. It is up to the Iranians to do something about this, no one else.

lvp, why did you post this now? You are aware of the fact that this beautiful woman has been facing her stoning for quite some months, am I correct? In fact, she very recently was re-sentenced to be lashed 99 times. Many people die from the lashings. Then, AFTER the public lashing, they're still intending to have a public stoning.

It was the first I had heard about her.

It's never too late to spread the word.

She's already suffered her 99 whippings, by the way, poor woman.

That is horrible. The more this is publicized the more people will people will voice their opposition to this horrible manner of punishment.

The more pressure that is put on the communities that do this, the less it will hopefully be done.
