Stoning in Iran

Discussion in 'Politics & Religion' started by login, Jul 8, 2007.

  1. #1
    Its reported that there has been a stoning arranged by the iranian government. It was a stoning that was stopped in June because of pressure from foreign countries, but now it looks like the iranian government did it anyway. The "good" news in this is that the local population refused to participate in the stoning so it had to be done by government officials. Maybe there is a hope that it will end some time.

    Death By Stoning is nothing unusual in a Dar-el-Salaam. (indeed, it is simply part of their judicial system).

    What I find interesting are the cracks beginning to show in the Islamic Republic of Iran. It seems that not ALL of their citizens are THAT enthusiastic about their Theocracy. (the recent Petrol riots are a case in point, and even more interesting is the increased... one might almost say desperate... attempts by the 'morality' police to bludgeon (literally) people into accepting correct dress codes in public)

    It would be a bitter blow to the Umma if their most recent geopolitical gain (Iran) turns it's back on Islamic rule.

    We shall see...... not that I care that much. I'm a Cat for gawds sake. As long as my foodbowl is filled regularly, I'm happy and the world can go hang.

    Login, do you happen to have a source for this one? I keep track of these in my bookmarks.

    This is really sad. Was it another female stoned to death for the crime of being raped?

    I don't see how AGS can continue saying he admires Iran and it's government when they do things like this. I suppose it's a reflection of him as a person.

    I dont have source written in english, only from two norwegian news papers. This is just out through a doctor that has contacts in Iran.
    Two persons have been in jail for 11 years for adultery (they have an 11 year kid outside the prison). The woman (of course) was supposedly stoned.

    Why use this post as an attack on me GTech, seriously dude you get worse every day.

    If you recall a couple of weeks ago I made a thread about a US crowd beating a passenger to death, and I did point out that there are evil people from everywhere in the world yet in your utter despiration these days you try and play the Iran card. :rolleyes:

    You're getting desperate these days mate.

    I used your own words. If you feel your support of Iran is an attack on you, you might be a little more careful with what you share with the world. I did not invite you to start a post to inform the world that you admire ahmadinejad. You did so of your own free will.

    Yes, I do recall. You went all out and started a post to show your outrage. But, as exemplified in this post, you don't say a peep. I appreciate you taking time out of your alex jones web site viewing to help me point that out. You couldn't make it any easier for me ;)

    Not a peep.

    Death is death ... either by stoning or by electricity or needle ....

    The ones who watch the penalty with electricity or needle are stoners anyway :D

    I still hold true to my words, especially these:

    Your brain has been so utterly fried by supporting your corrupt terrorist lover Bush and the rest of his PNAC gang that your posts get worse every day.

    You are also overplaying the Alex Jones card too. You need to stop supporting your corrupt Administration GTech.

    A very good point. I was not going to say something about death penalty in general in this thread, those extremists GTech and AGS will easily turn the thread into a death penalty discussion then, but I have to say that I strongly agree with you.

    Thank you for today's lesson in cognitive dissonance.

    See, you were not a victim of GTech (though I do enjoy making you my personal victim), you were a victim of yourself and the voices in your head :D

    Thank you for confirming your support for the biggest state sponsor of terrorism and stonings. I'm overwhelmed.

    I really dislike the iranian government, and feel bad about this newest incident that shows how backwards they are... But the fact that the local population refused to participate is really encouraging.

    Murder is murder. With or without the needle. But the Iranians (SA, Pakistan etc.....) go tooo far with the death penalty (and in the barbaric way they do it) for sins.
