Iranian Justice: The stoning of Soraya M
DC Examiner ^ | Michelle Bernard

Posted on 06/18/2009 9:52:42 AM PDT by Def Conservative

Those who want to know the truth about Iranian justice must see Cyrus Nowrasteh’s gripping feature documentary film “The Stoning of Soraya M.”

The film - based on the book written by Friedounce Sahebjam and debuting today at the Toronto International Film Festival - depicts the true life story of Soraya M, an Iranian woman falsely accused of adultery.

She was then sentenced to death by stoning so that her husband would be free to marry a 14-year old. Partially buried in the ground, she was savagely stoned to death by a mob of men that included her own father, husband, and two of her sons

We live in a very dangerous time. I’m throughly convinced that beforew I leave this earth we will probably be seeing this starting to happen in this country. With the liberals insisting that we be so diverse that we leave out own culture behind it is only a matter of time. The funny part will be when they finally realize they will be the first subjected to stonings.

“...stoned to death by a mob of men that included her own father, husband, and two of her sons...”

Her father. Her husband. Two of her own children.

There is NOTHING good about Islam. NOTHING.

Now let us see how liberal hollywood take this movie and how many people actual will go to see this movie. Maybe with what is going on in Iran is the best thing to happen for this movie to be seen. It is a shame that Obama is? Can’t say it.

No matter what she might have done, no loving father could ever do this to his own child, nor could any loving son ever do this to his own mother.

This so called "religion" truly must be a cult of Satan!

Why is it so difficult to understand that women are considered property?

She was put down with less compassion than lib-tards would give to a dog, and yet they support this religion with out question, under the guise of diversity.

I think I just threw up a little in my mouth.

Thank the founders for the Second Amendment.

"Partially buried in the ground, she was savagely stoned to death by a mob of men that included her own father, husband, and two of her sons."

There is nothing just under Sharia Law. Women are considered cattle under the law and good only as sex slaves. Iran is a iron dictatorship of corrupt Mullahs.

Obama is too twisted, too corrupt and too stupid to see the truth.

Recently, I watched another sad movie called “Osama”, released in 2004, about Afghanistan under the Taliban. It’s about a young Afghan girl whose mother must disguise her as a boy living under the Taliban, in case anyone is looking for other movies that expose the horrors of Islamic law.

Reading some of those comments under the video... They’re defending Islam, and comparing stoning to executions in the U.S. Frightening how many people just aren’t able to tell between right and wrong.

Most of the public is brain dead. That is why they are called 'sheeple.' Average IQ is alleged to be about 100. Frankly, I believe it is more like 90. Many who graduate from high school today cannot even read at the 8th grade level.

When my grandfather graduated from that level in 1916 the schools had very hard tests. Most high school graduates would flunk those tests today. Our schools are a joke. Russians graduating from high school often speak fluent English as well as passable German and French. Europeans math and science skills typically exceed those of our best students.

Our entire educational system is broken or in disrepair. As is the infrastructure of our cities, states and nation. Welcome to America as a Third World Nation. All part of the New World Order where oligarchs rule the economy and worship a demonic idol just for laughs . . .

It’s a pity, so many Americans have been brainwashed into being anti-American.

About that link you posted in your last message above... I’ve never heard about that organization before.

I'll go farther than that. Islam is the 'beast' described in the book of Revelation and the false prophet is no other than Muhammed himself. The antichrist will be the Madhi...the leader of the coming Caliphate, that all the islamic clerics are talking about. Who else does not honor women, beheads the saints, honors a god of war and blasphemes the real God by denying Jesus as the Christ. Islam is the true spirit of antichrist. When they announce that the madhi has arrived... get ready for a really rough ride.
