Thanks. I've explained the inability of Arabs to pronounce "P" sound before.
Iran legalizing Abortions

According to LifeSiteNews.com...
"Iran’s parliament approved a draft bill in July, allowing abortion in the first four months of pregnancy if the mother's life is in danger or if the baby is malformed. The measure still needs final approval."
The very short article, and the only one I could find on this subject also has a very interesting quote from Mehrangiz Morovati, one of the members of parliament.
“The draft of abortion therapy was passed with the official permission from Supreme Leader of Islamic Republic and other religious authorities, so in this respect, it doesn't contradict Quranic spiritual values.”
Very interesting that she called it a "therapy", I wonder if the translator just had bad English, or if she said it in bad english, or if she really did not know what abortion was? It certainly is not "therapy"! Another thing I thought was a bit interesting was that it does not contradict Quranic spiritual values, just because the "Supreme Leader of the Islamic Republic and other religious authorities" give "official permission"?? I didn't know before that the "Supreme Leader of the Islamic Republic" had the right to decide what was, and what was not a "Quranic spiritual value?
