Tehran, 21 Nov. (AKI) – Iranian police responsible for moral crimes have announced death sentences for 50 people in the latest clampdown on what the authorities term as "immoral behaviour".
"Fifty of the 3,400 people arrested for immorality in recent weeks, have been condemned to death," said General Ahmad Roozbahani, who is in-charge of moral crimes.
While announcing that arrests would continue, the Iranian general said that 53 percent of those arrested were aged between 17 and 25 years.
He said 5 percent of those arrested in the moralisation campaign, which began in March, were minors under the age of 17.
Gaybombs are going off in Iran.
Convenient way to get rid of political enemies.
Sex and the Shia
Sucks to be them.
Is there a Persian translation for “compassion”? Not likely.
Almanenanutjob should’ve been assassinated when he was over here.
AcneGenocide said there weren’t any gays in Iran? Are the importing them from San Francisco or Amsterdam?
You won’t hear a peep out of the liberal establishment about it. After all, just like only white people can be racist, only the US & Israel can violate human rights.
Uh, what EXACTLY did they do? Kareoke drunk to a britney spears song?
What?
Homosexuals should not be persecuted, anywhere, anytime.
Now, where is GLTG Coalition, and other Gay groups in the US, including “Queer Nation”, on this?
Calling Commie Leslie Cagan (UP&J). singer Holly Near (a Hanoinik), and Rosie O’Donnell!!!
But remember, Ron Paul says the Islamofascists are really nice people who are just irritated with us for “invading” their turf with our “interventionist” foreign policy. We should leave them alone except to trade with them and everything will be alright. They won’t bother us as long as we have a nuclear sub or two.
Here they sentence the offspring of those who are immoral to death.
Why hasn’t the US government been supporting an uprising for the past six years? There’s no excuse for this.
You don’t think we have?
Probably a quick and painless death is about as close as you’re gonna get to compassion with these people.
Well, where the hell is it?
Why would you think we have not?
If we did, which would be covertly done, why would it be public knowledge ?
***Here they sentence the offspring of those who are immoral to death.***
Yes, they do. Thanks for saying it.
