The defendant, only identified by his first name Vahid, was convicted of deliberately pouring acid on the face of another individual by the name of Gholam-Hossein while he worked as a labourer in Tehran when he was 16 years old,...

That's it! I am now convinced that these heinous acts can only become a memory of history if the UN gets involved and ban's the ownership of weapons.

The truth is now much easier to see that these act's of human degradation can only be stifled if guns are banned. /s

Islam, The Alleged Religion of Peace® ( TARP™ )? Click this picture:

No, I am not exaggerating. Click the pic, go to "last," and read backwards.
If you are not informed about this stuff, you will be made sick. If you are informed, you will be made mad, all over again.

'necks go back to DU

you're not welcome in any civilized gathering of republicans and your infiltration of FR is a transparent sabotage of its credibility and worth

[Graybeard58]

Did your reply #43 get cut in half accidently? Who was it addressed to?

Iranians are not Arabs.

[MikefromOhio]

It is, but don't say that too loudly on FR....

I doubt we have much to worry about with Iran getting the A -Bomb.

Iran is our enemy. YOU must ALWAYS worry about an enemy getting stronger, no matter how remote.

[Allegra]

Yes, I have heard about all of that as well as other barbaric customs in place.

I've been living and working in the Middle East for about a year and a half now, and believe me, where I am, I hear a lot about Iran....none of it good or positive.

The course was intended to last three months. One year later, not one student had passed.

A friend of his sold a huge computer system to a major Saudi hospital.

Three years later he returned to see how they were doing. They had never tured it on but said they were very happy with the system.

When told it was now outdated, they placed a three million dollar for a new system. It too was never used but impressed visitors.

I doubt we have much to worry about with Iran getting the A -Bomb.

It depends on their motivation... The rulers of Iran are extremely motivated by their hatred of Israel.

I actually do not have a problem with this.

. . . though he maintained throughout the trial that the attack was not intentional and that he had only meant to threaten the man because of an earlier scuffle. He said that the lid of the battery which the acid was in accidentally opened . . .

Well, heck, he denies meaning to blind the other guy with the acid, why should he have to pay for the crime? /sarcasm
