Ignoble Deeds In Iran

Ms Narges Mohammadi, an Iranian human rights activist ......

Ms Narges Mohammadi In Happier Times

  ..... has won the 2023 Nobel Peace Prize. The 51 year old was honoured for her fight against the oppression of women in Iran.

The United Nations and Womens Rights ....

In one of those stories that proves that the world has gone truly insane, the United Nations new super-agency to promote women's rights, is likely to get two members that weren't envisaged when the agency was proposed .......... Iran and Saudi Arabia.

Yes, the peace loving sponsors of Islamic fundamentalism worldwide are to be able to set the agenda and what constitutes a woman's rights around the world ...... women be afraid, be very afraid.

• Iran still sentences women to stoning, or hangs them from the back of open back lorries .....
• Saudi Arabia, sentences women to death for witchcraft.   

Both of them employ religious Mutaween police to whip women in the streets ......



Iranian Religious Police respecting women's rights ...

Ah well, I guess this is what the UN has become these days ..... and the West says nothing.

Another Bunch Of Religious Zealots

While the C of E continues to debate how to finally abandon actual religious dogma, the Iranian Shiites are still enforcing 'old time religion' like the 7th century was only last week.

Yes they are still whipping and stoning women and male adulterers as though it was only yesterday that Allah had commanded them to do so ..... oddly, despite their claim that Jesus is a 'prophet' of Islam, obviously his command that 'only he is without sin should cast the first stone' is is to be completely ignored in favour of inflicting torture and pain, mainly on women. Under pressure from the world community they have 'suspended' the stoning of Sakineh Mohammadi Ashtiani, although crucially they have not said that she won't be killed some other way...... she has already been given 99 lashes witnessed by her son, then in his late teens. 

As this blog has discussed before, stoning women to death is still 'alive and well' in the Islamic world ..... at least the Iranians are 'equal opportunity stoners' with men as well as women stoned, although, its made harder for women ...somehow.

I won't post any pictures of the horror that is a stoning, but simply searching for 'stonings' and images, show the degradation and terror that bearded men of god inflict, when given unrestricted power over ordinary men and women's lives. Every person of conscience should think about this poor woman and the other both men and women who face death for nothing at the hands of Sharia laws.

Islamic Science: Women Responsible For Earthquakes

Promiscuous women are responsible for earthquakes, a senior Iranian cleric has said.

Hojatoleslam Kazem Sedighi told worshippers in Tehran last Friday, that they had to stick to strict codes of modesty to protect themselves.

"Many women who do not dress modestly lead young men astray and spread adultery in society which increases earthquakes," he said.

These guys like to call themselves 'scholars' but are just plain ignorant.

Makes A Nice Change!

The Iranians are finally getting the "hang" of this "Equal Opportunity" thingy, however it may need a little refinement before it meets EU standards!

News was out this week that two men convicted of adultery were stoned to death in north-eastern Iran last month, but a third convicted man managed to escape, according to Iran's judiciary spokesman, Ali Reza Jamshid.

Normally the man is either not even charged, or bribes his way out of trouble, whereas the poor women get hanged, stoned, or shot (and sometimes all three), so this has to be taken as a great advance in equality in Islamic jurisprudence.

The escapee? Ah well he was a wily Afghan who apparently managed to dig himself out of the hole (Men are buried only to the waist, but women to the shoulder ...... Hmm, seems a bit unfair that, but have to walk before we can run eh?), and therefore escaped execution.
