Iran begins executions for adultery and other violations


Per the International Hearald Tribune online (http://pageoneq.com/rssfeedstuff/index.php?id=13538), Iran is preparing more executions of those who fail to live up to the Islamo-facsist's theocratic rules:

TEHRAN: The Iranian government confirmed Tuesday that a man was executed by stoning last week for committing adultery, and said that 20 more men would be executed in the coming days on morality violations.
He said the 20 additional executions were for such things as "rape, insulting religious sanctities and laws, and homosexuality." Most executions in Iran are hangings, often in public and at the scenes of the alleged crimes.

The police arrested about 1,000 people in May during a so-called morality crackdown. Jamshidi said 15 more men were being tried on similar charges and could receive death sentences.
Clearly, Islamic fanatics are a threat to the West and to many average Muslims and need to be stopped. Crimes of "insulting religious sanctities" basically allows these fanatics to accuse almost anyone. When I see this type of news story, it makes me think what could happen in this country if the Christianists are not likewise stopped. I suspect Daddy Dobson and his Christianist compatriots would not shed a tear to see gays publicly executed in this country.
