Iran's state broadcaster, Irib, has sacked the head of a regional TV channel after it broadcast a Jackie Chan film without removing a sex scene.
A video posted online apparently by a viewer on Kish Island showed the Hong Kong martial arts star having sex with a woman in the film Shinjuku Incident.
Iranian media said the "immoral" scene was aired by Kish TV in "total violation of Irib's regulations".
Physical contact between men and women is not permitted on screen in Iran.
Censors are also said to be required to remove men and women exchanging "tender words or jokes", unveiled women, close-ups of women's faces and exposed necklines, as well as negative portrayals of police and bearded men.

Of course, pre-teen brides and “marriages of convenience” with a woman that only last for a night while a Muslim is “traveling” or just horny are just fine under Islam.

We love Jackie Chan and have seen Shinjuku Incident.
I can't for the life of me remember anything the least bit sexual or revealing.
I'll re-watch it this week sometime.
Muzzies are friggin' whack jobs !

Jackie Chan sex scene? Yuk.
Chan in his prime was good at physical comedy. But this sounds gross.
And, of course, he’s a screaming commie.
