Iran Judge Bites the Press Representative

May 25, 2004

Iran va Jahan

Potkin Azarmehr

In a weekly meeting between Islamic Republic judiciary and the country's press representatives, Judge Mohseni-Ezhei physically attacked Isa Saharkhiz from the press, by throwing two glass bowls at his head and then biting him on the lower abdomen.

An argument broke out in the meeting after reviewing an article printed in one of the Iranian magazines on the relationship between boys and girls. Isa Saharkhiz defended the article while judge Mohseni Ezhei hurled insults at him.

Saharkhiz took offence and said the judge's remarks were an affront not just to Saharkhiz but to the entire writers and journalists in the country. At this point judge Ezhei fed up with continuing the debate, physically attacked Saharkhiz and bit him.

Saharkhiz was sent to hospital and doctors have advised a two week rest for him.

So, this is how to handle lying reporters.

Apparently, this judge is partial to throwing bowls at this press rep.

"•In today's meeting of the press supervision council, cleric Hojat-ol-Eslam Gholamhossein Mohseni-Ezhehee, head of the special court for the clergy, threw a sugar bowl at the representative of newspaper publishers Isa Saharkhiz and then bit his arm. There is a video of the event which I urge the Supreme Leader to see, Tehran-based lawyer Nemat Ahmadi tells Radio Farda. Ezheh-ee had assaulted Saharkhiz with a sugar bowl in another meeting as well, adds Ahmadi. (Siavash Ardalan)"

Moon worshiper attacks MSM of Iran?

To do so in the US of A would take several bottles of Listerine and at least six months to get the foul taste out.

At least it's better than what they usually do with independent journalists.

I guess you could say that the imams are "moderating" their behavior.

Apparently he wasn't totally "fed up"- he had room for just a bite more!

I feel so sorry for the men and women who have to shield their desires and suppress their identity just because they happen to live in a backward, medievalist, theocratic state.

These psychos would like you to believe that

Fatiha

is some bizarre anomaly that bears no resemblance to what's actually occurring in the Islamic world.

That couldn't be farther from the truth. It's a phenomenon that is just as prevalent in the East as it is in the West; they just don't like to admit it.

If you believe that the homosexual or lesbian population of Tehran or Isfahan is any smaller than that of San Francisco or Chicago, you're kidding yourself.
