74 lashes for women who are “un-Islamically” dressed

Gholam-Hossein Mohseni-Ejehei, Iran’s public prosecutor announced: “Proper veiling and Islamic dress code that upholds women’s chastity and modesty is a public issue. Indubitably this is an absolute legal and Sharia matter that is a religious imperative. Being un-Islamically dressed is a crime.” Citing legal cases related to crimes against public morals and ethics in the Islamic punishments that are handed down, he specified: “Article 638 of this law clarifies that if any woman acts indecently and against this religious regulation in public places, other than the punishment of 10 days to two months detention, they will also receive 74 lashes. Also according to the punitive laws that we set in place in the year 1365 (1986) any shop keeper, importer or distributor of clothes injurious to morality, will first receive a warning by the Ministry of Islamic Guidance; if it happens a second time they will be severely reprimanded, a third time they will be threatened and finally, the forth time, their shops and business will be fined, their shops and businesses shut down for a period of anywhere between 3 to 6 months and they will receive 10 to 20 lashes.”

How could one “love humanity but hate mankind”?

Liberals have “progressed” into a dark, dark fascist ideology of total control, death and oppression. I think it is because they have managed to cleanse incorrect thinkers from higher education and are no longer challenged intellectually. They have gone over the cliff and are taking the whole Nation and world with them. Both parties and social and business leaders.

Funny thing, we never hear from the NOW gang about these stories.

Left wing libbers and gay activists see no evil, hear no evil and speak no evil as long as their Liberals are in power. There will be a special place in hell for them, I’m sure.

The women feminists are smoking their pot and demanding the right to be topless while turning their back on women in Muslim countries who are whipped for making the peep hole in their black burkas a bit bigger.

These poor women roast in these burkas while Muslim men can walk around topless, chew the qat and have many wives, all sentenced to life as nothing more than a chattel like a cow.

Women feminists are too busy demanding abortions and attacking Sarah Palin for loving her Down Syndrome baby, and her daughter for keeping and loving her own child.

Burning bras was a good idea but feminists burned their souls too. Hypocrits ALL.

Where are the gay libbers? Their silence is deafening as their brothers are hung for being homos.

Feminists and gay activists are too self centered and short sighted to realize that if we lived under Sharia law they will be in the front line to be beheaded.

They might not believe in heaven and hell, but they could at least care about future generations.

“Love humanity and hate mankind” accurately demonstrates the confused minds of these people. They’ll wail over the lost Pakistanis in the recent flood but pay no mind to the inner city child who was cheated out of an education and proper upbringing.
