I'm wondering if the Afghan women would pick up bats, could they put the 'religious students' on the run?

Even the most fundamentalist government, over time, has to deal with freedom doesn't it?

This is the modern era birthplace of all this fundamentalist crap, how ironic that they are now the new pro-westerners. I guess they grew tired of living like a bunch of terds. On a lighter note: I remember when the ayatollah died and the mourners were in such a frenzy that they overturned his coffin and dropped his sorry butt in the street, that was a real knee slapper.

Kind of gives you a warm fuzzy feeling doesn't it? Now if they'll just pay the 1979 hostages their lawsuit claims we might feel even better.

Sports bringing the world together.

Maybe, or maybe young people just like to rebel against whatever is handy. A generation ago they rebeled by putting on the veils, now they are rebeling by ripping them off. Rebels wore beards and longhair in one generation, skinheads defined the next.

Short attention span bringing the world together?

Girls blew hooters at Islamic vigilantes armed with staves while their boyfriends fought riot police with stones and homemade explosives.

Go for it, kids! You know what to do with those staves to the Islamic vigilantes.

"In Tehran, the young people braved tear gas and blows from the security forces to cavort to the sound of the Western pop star Sonique, blaring from radios. Girls blew hooters at Islamic vigilantes armed with staves while their boyfriends fought riot police with stones and homemade explosives."

YOU GOTTA FIGHT!
FOR YOUR RIGHT!!!
TO PAAARTYYYY!!!!

Actually I think they need a better concept of freedom before they will ever win that fight...

LICENSE is not LIBERTY. The licentious need their strict moralist prudes if they are to ever survive the weekend. They will run back the Islamic rod if they don't start thinking deeper thoughts then the Beasty Boys philosophy!

Sounds like the Isla Vista riots of 1970 where the students burned the Bank of America.
