Well, only about 25,000,000 more to go before the 'Revolution' is overturned.

And the Left doesn't think that Muslims want Islamic Law here in the US.

They're pro Jihadist only because we're anti-Jihadist. If I hear (or read) that there's "no difference between a Baptist and a Muslim", I'm going to puke.

Under Iran's Islamic laws, a man is allowed to keep four wives at one time, a right not granted to women.

Why would a woman want four wives?

Under Iran's Islamic laws, a man is allowed to keep four wives at one time, a right not granted to women.

Even if a husband is having an affair, he can claim to have undertaken a "sigheh," or temporary marriage. It's a contract allowed under Iranian law that allows a man and woman to be "married" for any length of time they choose. Critics call it a form of legalized prostitution.

You know, there is alot we could learn from these people...

Perhaps the biography of Lorena Bobbit should be translated into Farsi.

...a number of problems in Iranian society that lead to frustration and desperation: forced marriages, philandering by husbands, impotence, poverty and no healthy entertainment in a country whose Islamic laws ban socializing between men and women who are not closely related....

While Iranian men can divorce almost at will...

Islam is evil.

They've got a religious word to justify any strange desire. Wanna kill someone? Its a jihad. Want to cheat on your wife? Its a singheh.

In Islamic countries (Turkey is not truly Islamic, having a secular government) , Iran provides for the most legal protections for women...gives you an idea how bad women have it in Arabia.

HA! I don't know any man who could handle FOUR wives.

In fact, there are times that handling ONE wife proves to be too much!
