Islamic news interrupted by hardcore porn

Viewers of Iran's Islamic News Network were shocked to find their broadcast interrupted by hardcore porn.

Residents watching the daily news in Hamedan, a province renowned for its religious fanaticism, were treated to a surprise three-minute clip of graphic sexual scenes.

The distribution of porn in Iran is punishable by execution.

"It was an immoral and dirty sex film - in fact it's the dirtiest thing I've ever seen," complained one viewer.

According to Tehran daily Jomhurieh Islami, the state-run News Network have confirmed the incident and are launching an investigation.

Why are Menonites, the Amish, or those from other conservative Christian sects not terrorists, if "sexual repression" is such an important cause for that kind of discontent? It HAS been my personal observation that Muslim students in America are completely out of control with their sexuality, but maybe it's because they have such a skewed view in general of human sexuality, and not because of a deep belief that human sexuality the way God made it is at the crux of the universe, as in Christianity.

Considering the dullness of their television, it was probably "Mary Poppins".

I suspect it was one of those clips from a James Bond movie where he makes love to the "Bond girl" at the end of his mission. ;-)

Because they're so repressed about their own natural desires,

Jacking off to images of two-dimensional strangers having sex is a natural desire?

And, if it's being broadcast in the middle of the news, is it particularly okay to "turn on" since -- surely -- "everybody's doin' it?"

Get real.

[fhayek]

I had similar thoughts. Sounds a little like psy-ops to me.

..And no matter how much I rewound it and watched it, it never got better! Why, they had naked _unmutilated_ women! And NONE of the 72 dark-eyed virgin goats.

[Chad Fairbanks]

Ah... apparently Muslims like their women shaken, not stirred...? ;0)

[goldstategop]

How dare they not hump with burqas on. How dare they!!! :)

LOL! I was actually referring to who might have jammed the Iranian version of primetime.......

"It was the filthiest thing I've ever seen Muhammed! An obvious deviant western prostitute with ankles, face, and even hair completely exposed was dancing around the mountains -- by herself -- singing some satanic invocation about the hills being alive with the sound of music..."

Stranger than fiction:

Chiang Ching herself had drunk saffron water, dined off golden carp, kept an entire truckload of pornographic films, including the notorious Sound of Music ...

-- Paul Johnson, Modern Times, describing charges against the Gang of Four.

heh heh heh... although, I have been accused of it, so... ;0)

What do you want to bet that the birthrate for this region goes up in 9 months? I bet the odds are pretty good.

"Oh, Abdullah! Let's twist again like we did last summer!"

[ofMagog]

Humblegunner swears he was merely trying to set the clock on the VCR and all of a sudden....

[ErnBatavia]

or if they stuck around to watch all three minutes.

Another bust! Somebody "timed" it...

[Dakmar]

They were actually watching an old Army hygiene film.

Oh, did it show a female ankle?
