I remember when the Ayatollah went back to Iran in 1979 and I had very bad misgivings about it. 31 years on and that country seems to be sinking further into the dark ages rather then look towards reform.

It just incenses me Cologne.
It's one thing to have respect for the right of countries to self determination over their own laws but this gender apartheid should be something the world should act on.
Pre 9/11 I spent several afternoons demonstrating about the conditions that women in Afghanistan were being subjected to.
Not many people seemed to care that much

Bloody disgusting!
I was reading about it the other day.
Apparently, they are spared if they can get out of the hole, but men are burried up to their waist and women up to their necks!

Man's inhumanity to man, I have just read that article and I am in floods of tears. Even in the proccess of killing them , they make it more difficult for the women. Barbaric
I've watched this piece of news with tears in my eyes. Mahmoud Ahmadinejad went to the UN and was allowed to spout his nonsense. I don't know what can be done if there are people who are actually willing to throw stones at this woman buried half way in the ground. She says she's not guilty (in the Iranian view), but she had 90 lashes 5 years ago and then they decided to impose the death penalty withouth another proper trial. I just can't comprehend this.

Barbaric , to say the least

I just can't comprehend this.

Hard to believe we're in the 21st century.
Iran is run by a pack of weirdos. Oops, not very PC.
I just saw that on the News...it sickens me, i cannot believe this goes on...it's far too much to comprehend, especially all the 'Men' milling about burying her in the sand....how dare these countries and their countrymen hide behind the Human Rights Laws when it suits, then allow this to happen?????

True though and the problem is that the western states are afraid of them because they think they've developed the means to create a nuclear bomb. It makes me question (yet again) why we have them in the first place.Reference:

Go and sign up to Blizzie's website DID. The more the better. I have a horrible feeling that we are too late though because she has exhausted all avenues of defence.
Sad, really sad Always the fault of women!
Sickens me that things like this are still happening in this so-called civilised world.
Signed.

I know this is controversial, but that is the reason I am suspicious of muslim religion. Not per se, please understand, but what comes across is the persecusion of women. I'd love to see an uprising of the real muslim religion and tell the once who misinterpret the Quoran where they get it wrong.Reference:

All partiarchal religions have or are still persecuting women cologne....no need to pick on just muslims. Do you think Christianity is free from it? From witch burnings up to the Magdalen laundries, the allowing of institutional rape within marriage, control over their reproduction, forced adoptions from single women parents etc etc... just because we don't have anything as drastic as stoning in this country now, don't think for a minute that women's second class role in society has not been totally down to our Christian heritage...and if we did not keep the Christian voice down here, who knows what crap you and me would have to endure.

Kaytee , i did that too. Go to Blizzies original one and it should work

I was brought up a catholic and I don't believe in any religion. Muslims and persecuting women stands out.
We don't allow laundries, rape, or burning witches here! Alas some Muslim areas have stoning and female circumcision.

and we accommodate it. Sorry if I'm treading on anybody's toes, but I feel strongly about this.
