Top cleric says women without veils must die
Quote:
Tehran, 19 Dec. (AKI) - A top Muslim cleric in Iran, Hojatolislam Gholam Reza Hassani said on Wednesday that women in Iran who do not wear the hijab or Muslim headscarf, should die.

"Women who do not respect the hijab and their husbands deserve to die," said Hassani, who leads Friday prayers in the city of Urumieh, in Iranian Azerbaijan.

"I do not understand how these women who do not respect the hijab, 28 years after the birth of the Islamic Republic, are still alive," he said.

"These women and their husbands and their fathers must die," said Hassani, who is the representative of the Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei in eastern Azerbaijan.

Hassani's statements came after two Kurdish feminists in Iran were accused of being members of an armed rebel group and of carrying out subversive activities threatening the security of the state.

It is believed that his statements and the arrests could spark a fresh crackdown on women who do not repect the Islamic dress code in Iran.

Thousands of women in Iran have already been warned this year for their "un-Islamic dress" such as wearing tight, short coats and skimpy headscarves.

Resisting the urge to make fun of this silly thread ...

I'll say instead: get a grip - realize that not everyone on the planet lives in your culture.

Starting to think of you more and more as 'Rasczak O'Reilly - the Rabble Rouser'.

Of course they have to die. How dare they!! I mean, not wearing a piece of clothing merits death in my book...........

........and so does creating threads on forums such as this, where it is plainly obvious that any right-minded person will answer "NO".

This thread is just religious flame bait, and the O.P. is just itching to troll it.

I'm much more conservative than O'Reilly. Please.

You say that like its a bad thing. Come on and cheer up already. Its a season for happiness.

So, I can take from your statement that murdering women for not wearing a table cloth over their head is not right-minded? Its wrong-minded! Santa is sure to leave an extra goodie in your stocking.

From their perspective YES, Its their culture, their rules ,they broke em. From a more centralized perspective, NO , why would they do such a thing, its inhumane! Thats just as bad as all the other taboos in cultures worldwide, mine is right, everyone else is wrong.

Seriously though.. Yea they should.
