There are two straight women in Iran convicted of adultery who are going to be buried almost up to their shoulders, then have rocks throw at their heads until their skulls are crushed and they die. Rumored to take between 20 minutes and two hours. https://deathpenaltynews.blogspot.co...-women-on.html

A bit harsher than a slap on the hand.

All I can find are two figures, one stating 17 million and the other 22. At the time, it was considered one of the most extravagant festivals.

Maybe you should have offered him asylum in your house.

It’s hard to trust ANY of them. The truth is that they can spin it any way that they want. As a rule, hyper religious ppl of any nationality tend to be the most judgmental to those who are different.

Actually from my view it is the right that has stopped thinking...They could care less about truth, but follow whatever lie comes out their cult leaders pie hole.

Look at the liberals defending Muslims! “But Christianity” or “its their culture/laws” their most common defense of Muslims murdering homosexuals.

I can believe $17-22 million for the party. $5,000 million (5 billion), not so much.

And the West promotes transgender surgeries and drag queen story hour...

From one extreme to the other...

I doubt Iran or the Muslim world in general are losing sleep...

1. We can't control what Iran does with their people. The UN might pass resolutions but it really isn't the job of the USA to do anything about it.

2. Don't visit countries who do things that you oppose.

3.The ME is at least 100 years behind the west in progressive thinking.

I won't even take a flight if the layover is in a middle eastern country. I spent enough time over there when I served.
