BTW, persecution of Christians in iran is a constant phenomenon, seeing ups and downs only in intensity. It saw an obvious spike at the time of Khomenei, then a low in late 90s, and now since ahmadinejadh's raise a drastic increase again.

I guess it's part religion, part politics. Want to rally your people against the enemy, clamp down on the religion of the enemy. "It could be worse, you could be a Christian." That kinda thing. It's kinda like that old game where you guess what cup the pea is under, keep moving the pea, keep the people guessing and their minds off the fact that their country is about as popular as the DPRK and probably has as much foreign trade.

Politics and relgion is the same in Islam. The rule saying that discrimination of infidels is manadtory for every muslim male in order to make the infidels feel their submissive state and their inferiority as a well-deserved penalty for refusing to become Muslim, is laid down black on white in the Quran. the rule that Jews shall wear small rags of yellow colour on their cloathing and shall not be allowed to wear shoes, too.

Since over a thoisuand years, Jews and christians are systematically discirminated in pratcially all Muslim mcoutnries, and as long you see their number sin these nations declining. the only noticable exception fromt he rule was when the french kicked out the Jews and tried to do to them what later the Nazis did much more successful. The Jews fled to and were welcomed in the Ottoman empire - but only because they payed their entrance with giving the Ottomans knoweldge of the superior milutary technology of the West, which was the one thing the ottoman military was inferior to (it's fighting spriit and morale was superior). Today, Turkey systematically discriminates the Christian churches in the country, refuses modernisation of badly hurt churches, and uses plenty of tricks and delay tactics to prevent chroistians from access to laws and legal rights that would allow them to maintain their churches and Christian communtiies. The big churches are practically locked out from turkey, and only some numerically unimportant christian sects of partialy dubious origin are tolerated in to establish new club rooms - which then get claimed to be new "churches" (which they are not as a matter of fact, for the turks use their legal standards to prevent right that), and which then also is sold to the Western public as an illustration of that Turkey cares so well for it's Christians.

the drivijng out of Jews and Chroistians in muslim nations is a process that was constantly going on - since a millenia, until today. the musloim coutnries since long time become pourer and ourer and more and more monocultural. at the samke time we aloow them to have build thousands of mosques and "cultre centres" in Europe.

We are so very dumb, stupid, idiotic, braindead. Honestely said, I often think when we were born the doctor saw all the blood, thought we were zombies, and shot our brains into pieces - that dumb we behave.

Analysis: Deadly clash highlights border tensions,
 
Jerusalem (CNN) -- It was a timely reminder that four years of relative calm on the Israeli-Lebanese border cannot be taken for granted The Israeli military was focusing on Monday's rocket attacks on its Red Sea resort of Eilat and the neighboring Jordanian city of Aqaba and on increasing tit-for-tat attacks on its border with Gaza.

But it was its border with Lebanon that was to prove the most deadly. An Israeli officer and several Lebanese soldiers were killed in the exchange of fire Tuesday across the volatile boundary.

What would be considered gardening elsewhere in the world led to deaths and accusations from both Israel and Lebanon that the other violated U.N. Security Council Resolution 1701, the resolution which was intended to resolve the 2006 Israel-Hezbollah war.
