Iran's parliament is set to debate a draft bill which could see the death penalty used for those deemed to promote corruption, prostitution and apostasy on the internet, reports said on Wednesday....

They kill you for leaving your religion (Islam) !!! My god !!! How can you even prove that ?

Their entire justice system seems pretty much set up to get people out of the way who could be a thorn in the side to the regime.

You pretty much called it. Control is the name of the game. But isn't that the goal of any government? Guess some are just more subtle than others.

On the bright side, it is a sign that they are finding it harder to control the media.
They can't hold back the tide forever.

I'm not sure whether to praise them for killing off bloggers, or condemn for killing people who express themselves freely. :hmm: I am leaning towards the latter though.

The threat to attack Iran is very real to me, from Israel's threat if Obama is elected to President Bush's fleet exercises off their shores.

It feels wrong to think we could be doing their society a favor with a direct hit on their nuclear power for weapons program.

They would have to start all over again by over throwing the present regime and installing a pro-western president and cabinet.

Sort of feels redneck in a way, but what if it really happened?

Aren't parts of Seattle under sharia law?

What are you going to do if they catch you?:p
"Subman1, we find you guilty of posting mass political threads!" Stoning or be-heading?
