Glorifying Iran - Idiots on the move

Hi there!

Now, I'm wondering what drives all this pro-Iran ******** that goes around these days. That it's their sacred right to have nukes, that the West has no right to stop them, etc.

Why would anyone with any traces of common sense (ie no Qu'ran thumpers) actually buy into that ******** and actively work against their own people (with this, I mean our lovely Western apologists)? This is Iran. A bloody theocrazy ruled by religious nutjobs. They treat their women like cattle and is in general not exactly a predictable country.

Please tell me why.

I'm going to just watch this thread and not take part in it.

People can't have a proper debate and result to offensive comments and neg repping.

ok maybe one thing

They treat their women right, rape rates, and abuse are very low in iran.
Yes, they have to wear a headscarf, but they're all muslims anyway.

Probably because no one dares report it for fear of being stoned.

Women in Iran have many more rights then women in Saudi Arabia.

Great they're slightly better off than in the worst country in the world for women's rights. What a magnificent achievement.

Some Westerners treat their women as cattle tooooo.

iranian women in iran have a better quality of life than westerners, unless you've lived in iran you can't prove me wrong.

The difference between the two is one is in an alliance with Russia and China and the other is americas bitch boy. I think you will find very few westerners in power want Iran to get nukes - the argument is simply how to go about showing our displeasure. The American-Israeli way of "hey we're going to kick your ass with our massive airforces" or the European method of "hey we're going to **** your economy up real good bro".

Whats your point about Iran being ran by religious nutjobs? I've seen enough of the American evangenical right to be a lot more scared of Americans then Iranians. You seem to think Iran is some screwed up middle eastern country. It isn't - it has a limited form of democracy and much greater rights for its citizens who have a great cultural heritage as the former Persian empire. Iran just happens to be ran by a tool at the moment - who isn't even that bad. I heard about Gordon Brown saying tough words to the Israel parliament about Irans president saying he'd wipe israel off the map. The irony here is that the Iranian president didn't even say this and Gordon brown was lying through his teeth.

I'm not trying to get at you here..but how do you know who said..who didn't say what.

I bet they do.

I spent this morning lying in my garden wearing a bikini, getting a lovely tan, drinking a can of strongbow and reading a book.

How dare you say the women of iran have a better quality of life.


The book (crime and punishment by Dostoyevsky) made a less than shining reference to Mohammed so would likely be banned in Iran.
