التعاون الخليجي يرحب بالتوجهات الجديدة لايران ويقر تشكيل قيادة عسكرية مشتركة

To the GCC "foreign" means non-Wahabbi ... They want all non-Wahabbi forces to leave Syria ...

To what are you referring dear ice-man?

hahaha ...

The deal is that the US, EU, Russia and many other countries will not stand for a terrorist state in Syria and that is what will happen if the GCC proxies prevail ... That means the terrorists will have to go.

come on Geha... I hate HA as much as anybody.. but to think that Iran will let go of their ace just like that is downright crazy...
if indeed this was part of the deal you would have seen some measures leading up to it.. not the GCC calling for it and HA obliging.. let us be realistic..

there was a moratorium in 2002 against stoning in iran, and since it hasent been applied.
can i link your profile on the wikipedia definition of "outdated" ?

@Mowaten : your comment should be marked as UNTRUE : http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/politics/special-report-the-punishment-was-death-by-stoning-the-crime-having-a-mobile-phone-8846585.html

This shows how your 2002 ban was never applied : http://english.alarabiya.net/en/News/middle-east/2013/05/30/Iran-amends-law-on-stoning-for-adultery-.html

Irrespective of the date, the mere fact that they still use "archaic" methods shows they are no more advanced than Saudis when it comes to Human Rights. And don't try and use the "women can drive" stupid argument ...

2002 eh, well 11 years isnt enough to change a barbaric stone throwing murderer into a civilized being. the pro khomenei are the same as the head chopping wahabis. however, i recognize not all iranian people fall into this category, while most saudis do.

FC: your link about the stoning is in Pakistan. at least read your own articles before posting them.
i maintain what i said.

kanaandian: i was answering FC who was saying iranians were stoning people while it has been suspended 11 years ago. i was pointing out he was a bit late.

I personally dont care much how death sentences are carried out, electric chair, hanging, lethal injection, beheading or stoning. very little difference.
what i care about is why they are applied. i think it's unacceptable for adultery, blasphemy and things like that NO MATTER WHERE. whereas for sadistic murderers, pedophiles, rapists and the like i dont care if they rot in jail or are put to death. as long as they're taken out of the streets.

Yes you're right. I copied the wrong link.

And the second link shows stoning is still applicable in Iran... maintain what you said. Hide your head in the ground. Fine by me. This doesn't make it any truer. There was stonings in 2013 !!!

Now I love your point about "why death sentences are applied" rather than "how". Any research will show you Iranians can sentence men and women to death for reasons as stupid as "looking at another man" or "suspicion of...". THis is your stone age patron no more advanced than Saudi Arabia.

@Southern : don't you dare talk about the rights of women in Iran. Or the rights of Shiite women in Lebanon after the Iranian Islamist doctrine was imported to Lebanon. (No Comment on Saudi and Sunni extemists as they are indeed worst).

Just because they can drive doesn't mean they have more rights ! They are still treated as second class citizens. You have nothing to pride yourself with !

Look at Shiite women anytime before the Iranian revolution. They had infinitely more rights and freedoms than today.

At least they weren't veiled ! Unveil your women and then we can talk about how you respect their rights.

And by the way, there is no such thing as the "rights of women" vs "men". Human beings have the same rights!

anonyme: the guy saying women not wearing niqab caused earthquakes is as moronic as the US pastor who said gays caused hurricane katrina or smtg like this..
iran is certainly conservative and backward to a certain extent, but to compare it to saudi is a clear sign that you have no idea what you're talking about.

@SOuthern :

"the work force of women is higher than men within HA party"

1- This has nothing to do with Human Rights
2- A political party is NOT an employer ! This shows you know nothing about the economy. if you spend your funds on building companies rather than war, you would be the #1 economical force in Lebanon !
3- Your workforce numbers does not include your fighters. This is where all the men are.
4- Giving "jobs" to women doesn't mean you treat them equally. Nothing to be proud of. Saudis also employ women ...

@Southern :

How about you tell me if "Hezbollah" women can go out on dates with men before marrying them? Can drink alcohol without repercussions? Can study abroad ? Can move out of home before getting married ?

Who gets to keep the children in a divorce ? How is the inheritance shared between female and male heirs (better than sunnis for sure). Not equally!

How do you consider and treat women who aren't veiled ?

Why did Hezbollah women start wearing the veil ? By pressure or conviction ? They weren't wearing them before HA came along... and they were not committing more sins either.

Why "Mot3a" when sex is free ? God won't mind, he knows all, sees all and forgives all so why do you need to sign a contract with a Sheikh (Charlatan just like priests)?

Are women free to choose who to marry ?

Ok ill learn to spell biased before I give "advise",my advice is use a spell checker, heres some more advice it's time you decided if youre an Iranian/Syrian second class citizen or a Lebanese citizen who puts his country first.

Pfff you need to relax roar.

Speaking of terrorists here are the masters of that trade, maybe do some research before you open that pretty mouth of yours:
