Reply #18: i hope people see what's happening with these iran stories

troll shield: i'm a radical feminist and i hate all forms of religious intolerance towards women's rights. this is a barbaric practice.

that said- has anyone noticed that each passing day we get new stories about the 'horrors' of life in iran? we're being primed for war against them, just like we were in the spin up to the war on iraq. horror! barbarism! the iranians are worse than hitler! (i expect that one soon)

there are problems with every society, our own is no exception. most here would agree that the way to stop these kinds of practices is to engage the society peacefully, and use economic and social pressures to convince other nations to join the circle of modern civilization. we here in the us, by our actions in iraq and elsewhere, have given up our right to criticize any nation for what we perceive as wrong.

this story, and most others about iran coming out in our press today, are for an entirely different purpose: to make people ready for another war for oil.
