Iran: police attack Women's Day march

Yet another example of the repression under which Iranian Women must live. Even when they try to celebrate International Womens Day they are beaten off the streets. Support these women in their struggle against Islam, dont support the mullahs.

"Iran: police attack Women's Day march.

Iranian police and plainclothes agents yesterday charged a peaceful assembly of women’s rights activists in Tehran and beat hundreds of women and men who had gathered to commemorate International Women’s Day, Human Rights Watch said today.

The attack took place shortly after participants in the celebration assembled at Tehran’s Daneshjoo Park at 4 p.m. on Wednesday, March 8.

“The Iranian authorities marked International Women’s Day by attacking hundreds of people who had peacefully assembled to honor women’s rights,” said Joe Stork, deputy Middle East director at Human Rights Watch. “Once again, Iran’s government has signaled that it is ready to use violence to suppress peaceful public assembly of any sort.”

Eyewitnesses told Human Rights Watch that plainclothes agents, anti-riot police and Revolutionary Guards surrounded the park where hundreds of activists gathered."

Senator David Norris raised the issue of treatment of the LGBT community in Iran on PrimeTime on RTE three weeks ago - he commented on the disgraceful hanging of 2 gay teenagers in Iran.

But the Iranian influence is now in Iraq:

Sistani fatwa provokes terror against queers

Grand Ayatollah Ali al-Sistani of Iraq has issued a death fatwa against lesbian and gay people. On his website, he calls for the killing of homosexuals in the "worst, most severe way"

“Sistani is not even Iraqi. He is an Iranian national who has set himself up as a religious leader in Iraq. He wants to impose an Iranian-style theocracy on the Iraqi people.

Q5: What is the judgment for sodomy and lesbianism?

A5: Forbidden. Punished, in fact, killed. The people involved should be killed in the worst, most severe way of killing.
