Top Islamic Cleric says women without veils must die!

In the name of Islam countless Muslim fanatics use any and every opportunity to stage violent protests, issue death threaths, destroy property, murder, and commit other acts of terrorism.

They go nuts (yes, nuts) over cartoons and teddy bears, while they generally keep quiet over acts of terrorism and other human rights violations commited by fellow members of their so-called Jihad.’(Jihad bis Saif)

A top Muslim cleric in Iran, Hojatolislam Gholam Reza Hassani was quoted on Wednesday as saying; “Women who do not respect the hijab and their husbands deserve to die!”

Hassani leads Friday prayers in the city of Urumieh, in Iranian Azerbaijan. He is the representative of the Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei for Eastern Azerbaijan.

“I do not understand how these women who do not respect the hijab, 28 years after the birth of the Islamic Republic, are still alive,” he said.

Hassani’s statements came after two Kurdish feminists in Iran were accused of being members of an armed rebel group and of carrying out subversive activities threatening the security of the state.

It is believed that his statements and the arrests could spark a fresh crackdown on women who do not repect the Islamic dress code in Iran.

Thousands of women in Iran have already been warned this year for their “un-Islamic dress” such as wearing tight, short coats and skimpy headscarves and the hubris of these mysogynist pigs is almost without bounds or shame.

I keep saying that only education will fix these attitudes in the Middle East and elsewhere but I am also starting to think that some of these people need to be sent to an out of the way island somewhere so they can do no more harm.
