“An Thoughtful Stoning”
By Kamangir • Jul 10th, 2007 • Category: Human Rights, Iran, Islamic Republic, WomenThis is the English translation of a post by Another Viewpoint, regarding the recent stoning in Iran.
The Iranian Judiciary acted very thoughtfully when they stoned him (and not both of them). Obviously, all the human rights and anti-execution organizations will start condemning it. However, their main energy will be concentrated on saving her. Then, the Judiciary can cancel the stoning of the lady and proudly say “See? We are not that bad! We listen to the international concerns, especially about women.” At the same time, they have sent a message to the layers of the Iranian society who, for any reason, were looking forward to the stoning. The message would be, “We do not listen to anyone. We carry out God’s verdict.” To sum up, a man has been victimized by the power struggle. I do wish stoning is forgotten forever.

The post makes perfect sense, sadly. Two birds, one stone, all you need is a little human sacrifice to facilitate matters.
