Muslin extremism. Death by stoning. Reason? Because the hairstyle and dress were were deemed inappropriate and dangerous to society.
Religious "Moral Police" who have been authorized to eliminate teenagers wearing "emo" haircuts and tight clothing reportedly stoned to death 90 teenagers after the Iraqi interior ministry declared them devil worshipers.
Truly barbaric. Reminiscent of the dark ages when women in Europe and the American colonies were burned at the stake for being deemed "witches" by the "religious police" of that era.
What more reason should anyone need to understand exactly why the founders of this nation were amendment in creating "a wall of separation between religion and state."
Historically religious zealots have been responsible for an untold numbers of deaths. All justified by religious beliefs and driven by intolerance of anything that threatens their beliefs.

Muslin extremism. Death by stoning. Reason? Because the hairstyle and dress were were deemed inappropriate and dangerous to society.
Religious "Moral Police" who have been authorized to eliminate teenagers wearing "emo" haircuts and tight clothing reportedly stoned to death 90 teenagers after the Iraqi interior ministry declared them devil worshipers.
Alarabiya News - Iraqi activists sounded the bell over the killing of dozens of teenagers by religious police for having “emo” haircuts.
Activists told the Cairo-based al-Akhbar daily that at least 90 Iraqi teenagers with “emo” appearances have been stoned to death by the Moral Police in the country in the past month. The violent crackdown against “emo” Iraqi teenagers came after the Iraqi interior ministry declared them as “devil worshippers.”
“The ‘Emo phenomenon’ or devil worshiping is being probed by the Moral Police who have the approval to eliminate it as soon as possible since it’s detrimentally affecting the society and becoming a danger,” according to a statement by the interior ministry.
“They wear strange, tight clothes that have pictures on them such as skulls and use stationery that are shaped as skulls. They also wear rings on their noses and tongues, and do other strange activities,” the statement added.
The statement said that Iraq’s Moral Police was granted approval by the Ministry of Education to enter Baghdad schools and pinpoint students with Western appearances.
The activists told the newspaper that a group of armed men dressed in civilian clothing led the teenagers to secluded areas a few days ago, stoned them to death, and then disposed their bodies in garbage dumpsters across the capital, Baghdad.
“First they throw concrete blocks at the boy’s arms, then at his legs, then the final blow is to his head, and if he is not dead by then, they start all over again,” one person who managed to escape told the daily.
The exact death toll remains unclear, but Hana al-Bayaty of Brussels Tribunal, an NGO dealing with Iraqi issues, said the current figure ranges “between 90 and 100.”
Activists said that leaflets were distributed in Baghdad warning teenagers from donning the “emo” style, and in some regions, teenage homosexuals were killed by battering their heads also by concrete blocks.

Not a peep from Noam Chomsky on this - wanna bet?
ReplyDeleteNo. I'm quite sure you are right.
DeleteIf it were people doing this in the name of the Jewish faith, we'd hear from Chomsky. He's quite anti-semitic.
ReplyDeleteChomsky is a real piece of work. He came out passionately in favor of the Khmer Rouge genocide (both lying about the total deaths, and saying it was an acceptible price for all the great things the Khmer Rouge did for Cambodia. "Left fascist" is a perfect description for his ideology.
Chomsky is an interesting "piece of work." He occasionally makes sense, but more often than not I would tend to agree with your "left fascist" description of him.
DeleteI'm not sure he ever makes sense? Most of the time when I see him any more, it is when he rises to defend some brutal fascist dictator somewhere in the world. And I remember his "Manufacturing Dissent" crap, where he tried to make up the silliest conspiracy theory to cover for the fact that few anywhere agree with his crazy ideas.
ReplyDeleteI was specifically referring to the Chomsky of many years past. Unfortunately he is wasting his intellect on defending outdated ideology late in life.
