Tehran, 27 May (AKI) - A top Iranian cleric from the northeast, Ayatollah Ahmad Elmalhoda, has reportedly called feminists "whores and foreign spies".
"These whores, clutching a piece of paper in their hands to gather signatures, are working for foreign powers and want to destabilise the Islamic Republic," said Elmalhoda.
He is the highly influential prayer leader in the northeastern holy Shia city of Mashad.
Elmalhoda has called on the government to "intervene decisively against these whores, because it is improper to leave them to act with impunity."
A few weeks ago, Elmalhoda said women who do not wear the Islamic veil as instructed "turned men into animals."
Verbal attacks against feminists in Iran are also being accompanied by a vast judicial offensive.
Eight feminists involved in a campaign to gather "a million signatures in favour of equality" were recently given jail terms of various lengths and sentenced to public floggings.
The Iranian authorities have in the last two weeks censured twelve websites close to the feminist movement.

I'm sorry to say you'd be hard pressed to find feminists with a realistic understanding of Islam. YouTube - Rosie O'Donnell is out of her mind!
"radical Christianity is just as threatening as radical Islam"
Or maybe Rosie and the audience of the View are just, really, really stupid. |

Current Mood: | Re: Cleric: Feminists are 'Whores'... Radical Christianity also believes feminists are "whores". And worse. "The feminist agenda is not about equal rights for women. It is about a socialist, anti-family political movement that encourages women to leave their husbands, kill their children, practice witchcraft, destroy capitalism and become lesbians."
-- Pat Robertson, in a 1992 Iowa fundraising letter opposing a state equal-rights amendment.
As SouthernDemocrat pointed out, there are few progressive women who believe radical religious extremists of any stripe are our friends or allies.

Proof that Christians hate women's rights.
Femnists who oppose the war on terror, take note.

If the American government was doing nothing to stop religious fanatics who are killing and conniving to apply Islamic law over those unable to resist around the world, would feminists continue to attack the American government because of 16 year old threats posed by impotent old white Christian men?
Or would they be lobbying our elected representatives trying to get them interested in standing up for Human Rights around the world?
Women have the rule of law to protect their rights in the United States. But if the rule of secular law in the United States is threatened womens rights will be lost. Are feminists so short sighted that they can't connect the dots?

Everyone in SW Asia and northern Africa are in cahoots aren't they. Their ominous hive mind is seeking to assimilate the world.

FYI, I would not be using pat robertson's quotes. He is not the full cut of an American Christian. What you rather should be using is quotes from the AVERAGE american christian; which we all know, media personalities like Pat Robertson are not average. |
