... and Iranian Gays Get Death

— By Vince Beiser | Wed November 15, 2006 9:09 PM PST

The latest Iranian convicted of "moral corruption, battering and sodomy" was publicly hanged in the western town of Kermanshah to the cheers of hundreds of spectators, the official news agency IRNA reports. As I've mentioned before,
the regime has executed an estimated 4,000 gay men and lesbians since the 1979 revolution.

The Iranian former president was at Harvard University and he justified this practice of death to gays. There was silence. So much for "political correctness". WAKE UP. This is your future if Islam takes over European countries and America. Most Muslims support the application of Islamic Law.When the Muslim numbers grow in Europe and they get to have their own ethnic laws in their own neighborhoods, you can expect this. Why the silence?
