Is the "Gay Executions in Iran" story being ginned up for political purposes?

29-09-2007 21:06

There's been a lot of talk about Ahmadinejad's statement about how Iran supposedly "doesn't have gays like you do" - which of course totally distracts from the substance of his speech in which he proclaimed that Iran was not going to attack anyone and that he didn't deny the holocaust as claimed but only questioned why the Palestinians had to suffer for it.

Children of 5767-Gaza: Quality of Mercy Revisited

29-09-2007 15:40

THE DEAD DO NOT SPEAK ~~~ THE SOUNDS OF SILENCE IN PALESTINE The Hebrew year just ended and the statistics are now available... statistics that show how many Palestinians were MURDERED by the Israeli army in the past year.
