Right now, I think we should nail her window shut.

you mean the average american didn't care until 9/11.
middle east is fucked, and I agree with orbax that we should nuke the whole shit hole.
And i dont think the actions of 10 people killing says anything about Iran,
but the fact that Irans supreme court acquitted them because they were killing people involved in "Un-islamic" acts speaks volumes.
Even with those british naval folk that got captured....the iranians wanted to have them executed, and protested.
THEY DONT EVEN KNOW WTF FOR. they're just angry arab idiots.
And lets not forget about the mohammad cartoons.

While it's impossible to say European society was text book similar in times past there were a lot of similarities in family units and the whole honor idea all throughout the land.
Non religious/heretics/witches being burnt alive at the stake was common practice in Europe before.
A daughter getting pregnant outside the banner of marriage was banned from her family and doomed to a life of insults.
Don't treat the Arab world as savages when not so long ago the "modern" world was doing the same exact things.
It's just hypocritical and isn't advancing the situation in a better direction because imposed change results in resentment, rebellion towards the outside world and also a reinforcement in conservative ideology.

The irony of your position is pretty hilarious. You're angry at Iran's judicial system, yet you want to nuke the entire region.
That doesnt sound like justice to me.

Well, I'm sure the "financial compensation to their victims' families" will mitigate the atrocities committed.

The middle east is an excellent reason as to why there should be a very definite division of church and state within every country.
Letting people's interpretations on religion decide the lives of innocent people is reason enough to hate any country. It just so happens that many middle eastern countries appear to be focused on this form of 'justice'. :/
