Hi, Sherri. I must tell you that not for a minute do I accept that self-serving, slanted and cynical appeal to emotion.
What a really smarmy piece of trash that was. Doesn't that in the very least, make you feel... dirty?
Hollie,
Wow, that you feel nothing for the plight of this nonJewish Iranian woman and the human rights abuses inflicted on her says loads about you.
I cannot link to the article telling this specific story, but Tehran Bureau website has story after story, equally as horrible as this story, about human rights abuses against political prisoners inside Iran.
My husband met an Iranian a few days ago who immigrated here 11 years ago to the US, he received Amnesty as a Christian persecuted, and came here with his whole family, a wife and two kids. His problems began when he was in a Taxi and stopped by the Basiji, and arrested for being drunk, illegal in Iran. My husband asked him why did you wait until 11 years ago to leave, he said he was happy there until he began to be singled out after that one incident. If people stay within the rules and do not get negative attention of the Mullahs, they can live in peace there, whether they are Jewish, Christian or Muslim, but let them violate some rule and start to be singled out by the Authorities, then there is no telling what their fate will be.

Let's not pretend that your story has any truth in reality. Your claimed heart-felt concern for for the poor, oppressed woman just reeks of the slimy odor of self-serving deceit.
Spare us your your invented concern and false "feelings".
Hollie,
Your stupidity is really something to behold, the practice of rape inside Iranian prisons has been known about for decades. Robert Fisk wrote about it, the rape of MEK teenage girls, they were raped before they were executed.
Here is an article addressing the problem, an Iranian official is even acknowledging the problem, in 2009.
"Allegations of prison authorities' use of rape as a means of punishment or intimidation in the Islamic republic are nothing new.
But for the first time, a high-profile figure in the Islamic establishment has acknowledged the apparent rise in the practice, and is calling for an investigation.
Former parliament speaker Mehdi Karrubi was a losing reformist candidate for president in Iran's contentious June 12 election, but in the aftermath has strengthened his position as a leading opposition figure by taking a number of stances that make the regime uncomfortable.
None has been more controversial than his revelation in a letter published earlier this month to former President and Assembly of Experts head Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani that a number of protesters, women and young boys alike, detained in the postelection unrest had been subjected to brutal rapes.
New Prison-Rape Allegations In Iran Bring Practice To Light
There is even a video in the article, a woman addressing her rape.
So, what happened, since this call for an investigation of prison rapes in 2009? The man who called for the investigation was placed under house arrest, and the allegations were not investigated.
