Ridiculous apology
Sometime ago, a chap called Amir Taheri had spread a rumour that the government of Iran is preparing a law to impose certain dress codes for Jews and Christians in Iran. His claim was that this law had been approved by the Majlis and is now going to the Guardians Council. Many bloggers in Iran pursued the issue and it was later revealed that the entire story is the invention of Mr. Taheri.
Frankly, I think the whole idea behind such a rumour is to add another excuse for a military intervention in the case of Iran. Don’t you think somebody is deliberately putting certain pieces of a puzzle together to suggest the idea that the government of Iran is not better than the Nazis who forced the Jews to wear a certain marking on their dress and hence saying that the agenda of Iran is no different than the agenda of Hitler?
First of all, such a law has never been passed. It is a mere misinterpretation and clear slander. The political agenda is quite clear behind Taheri’s claims. The guy is so cheeky that he keeps defending his imaginary thesis without providing any evidence. A little study into his background shows what sort of a person he is. It is still funny that this man keeps repeating his ridiculous illusions. Isn’t there anybody there to wake him up? How far would he go in betraying his homeland? This is not an issue of defending a certain political system. It is an issue of integrity and honesty. This is a dishonest act. To him, means justify the ends. No one wishes to eradicate injustice by injustice and dishonesty. This chap has apparently exactly this very same approach to the political issues of Iran. This is just disgusting.
P.S. Read this post in Farsi (with all other Farsi bloggers links): "Who are you serving by these lies?"
