War on Christmas in Iran

By See-Dubya  •  January 12, 2007 12:39 AM

Via Radio Free Europe/ Radio Liberty’s Iran Report:

Iranian state security agents arrested 14 Christians in three cities on December 10, apparently to prevent them from celebrating Christmas and New Year, RFE/RL’s Radio Farda reported on December 17, citing the group Human Rights Activists in Iran. The group issued a December 16 statement to report the arrests in Tehran, Karaj — west of Tehran — and Rasht on the northern Caspian coast, though two of the arrested have been released, the broadcaster stated. Group member Sadeq Naqashkar told Radio Farda that those arrested are allegedly Christian converts.

And so as “converts” (or “apostates”) they may face capital punishment.

AS FOR THE DETENTION of six Iranian “diplomats” at the “consulate” which the Pentagon denies was a consulate today: think we’ll just let them go again?
