Welcome to European Tribune. It's gone a bit quiet around here these days, but it's still going.

First of all I have to say that I am not that optimistic when it comes to the theocracy in Iran and their peaceful intentions.  There are plenty of examples of that regime supporting terrorist groups like Hezbollah in Lebanon, it issuing a death verdicts like the fatwa issued over Salman Rushdie and it actively pursuing and killing publishers of Salman Rushdie's book "The satanic verses", all over the world.

Not to absolve the current regime in any way, but what you are speaking about happened under the previous supremo, and the pre-previous government.

Yes, that might be but the fatwa still stands and the theocracy still stands with their religious totalitarianism and oppressing laws especially against women.
