Every time I add to my blog, I check out a couple of others. The variety is amazing, just today I saw a barely comprehensible teen-age blog, sped past a pornographic one, tried to decipher one written in Slovakian, where I think the writer was apologising for being sick ( cognates) and finally came to an Iranian one.
I scanned past the Arabic just to see if there were any pictures. There was one that I couldn't quite make out and it made me uneasy. Their laws state that for murder or sexual offense a girl can be executed from the age of 9, a boy from 16.
They mentioned the case of one girl sentenced for prostitution. Civil rights groups claim she is retarded and was forced into prostitution at age 8 and had a child at 9. The government disagrees.
The site also claims 20 or so people whipped each other into a suicide frenzy against the U.S. and that Iran recently unveiled a statue or column honoring the terrorists who killed American soldiers some years ago. No, I didn't keep the name of the blog.
Add scary to the list of blog topics. What a world.
