Iran Cleric Pummeled by ‘Badly Covered’ Woman After Warning

[BIG_DADDY]

BEAT THAT ASS GIRL!!!!!

An Iranian cleric said he was beaten by a woman in the northern province of Semnan after giving her a warning for being “badly covered,” the state-run Mehr news agency reported.

Hojatoleslam Ali Beheshti said he encountered the woman in the street while on his way to the mosque in the town of Shahmirzad, and asked her to cover herself up, to which she replied “you, cover your eyes,” according to Mehr. The cleric repeated his warning, which he said prompted her to insult and push him.

“I fell on my back on the floor,” Beheshti said in the report. “I don’t know what happened after that, all I could feel was the kicks of this woman who was insulting me and attacking me.”

Since the 1979 revolution that brought Shiite Muslim religious leaders to power, women in Iran have been required to cover their hair and body curves in public with head-scarves and loose-fitting coats, to protect religious values and “preserve society’s morals and security.”

The government condemns short, tight and colorful coats and loosely tied head-scarves, and routinely organizes police patrols to enforce the Islamic dress code. Public surveillance increases in summer when some women opt for flimsier clothing.

Beheshti said he was hospitalized for three days. The Iranian cleric said it was his religious duty to apply the principle of “commanding right and forbidding wrong,” and that he would continue to do so even after living through what he called “the worst day of my life.”

It isn’t the first time that clerics in Iran have been beaten up after delivering warnings, Mehr said.

Hopefully next time she will finish him off.

The funny thing is that he can't give any description of her.

Now that I think about it, any woman who's fast has a free ticket to commit crime in those countries. Security cameras and witnesses mean nothing to them.

Exactly, how cool is that? She was wearing a black burka and was heading in that direction.

A good stoning will take her down a peg.

I wonder if his injuries compare to the deaths of a number of school girls who were prevented from leaving a burning building by the religious police in Saudi Arabia because they were not wearing proper clothing?

Radical Islam is one f'ed up religion.

Good for her.
Hopefully she kicked him multiple times in the berries while yelling, “You won’t be using that again!”

Not cool when they start stoning every woman in the town.

His loss.

if you think about it, women in burkas are essentially ninjas. We need to train them in mixed martial arts and then release them all over the middle east.

I will gladly sign a petition to grant her immediate US citizenry if she is so inclined.
