Web Developer Sentenced To Death In Iran
An anonymous reader points out the case of Saeed Malekpour, an Iranian-born permanent resident of Canada who worked as a web developer. In 2008, during a visit to Iran, Malekpour was arrested and detained by Iranian authorities on charges that he designed and moderated "adult content websites." In 2009, he was sentenced to death for "acting against the national security, insulting and desecrating the principles of Islam, and agitating the public mind." Malekpour wrote photo-uploading software, and in a letter he sent from prison, he said it was used by porn sites without his knowledge. This week an Iranian court reviewed the case and confirmed that the death sentence was an acceptable punishment. According to one Canadian publication, "Human rights monitors believe that Malekpour, one of a number of people held on Internet-related charges, is trapped by a convoluted justice system that is manipulated by rival factions in Iran."
Right Islam is a violent faith based in hate. It always was, right from its beginnings but for some reasons we are required to ignore history both ancient and recent to be politically correct.
Personally I think we should declare war on Islam, and the best part is nobody needs to get hurt or killed! At least not by our hands, though they may do those things to each other. If there is one thing certain proven by their own fear of it, its that our modern American culture is viral, pervasive, and addicting.
What we should do is install directional transmitters in any friendly territory near the Muslim world with so much envelope power they can't jam it easily, or if they can it makes their own communications equally useless.
Then we take our high altitude bombers and drop Hollywood productions, clothing, pamphlets, etc on every major city every night; extolling American values, American products, and American propaganda. It will probably cost less than the munitions we dump on them now. We don't have to send soldiers into die, we don't have detain children in camps and we don't have to harm anyone. I bet there will be next to nothing left of Islam inside of 20 years.
