Classy: Iranian Newspaper Calls for Death of Carla Bruni

The nerve of Nicolas Sarkozy's wife to speak out against the stoning of women.

The hard-line, regime-backed daily Kayhan, which already had called the wife of President Nicolas Sarkozy a "prostitute," said her lifestyle meant she deserved a fate similar to that of the doomed Iranian woman Sakineh Mohammadi Ashtiani.

"Studying Carla Bruni's record clearly shows the reason why this immoral woman is backing an Iranian woman who has been condemned to death for committing adultery and being [an] accomplice in her husband's murder and, in fact, she herself deserves to die," Kayhan wrote.

French Foreign ministry spokesman Bernard Valero called the comments "unacceptable," and said Paris had told that to the mullahs' regime.

A Huffposter condemns this outrageous behavior, yet some commenters are so blinded by their hatred for American conservatives they see little problem with it.

The US government killed hundreds of thousands of civilians in Iraq with no accountability in sight (Obama makes sure he calls war-criminal Bush before his speech to get his permission to talk about Iraq!) and yet when a country like Iran which has been openly threatened by various violent US officials is dealing with one case of injustice, there is a huge outcry.

How many pregnant Iraqi women died during the invasion or had their new-born babies die? How many elderly or sick died because the US government bombed the country's basic infrastructure?

So many innocent people died in Iraq just like that and yet the war-mongers tells us that Iran is a horrible country.

The horrible country is the violent imperialist US. It has killed and tortured more people than all middle eastern countries combined in the last 40 years.

BDS, there is no cure.

Funny thing, Marina. For the longest part of your article, I thought you were talking about the conservatives in America. Wasn't until the end, when I realized you were talking about other male conservatives.

Where are the conservatives in this country calling for women to be stoned?

Meanwhile, the Iranian psychos carried out a mock execution of Ashtiani.
