Subject: RE: BS: Obama/____________ '08???
I have friends who lived in Iran some years back. They liked to wear Western casual clothes, were clean-shaven and liked to go to the Disco. If you do that now in Iran, you risk violence.

What I said is quit correct, although the extent of opression by the Imams is less in some Moslem-dominated countries than in others. Drinking, drugs, your sex lie, the friends you keep, the clothes you wear, the food you eat, even your haircut can get you in trouble.

Obama can reject his birth into Islam and all of us (including myself) will accept that. In Iran, rejecting Islam in public can get you killed.
