On the other hand…
It seems that one Iranian news site, Tabnak, is no longer accusing the Baha’is of carrying out the explosion in the Shiraz mosque.
Nope. It now says Bahais are so pleasure-seeking and chicken-hearted that they don’t even dare to identify themselves, let alone to plot a terrorist attack.
I’m confused now! Are we Baha’is the bombers or are we wimps?
Funny thing, when you come to think about it. Fifty-four chicken-hearted Baha’is in Shiraz, who, apparently, didn’t dare to identify themselves, were such pleasure seekers that they got themselves arrested for running an educational project for under-privileged Muslim children. The intelligence services in Shiraz must be clairvoyant.
You can find the story here, but only if you can read Farsi. Hat-tip to Erfan.

If it didn’t involve the very real oppression of innocents the logical contradictions involved in both the way people try to justify their actions towards the Baha’is in both Iran and Egypt would be kind of funny. Perhaps one day when the Baha’is in these countries are free there will be some excellent comedies made about the ludicrous behavior the religious and secular leadership involved.
Phillipe, the contradictions and ironies in the situation are horrible. And, of course, you are right, we are talking about major oppression of individuals, indeed of a whole community, purely because they are Baha’is.
