[quote]A man will have drops of acid poured into his eyes as punishment for blinding his lover's husband after Iran's Supreme Court upheld his sentence this weekend.
The man, known as Mojtaba, threw acid into the face of taxi driver named Alireza after it was alleged the man had an affair with Mojtaba’s wife.
Iran's Islamic code allows for “an eye-for-an-eye” retribution, called “qisas”, in the case of violent crime but they are rarely carried out, the Daily Mail reports.
But the prosecutor successfully argued that his client had exercised his right to qisas and the supreme court upheld a lower court ruling.
Mojtaba's lawyer reportedly asked for forensic specialists to "oversee the blinding of the convict".
Qisas sentences are heavily criticised by international human rights groups.[/quote]

Ah you did.
It's Iran, Sharia law permits this shit. It's barbaric, to say the least.
Exodus 21:24 and Exodus 21:25
Eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot,
Burning for burning, wound for wound, stripe for stripe.
Better listed in Leviticus 24:20
a fracture for a fracture, an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. Whatever anyone does to injure another person must be paid back in kind.
If Christians condemn the actions they go against the word of God. :smug:
The boxes look like Bibles to me.
And the wife shall be stoned for having an affair.
Did I go back in time?

And the stone shall be blinded for touching a woman.
the majority of the US states also have an eye for an eye system when it comes to murder
see: capital punishment in the US
have they not heard the saying "an eye for an eye makes the world blind"?

As long as said ban doesn't include lysergic acid diethylamide.

Because Iran would listen to Ghandi's reasoning. :rolleyes:

Jesus said that.
I don't think Iran is a huge fan of Jesus' ideologies.
Also, before anyone says anything, yes, Gandhi quoted it and unfortunately Modern Warfare 2 too.

Eh?
[QUOTE=BANNED USER;26657737]Because Iran would listen to Ghandi's reasoning. :rolleyes:[/QUOTE]
so what's your excuse then for the death penalty being used in the majority of US states?
an eye for an eye makes the whole world blind
or at least makes this guy blind

I don't have one because I don't agree with it. I was making a statement that Iran doesn't give a fuck what anyone says.

Yay for old testement stuff.
It also says to "turn the other cheek"
[QUOTE=JDK721;26657789]so what's your excuse then for the death penalty being used in the majority of US states?[/QUOTE]
Because USA has so many citizens with differentiating opinions that it is perceived as hypocritical, if it actually isn't.
Ah just forget these people, let them mutilate each other.

Perfumly didn't see it coming either from the looks of it.
Couldn't they just remove his eyes? It would be far less painful, and you needn't worry about toxic fumes from the acid.
Not that I would ever condone such a thing....
The way society works in some places is truly fucked up.
