GAYS EXECUTED

GAYS EXECUTED

This from The Gay Patriot

London – 20 April 2006

The Iranian government is executing gay and bisexual men under the cover of rape and kidnapping charges, according to a major new investigation by Simon Forbes of the UK-based gay and lesbian human rights group OutRage!

Anyone here ever read Marco Polo? He wrote accounts of bisexual and homosexual behavior among Muslims as he traveled through their areas. Those kinds of stories were common before him and even more common after his time.

Think about it. Under Muslim law, an unmarried man can have no sexual contact with a woman under pain of death for one or both.

Well let’s see, women are out, what does that leave?

My 18 months in Iran were not the most pleasant. Not many of my fellow American workers enjoyed it. We had a few gay chaps among our number. As usual they were office, warehouse or medical workers. They seemed to have a great time there. I know this is an extreme anecdotal observation, but that’s the way I saw it. And I saw it clearly.

The point is if the Iranian Government were to execute all the men guilty of gay behavior, they would decimate their population. On the other hand, it’s a convenient charge to bring against men they don’t want around. I doubt if they have to bring much proof to the judges. The judge would only say, “Of course he’s guilty. We all do that.”
