Re: Bahrains Treament of Shias [split: Bahrain appoints Jewish woman ...]
Not really, that is not the case for iranian sunnis and never has been.
I don't know if I'd go that far.
Despite being about 10% Sunni, Tehran has no Sunni masjid (Sunnis generally pray at the Pakistani embassy)...nor have they been allowed to build one. This in a city that has synagogues, churches, Zoroastrian temples, even a gurudwara...even though the entire non-Muslim population of Tehran is a mere fraction of the Sunni population. There definitely is institutionalized discrimination against them...though I do agree its not on the same level as that faced by Shias in places like Bahrain, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, etc...
