Irani media calls French First Lady a prostitute and calls for her death!

**France has said “insults” in the Iranian media aimed at its first lady, Carla Bruni-Sarkozy, are unacceptable. **
**One state-run newspaper denounced her as a prostitute after she publicly criticised Iran for threatening to stone an Iranian woman to death. **

     **But Kayhan, the paper which made the original comments, went on to call for Mrs Bruni-Sarkozy's death.**

On Tuesday, Kayhan, which acts as a mouthpiece for Iran’s conservative Islamic leadership, reiterated its attack, adding that the Italian-born French first lady deserved to die for supporting her.
“This Italian prostitute’s indignation at Kayhan’s report came while she has had illegitimate relationships with different people before and after marrying [French President Nicolas] Sarkozy,” Kayhan said.
“Reviewing Carla Bruni’s records clearly shows why this immoral woman has supported an Iranian woman who has committed adultery, has contributed to the murdering of her husband and has been sentenced to death, and in fact she herself [Mrs Bruni-Sarkozy] deserves death.”

Iranian insults against Bruni 'unacceptable' - France - BBC News

They are calling the French First Lady a prostitute, calling for war against the US and working against Pakistan behind the scenes with India. What kind of nation are these idiotic Iranians???

It didn’t come from the government officias, it was just a newspaper. :smack:

TEHRAN, Iran — Iran has sought to distance itself from harsh remarks by a hard-line newspaper, which called France’s first lady a “prostitute” for condemning the stoning sentence against an Iranian woman convicted of adultery.
In comments Tuesday, Foreign Ministry spokesman Ramin Mehmanparast says “insulting” foreign dignitaries like Carla Bruni-Sarkozy is incorrect and not sanctioned by the government.
The Kayhan daily first called Bruni-Sarkozy a “prostitute” Saturday. It repeated the criticism Tuesday. Like the Iranian woman, it said, she too deserves to die.
Sakineh Mohammadi Ashtiani, whose sentence has been temporarily suspended, could still face execution after a final review of her case. The case has prompted an international outcry.

Seriously? You multinicks are a sad disgrace to the American founding fathers. Freedom of speech is universal. It does not change just because someone else does not apply it. If you believe in freedom of speech you would agree with the right of the Irani press to say what they wish.

Not when the the news paper in question is mouthpiece of State and only chooses to say what Mullahs wants it say. This is no freedom but coercion.

Iran Stoning Woman ‘Faces 99 Lashes’

An Iranian woman set to be stoned to death for adultery is facing 99 lashes for a photograph allegedly of her without a headscarf, her son has said.

Sakineh Mohammadi-Ashtiani has been the subject of international outcry over her death sentence. But she now faces the additional punishment for a picture that appeared in The Times in Britain.

In an interview published on French magazine La Regle du Jeau’s website, the woman’s son Sajjad Ghaderzadeh said they learnt of the lashes from inmates released from the prison in Tabriz, where his mother is being held.

He said a prison judge had confirmed the sentence for spreading “corruption and indecency” with the photo. But the snap, featured in The Times, was apparently not even of 43-year-old Ms Mohammadi-Ashtiani - which the paper has acknowledged and apologised for.

The image of a woman without a hijab was published after it was passed to the newspaper by one of her lawyers. But six days later, The Times said the attribution of the picture was incorrect and the woman shown was actually Susan Hejrat, a political activist living in Sweden. Mr Ghaderzadeh said it was “certainly not” his mother.

Ms Mohammadi-Ashtiani’s lawyer Mohammad Mostafei, who has fled Iran, said he received the images from Mr Ghaderzadeh - a claim he denied. Mr Ghaderzadeh has since written an open letter claiming the new sentence is “an excuse” for the authorities to increase the “harassment” of his mother.

“We do not know how that picture was originally obtained, nor to whom the picture belongs,” he said. He also claimed Ms Mohammadi-Ashtiani had not been allowed any visits from family members or her lawyer for the past two weeks.

The mother-of-two received 99 lashes after being found guilty in 2006 of an “illicit relationship” with two men after her husband’s death. She was later also convicted of adultery and, although she retracted a confession made under duress, she was sentenced to be stoned.

Foreign governments have condemned the brutal punishment and the Vatican has confirmed it is in touch with Tehran “through diplomatic channels” to try and halt the action.

This is frightening. The crazy Ayatullahs and I-am-a-dinner-jacket are a disgrace for Iranian people. Really reprehensible conduct.

Re: Irani media calls French First Lady a prostitute and calls for her death!

Since when French have become so sensitive about their women being called prostitutes?

also, I agree that whatever news paper did is not right but then how many of you who are posting against the news paper, voiced your concerned when Ahmedi Nijaad was called names in US media (print and TV)? It was free speech then but not now?

Re: Irani media calls French First Lady a prostitute and calls for her death!

Yes, the Iranian press are free to say what they want as long as it's approved by the Iranian government. You wish to claim otherwise CM?

Re: Irani media calls French First Lady a prostitute and calls for her death!

And how does that negate what I said?

Re: Irani media calls French First Lady a prostitute and calls for her death!

I don't think most people are intersted in defending Sarkozy's wife especially after seeing her naked photos on printed shopping bags. This is a non issue really.
