You Couldn’t Make This Stuff Up: Hide Your Dog!
Fox News is reporting that a 70 year old man has been arrested for - horrors! - walking his dog on the streets of Tehran. He faces time in jail and 30 lashes because Islamic law regards dogs as ‘impure’. Iranians who own the filthy animals must keep them indoors.
On an interesting side-note, Iranian president Ahmadinejad just purchased 4 guard dogs in Germany at a cost of over $100,000.
Impurity is as impurity does....
