Iran Cleric Denounces Dog Owners

[BeeJay]

From the BBC middle east web site.

Moral depravity?

A quote. "I demand the judiciary arrest all dogs with long, medium or short legs - together with their long-legged owners," Hojatolislam Hassani is quoted as saying in the reformist Etemad newspaper.

Now this sounds totally nuts to me. But 'Last year, he publicly thanked police for their policy of exclusively confiscating short-legged dogs in Urumiyeh.' (w00t)

Pity they don't arrest him & throw away the key!

do we really want an anti-dog martyr on our hands? just ignore this uninformed creep, he'll crawl back under his rock soon enough :thumbsup: after all, the article even says dog ownership is on the up where he is, so obviously even his 'followers' arent listening to him :lol:
