If the Jerusalem post was so concern about the mistreatment of Iranian girls how com they are not talking about what the feudal monarchy in Saudi Arabia that is also involved in worst behavior against women.
I guess what the Jerusalem post is doing is trying to gain sympathy in case they bomb the nasty and dirty girl killing country of Iran.
That is why I never take bias news too seriously but sometimes is good to research on how much is true and how much is propaganda and why only is been concentrated on Iran when is other Islamic countries that do the same.

I agree with the Iranian people taking control of their country from the illegal regime and then do what they wish to Khamenei - which is likely to execute him for war-crimes against humanity.

Your thinking too rationally here's what I make of it.
The girl is arrested for a crime but she is a virgin.
A virgin can not go to hell in this particular belief system.
So the man has to marry her and have sex with her.
The man marries here so he is not in sin for having sex with someone he's not married to.
Now if the girl is executed and is guilty of the crime they believe she will go to hell.
If the girl dies a virgin and is guilty of the crime she would go to heaven because virgins don't go to hell.

I am outraged also, but I can not stop thinking that is a motive for all this information coming from the Jerusalem post in view of what is going on with Israel and the talks of attacks in Iran.
Still Saudi Arabia has one of the worst records on treatment of woman and we get news all the time but because is nothing going on with Saudi Arabia and the US but oil money exchange you don't get to see much of the news.

Islam professes enlightenment but all I've read indicates it's a groin-centred culture, a misogynistic paradise for males and hell on earth for females and children. Very primitive, obsessed with 'virginity' and in even worse examples, with female circumcision.

Probably the same way as they see Christianity. It's all in what you hear about. I am positive that the majority of Islam's followers do not think this way.

It amazes me that some people are more concerned about the possible alternative motives behind the story than about the fact that children have been so abused?
Where are your priorities? Politics or human life?
