Iran wants all Jews, Christians, to wear special identifying badges.

Ok, this one I think every person who reads this can understand if I show righteous indignation, yes?

Jesus, what a Friday...

Edit: OK, interesting. Apparently the article in question may not be Totally Accurate, but does mention another law passed 2 years ago that supposedly requires Jews and Christians to wear specific strips of fabric on robes or clothing.

I'm hoping that both turn out to be debunked, but I can't decide if it's better or worse for the law to have been on the books for 2 years and simply not enforced.

What do they want them to wear? Yellow Stars of David?

Colored strips of fabric in specific places, along with mandating "Islamic Dress" for muslims. Fun stuff! Really! Never going to go wrong.

Curiouser and curiouser ...

Put up a 2nd link - looks like the first story is getting disputed and may have been pulled because of it.

CIA fucked up their agitprop machine again.

Mirrors the trouble I've been having with M3's database the last few days.

I blame the terrorists.

Obviously you need to hand over M3's database to the NSA to be carefully managed and overseen.

Clearly the Puzzle Palace can unravel the mystery.

....Now I want to go to Islam, and shake a bunch of hands.

Cause I'm a non-Muslim, but I'm not Christian nor Jewish, and thusly don't require a colored strip.

Debunked.

Canadian Post, btw, is a right-wing newspaper well known for its biases. It has a written editorial policy to not publish any critical views of Israel policy.

That's a nice relief.
