This "real" interpretation is just damage control. This wasn't lost in translation. That excuse posted is seriously spin control.

can you imagine the thread you and your buddy roland would make if America hung people in 2005 for being gay.

my guess is you'd be a little upset and call America out for it.

I'd be more upset if the US shot and bombed innocent people.

Why should you be tolerant of anything you don't like?

Good question.

What's your solution then?

I suspect they have just as many homosexuals in Iran, as in America or anywhere else. But how many homosexuals are going to admit being homosexuals, if they know they will be punished by death? How many will take any chances of engaging in intercourse or any intimate behavior?

Sheesh, Ahmadinejad and his spin machine are making themselves look even more foolish and absurd.

Christianity does not condone homosexuality either btw. They leave it up to god for the homosexuals to burn and suffer in hell forever.

iraq attacked..then withdrew...Iran still kept attacking.
Peace is recognized as being the absence of war b/t countries. If a country is at war it is not at peace.
