The IRI’s campaign against Baha’is continues
September 21st, 2007The report notes:
The bulldozing of a Baha’i cemetery in Iran last week is the latest in a series of incidents in a government-led campaign of hatred against Baha’is.
The destruction of the cemetery by individuals using heavy equipment occurred between 9 September and 10 September near Najafabad, on the outskirts of Isfahan. What happened there is nearly identical to what happened in July in Yazd, where another Baha’i cemetery was extensively damaged by earth-moving equipment.
Despite such hatred and consisted abuse, the Baha’i World News Service also published an article last week encouraging Iranian Baha’is “to respond with composure, perseverance, and a redoubled commitment to work towards the common good in Iran.” (Click here for full article)

These hateful sorry fanatics are violating their very own laws. According to shia laws, it is forbidden to destroy cemeteries. They are so blinded by hatred preached to them by the crafty ayatollahs that they don’t even honor Islam’s rules of behavior. The world must condemn these wanton acts of barbarism. Apparently their heartless oppression of the living Baha’is is not good enough for them. Now, they are after the dead. These people are the truly dead and the dead corpses they are disturbing are in the realm of glory where hate and the hateful have no place.
