Britain more dangerous than a jungle: Janati
2005-08-27
TEHRAN: Britain is a terrible place to live and anti-terrorist laws there make life as an animal in a jungle far safer, a top Iranian cleric said on Friday. "Day by day, corruption, tyranny, felony, insecurity and different dangers are attacking human society. Just look at the fight against terrorism in Britain," Ayatollah Ahmad Janati said in a Friday prayer sermon. "All gatherings are under the microscope. People should know they are being watched. In cinemas, parks, streets and even in the railway stations, cameras are watching," he said, asking "what kind of security is this when people are constantly monitored?" British police, he said, can also "arrest anyone without any evidence or pressing charges".

"Is this life for a human being? No animal in a jungle lives with the amount of insecurity that they have there," he alleged, slamming British authorities for also "spreading insecurity in Iraq, Afghanistan and Palestine."

#8  So a country in which women are buried waste-deep and then stoned to death isn't a jungle?

#4  Funny how the arrival of this apparent law of the jungle he's wailing about has coincided with the appearance and increasing activity of people of his persuasion, innit? Just coincidence, for sure.
