Iranian police have arrested more than 260 people, including three European citizens, on suspicion of spreading satanism, the state-run IRNA news agency reported Friday.
The report said the suspects were arrested on Thursday night in Shahryar County, west of the capital of Tehran, for “spreading the culture of satanism and nudity.” It did not elaborate.
It was not clear how such a large number of arrests were made in one night — if the suspects were in one location, at some gathering or party, or not.
Gatherings where unrelated men and women are seen together are illegal in Iran and considered a sin under Islamic law.
I’m guessing you also think the Houthi rebels had the moral high ground in attacking commercial civilian ships of African and Asian workers?
I’m guessing blockade is an act of war which Houthis didn’t start.
Oh that totally justifies attacking civilians and workers on cargo ships, good point! Poor brown people who aren’t related to the blockade should have to suffer to stick it to Saudi Arabia and the West.

If blockade hurts Saudis and the West enough to raise Houthis’ chances of survival, it’s justified. Sarcastic tone is not an argument and I’m not your enemy.
Mm. Fair enough. I just don’t trust their intentions.
