Cannes Kiss Horror

If I were Iranian actress Leila Hatami I would defect to a decent country and seek asylum. She received a greeting peck on the cheek from Cannes Film Festival president Gilles Jacob. According to Iranian morals she should have recoiled in horror and kicked him in the balls. Islamic students in Iran are now demanding Leila be flogged for her "sinful act" under article 638 of the criminal code, which deals with public morality. The maximum sentence is 100 lashes in public and would probably lead to the victim of this brutal torture being admitted to hospital. Amnesty Internationale's Tom Davies says such torture is banned under international law, but Muslim nutters don't give a damn about that. Suppressing non-Islamic behaviour is their sole concern (CLICK).
