Great moments of marital bliss
Every once in a while you read of a truly touching example of Islamic respect for women.
A man helps his wife with a shroud while attending a ceremony to sign up volunteers as suicide bombers in support of the Palestinian people at a cemetery in Tehran.
What happens after these two shahids detonate themselves. He gets 72 more women? What does she get?
And, I guess, this isn't true.
UPDATE:For more commentary (or more precisely no commentary) on this lovely ceremony check out Shlemazl blog.
UPDATE II: Featured in this week's Carnival of the Insanities.
UPDATE III: Featured in the Bullwinkle Blog's Sunday Funnies.
