Iran launches moral dress crackdown
2007-07-24
Iran on Monday launched a new wave of a moral crackdown against women who “dress like models” and men whose hairstyles are deemed unIslamic, police told local media. Tehran’s police force dispatched dozens of police cars and minibuses into the early evening rush-hour to enforce the dress rules at major squares in the city centre, an AFP correspondent said. The new “plan will increase security in society” — which is limited to Tehran but will later extend nationwide — comes after a pre-summer drive by the police resulted in thousands of warnings and hundreds of arrests. Tehran police told reporters that the campaign would target women who were badly veiled, wore overly tight overcoats, short trousers and “dressed like models.”

#1  Let me guess here:

These would be picked up cause "dressed like models:


And probably these, that waist is just so small!


Whoa -- this could go over big time in the States:


So how does the Iranian Women Rowing team pass:



But, the Police Women? They've got it together as the role model for every young lady


The interesting thing here is, there are fashion models on the runway... and I bet, the young ladies of Iran have fast learned, how to have fashion..... while hiding it.

I'll tell you guys this --- this kind of stuff is scary. The women of the good ole USA need to wake up -- and know... this could be us.

Oh -- not me, or my friends, cause we are of an age, but then? I've got some more years in me. How long, before an Islamic Revolution could take over the USA?

We should really wonder... do we really want our grand daughters and our great great grand daughters -- to face this?

I wonder, will they have pictures made now that they will keep hidden in a most secret place? Will they, when the heart seems most sad, pull those pictures out, looking and soaking in, what is so different from what they have? It will be, our dress.
