Iranian child rape victims forced to live on the street
Years ago, a close friend of mine was raped. I saw first hand the devastation that experience- as she put it, the most horrible thing somebody can go through and still live- can inflict upon a beautiful human being.
Being a Christian, she was surrounded by the warm and compassionate support of brothers and sisters in Christ, and reassured that her worth was in no way diminished by a tragedy which was in no way her fault.
In Iran, however, girls and women who are raped are rejected by their families- and large numbers of girls as young as nine are living on the streets of Iran's cities- especially the holy cities of Quom and Mashad.
One more reason why it's hard to take the religion of the Ayatollahs seriously- and to see Islamofascism as anything but the unmitigated evil it is.
One more reason to stand fast in our war against it, instead of cutting and running- as some would have us do- on any front.
