Outrage When Ahmadinejad Hugs Chavez's Mother
"Iranian clerics have slammed conservative President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad for "clowning around" when he gave a consoling hug to Hugo Chavez's grieving mother, a violation of the country's strict Islamic rules about touching women. Iranian media ran photos of Ahmadinejad embracing the woman and crying at Chavez's funeral, raising the ire of the country's powerful clerics who called the hug "forbidden," according to translations by The Associated Press."* There are a lot of reasons to criticize Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, but now he's under fire among conservative Muslim leaders for hugging Hugo Chavez's mother after the Venezuelan leader's death. The horror! http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/headline...-grieving-mom/ |
