That is totally wrong and very sad.

I believe Iran and Saudi are horrible countries and the whole world should boycott them through various means.

That is totally wrong and very sad. It would be, if it really happened. Unfortunately, the only outlets I can find for this story are sources with a Christian or Jewish bias. But assuming it really happened: The only thing that would work against Saudi-Arabia and Iran would be: Stop buying oil from them.

Maybe Iran could build a wall to keep those people out.

The main reason stories like this are reported exclusively from conservative outlets is because your honest reliable mainstream liberal media usually purposefully refuse to report it.

Can you prove it? “Wrong” You virtually admitted it by basically describing this story as fake news due to the conservative source of the outlets. “Can you prove it?” The fact that incidences like this frequently appear in conservative outlets fail to show up in most mainstream liberal sources.

I had thought about checking additional source but then decided against it. I can see your point. It is better to get confirmation from diverse sources. Though sometimes some news may be ignored by left leaning media. It's a tricky thing. I would probably also want more confirmation.

What I find weird is that not one European news outlet is reporting it. Not even Christian ones. There are Israeli sources reporting it (Israel and Iran are enemies); Iranian Christian sources (one concerned party); and US-American Christian sources (of course). You'd think if this story was real, at least one European blog would mention it. But no... total silence. To be fair: In past years, there have been reports on European news about Ex-Muslims who have been punished for leaving Islam, in Saudi-Arabia and/or Iran. So it's possible that this story from the 11.8.2018 happened.

"I find your lack of logical thinking disturbing." Well, not really. But a good Star Wars quote/paraphrase makes a thread better in my opinion. Here is a hint as to why your logic is faulty. The opposite of "all ravens are black" is not "all ravens are white". EDIT to clarify. Me: "A story was only reported from outlets with a Christian/Jewish bias". You: "You only accept stories from outlets with a left-wing bias". That is false. I accept stories reported from neutral outlets; or when both leftist and rightist outlets report it. When only one side reports a story, I get suspicious. There are several reasons why one side may not report a story. One is, as you probably suggested, that the outlet is biased, and the story makes their side look bad. Another reason is that the story may be false, but the outlet reporting it anyway believes it makes the other side look bad. There may be other reasons. I never made any claims about whether I think the story is true. And I am still not making them.

well, when you go around propagating a mindset of terminal persecution coupled with regurgitated weekly cry-fests what can one expect. i have no sympathy for any religiously-tooled fiasco that's done nothing but screw the world sideways ever since its inception.

screwing the world sideways
getting in the the ground floor of laser-based death technologies was the topic around so many water coolers that wall street almost prematurely shut down from one too many clowns spreading the word around when they should be in churchs simultaneously going down on the master plaster caster who first invented compassionate conservatism as a way to vaporize people without ever having to hear a sound.
sjw 09/02/18 inspired at this very moment in time by that extra special sort of compassion that only american christians can serve up.

The Islamic Republic’s constitution, which is rooted in fundamentalist Sharia, states that Zoroastrians, Jews and Christians (excluding converts from Islam), can worship “within the limits of the law.”
So not at all?

That is totally wrong and very sad. It would be, if it really happened. It really happened. Shit like this has happened before in Iran although it's never officially acknowledged by the Islamic Republic. For instance, a 16 year old girl who was getting fucked by a man in his 40s got hanged after she smarted off to the judge. They claimed she was 21, but she was 16. Two boys got hanged for having sex with each other but the IRI lied and said the youths had raped a much younger boy. Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe has been in jail since 2016 (apparently for spying) though she never had access to any classified information. Everybody on this planet has some sort of bias. If some western media outlet wants to verify this story it can't be done. That's because the reporters would be charged with espionage as would any local sources. Another thing that might work is to send in some cruise missiles.
