It was not enforced at sword point. They used guns.
Bottomline: They are quite radical and are known to fund even more radical organizations such as Hez. Making excuses for them doesn't cut it.
Now really, that is all I have time for.

D-oh, yes, I meant Sharia law.
So it's been suggested that Iran is run on a day-to-day basis the same way Afghanistan was under the Taliban... that's not the information I have.
I would like to see some independent source for this.
BTW, Sharia law is understood to be the basis for the Iraqi constitution. But I don't believe they plan to stone women for walking unescorted on the street as happened in Afhanistan... at least I hope not.
