Spray Their Faces with Rosewater Not Acid

Are these rules for the religious police in Iran real, or is this satire?  (Answer: real as can be.)

• Don't use a razor blade to slash their faces (as has been permissible and very much done by the disciplinary forces patrolling the cities), use Kleenex.
• If you see too much makeup on women's faces, don't spray their faces with acid (as has been permissible and very much done by the disciplinary forces patrolling the cities), use rosewater.

I think these guys have a leg up on the Saudi muttawa.

Miss Kelly, we must continue to get these stories out. One or two and you can say it's an anomaly. Hundreds and it's institutionalized in the Muslim culture.
