Iranian president's blog wishes you merry Christmas


From the happy-fun holiday greeting on Mahmoud Ahmedinejad's weblog:

If Jesus Christ (peace be upon Him) was present today, he would order an encounter against those who would propagate corruption, obscenity and perversion, and try to nullify and exterminate the merits and the rights of women and diminish their position – a position that virgin Mary (peace be upon Her) – is their role model and sample.

Link (Thanks, Iz). Speaking of which, a BoingBoing reader in Iran who works for a government-controlled ISP tells us that BoingBoing is among the sites listed on a mandatory ban/filter list recently distributed to ISPs by the Iranian government — presumably because we "propagate corruption, obscenity and perversion."
