Ebrahimi Denies Sex Tape

Zahra Amir EbrahimiThe Iranian actress Zahra Amir Ebrahimi has categorically denied she is the woman in a controversial new sex tape, she also claimed her ex-fiancé faked the sex video in revenge.

Ebrahimi has been fighting to save her image and avoid criminal prosecution in the strict Muslim country after a video was leaked onto the internet and released on DVD. The movie appears to show Ebrahimi and her ex-fiancé, only known as Mr. X, having sex.

The video sent shockwaves through Iran because it is illegal for unmarried couples to have sex and Ebrahimi is famous for starring in religious and moral TV programmes.

“I watched the film after I heard about the fuss from colleagues and the girl in it is not me.
I admit there are similarities to the character I played in Narges. It is possible to use studio make-up to have a person look like me. I have some knowledge of montage techniques and I know you can create a new face by distorting the features of another person.
According to the moral norms of Iranian society, it is very damaging for this film to be distributed under my name. If you look at my professional resume, you will see that I have taken part in mainly spiritual or religious films or programmes.”

Ebrahimi’s ex-boyfriend is in police custody after he was recently extradited from Armenia. He faces a possible $10,800 (£6,000) fine and three years behind bars.

‘Pornography Plague’ Worries Jewish Community

Little Joey may be sitting quietly in his room, glued to the computer, but do you know what he is watching? The statistics are frightening. They speak for themselves.

There are over 500 million pages of pornography on the Internet. Two out of five Internet users regular visit pornography sites. In a February poll of university students in America, 87% admitted having "virtual sex" with their computers.

Up until now, religious Jewish parents could delude themselves by saying, "Those statistics are for the Goyim." But a disturbing article recently published in Israel by a very respected Torah scholar, Rabbi Elisha Aviner, has changed all that. While the article does not cite hard statistics it makes it very clear that the problem has infiltrated the walls of Orthodox Judaism, and that a great many Jewish teenagers are hooked on Internet porn.

Sex For Survival

Consensual sex with the same gender is a form of diversion to male foreign nationals in Saudi Arabia, especially in the absence of partners other than their wives or girlfriends.

On weekends, a migrant worker who is sexually active can have more than five partners a night. The lusty behavior of migrant workers predisposes them to sexually transmitted infections, Arman said.

Anti Death Penalty Vigils Planned

The 19th of July will see anti-death penalty vigils being held all over the world to commemorate the public hanging in Iran of two gay men.

Mahmoud Asgari and Ayaz Marhoni were accused of raping a 13 year old boy, though several human right’s groups believed that this charge was invented in order to enable the authorities in Mashhad to serve a death penalty on the men who admitted to having gay sex, and denied the rape charge.
