The Iranian government has launched a crackdown against Western-style clothing. More than 70,000 so-called "moral police" officers have been deployed in the capital Tehran, to enforce a government approved dress code. Women will be arrested if their headscarves do not fully cover their hair or their clothes show their figures too clearly. Men will be stopped for wearing necklaces or having hairstyles seen as inappropriate. Al Jazeera's Dorsa Jabbari reports from Tehran:

Problem of islamism
by hirre on Thu Jun 16, 2011 12:22 AM PDTThey put the responsibility on the victim (to cover herself) instead of the perpertrator...
The problem is that this similar behaviour exists in the west aswell. E.g. the judge asks "what were you wearing when the rapist saw you", which imo shouldn't be asked... But in the islamic countries they really take the price. They see every inch of a woman's body as a sexual spot.

Khemenei and the rest of the Olaghs like him, are no different. These Islamic thugs will be relegated to the dustbin of history, as we Iranians have done to many invaders such as these Arabs. Islam is dead in Iran and if anyone questions that, just look at the masses yearning to be free from it.

I also wonder how much of this is a setup as a pretext to use to prevent any gathering on the streets of Iran that has nothing to do with Hejab and all to do with dissatisfaction and uprising against the regime.
