Hi Curt,

>Iranian political leaders are aware that such people exist. 

Where did you read this propaganda? "Social movement", he actually used that word? How many social movements does he recognise as such in Iran? And "severe laws" against being gay, isn't that a euphemism? I'm sorry but execution is not a "severe law", it's the end of law. 

>I think he got a proper reception and that all leaders of countries where people are executed and who talk and act agressively ought to be received in the same manner.
