"Apology"--FALSE Iran Dress Code Story

Steven D on Booman Tribune has this: "A few days late and many dollars short, but you take what you can get from warmongers: :

TORONTO — A Canadian newspaper apologized Wednesday for publishing an erroneous story last week claiming that an Iranian law would require Jews and Christians to wear badges identifying them as religious minorities. [...]
Douglas Kelly, editor-in-chief of the National Post, ran a column on page 2 Wednesday explaining the story was based on a column by Amir Taheri, an Iranian author and journalist, and two expatriates Iranians living in Canada. It is now clear the story is not true. Given the seriousness of the error, I felt it necessary to explain to our readers how this happened.

Should you care to read the whole explanation it's there on Booman. Unfortunately, like sewage flowing into a river, this lie will be hard to suck back up into the cesspool from where it came.
