West spared disasters, ‘but doomed to Hell’

A HARDLINE Iranian cleric yesterday declared that God may be sparing the West from natural disasters so its people can sin more and doom themselves to Hell.

Kazem Sedighi, earlier claimed that women who do not dress modesty spread adultery in society, which increases earthquakes.

In Tehran’s main weekly prayer sermon yesterday, he defended the claim, but added further explanation on why some places are hit more than others.
