I guess this is another reason why no one should travel to Iran...you undergo such a powerful spiritual experience that you instantly convert to islam! Good grief...how whacked out is Tony Blair's sister-in-law, anyway?
From the report at The Daily Mail:
Tony Blair’s sister-in-law has converted to Islam after having a ‘holy experience’ in Iran.
Broadcaster and journalist Lauren Booth, 43 - Cherie Blair’s half-sister - said she now wears a hijab head covering whenever she leaves her home, prays five times a day and visits her local mosque ‘when I can’.
She decided to become a Muslim six weeks ago after visiting the shrine of Fatima al-Masumeh in the city of Qom.
‘It was a Tuesday evening and I sat down and felt this shot of spiritual morphine, just absolute bliss and joy,’ she told The Mail on Sunday.
When she returned to Britain, she decided to convert immediately.
‘Now I don’t eat pork and I read the Koran every day. I’m on page 60. I also haven’t had a drink in 45 days, the longest period in 25 years,' she said.
Sounds to me more like this gal was more in need of getting off the booze than anything ...I'd like to remind her that by joining AA she could still retain her soul. I mean, perhaps islam can do something to inhibit your intake of libations, but to spend eternity bobbing up and down in the Sea of Fire seems a big trade off for some sobriety.
But, the fact of the matter is that this is yet another woman from the West who has converted to the charade of islam - the numbers don't lie, as this is reaching epidemic proportions. I guess I'm just not sure if it's the fact that under islam, a man can have a stable of wives or the fact that a woman can't speak to a male who isn't related....whichever, there's a draw somewhere in there. Perhaps it's the old "bad boy" syndrome...perhaps these women like the fact that the men of islam can stone them to death if they show part of their ankle.
P.s. After viewing the photo above, someone needs to tell Ms. Booth that she is showing WAY too much of her hair - those devil rays of seduction must be hidden more appropriately.
Tony Blair's sister-in-law Lauren Booth converts to Islam after a 'holy experience' in Iran
Tony Blair’s sister-in-law has converted to Islam after having a ‘holy experience’ in Iran.
Broadcaster and journalist Lauren Booth, 43 - Cherie Blair’s half-sister - said she now wears a hijab head covering whenever she leaves her home, prays five times a day and visits her local mosque ‘when I can’.
She decided to become a Muslim six weeks ago after visiting the shrine of Fatima al-Masumeh in the city of Qom.
‘It was a Tuesday evening and I sat down and felt this shot of spiritual morphine, just absolute bliss and joy,’ she told The Mail on Sunday.
When she returned to Britain, she decided to convert immediately.
‘Now I don’t eat pork and I read the Koran every day. I’m on page 60. I also haven’t had a drink in 45 days, the longest period in 25 years,' she said.
'The strange thing is that since I decided to convert I haven’t wanted to touch alcohol, and I was someone who craved a glass of wine or two at the end of a day.’
Refusing to discount the possibility that she might wear a burka, she said: ‘Who knows where my spiritual journey will take me?’
Before her awakening in Iran, she had been ‘sympathetic’ to Islam and has spent considerable time working in Palestine. ‘I was always impressed with the strength and comfort it gave,’ she said of the religion.
Miss Booth, who works for Press TV, the English-language Iranian news channel, has been a vocal opponent of the war in Iraq.
In August 2008 she travelled to Gaza by ship from Cyprus, along with 46 other activists, to highlight Israel’s blockade of the territory.
She was subsequently refused entry into both Israel and Egypt.
In 2006 she was a contestant on the ITV reality show I’m A Celebrity . . . Get Me Out Of Here!, donating her fee to the Palestinian relief charity Interpal.
She said she hoped her conversion would help Mr Blair change his presumptions about Islam.

May she and the bastards she had experience every degradation that a Muslim woman goes through.
She should follow up on it by having her clitoris circumcised for good measure. Liberalism is a mental illness.
