To the government of Iran, religion is about novels, not people!
How many Muslims are there around the world who, in the views of the government of Iran, are not heretics and face serious risk of persecution because they are a religious minority? Zero?

How many people in Iran who possess Iranian citizenship and who claim to be Muslims have in fact crossed the border-line and passed into heresy? Zero?

This is very simple. Even if Iran is already completely full and enforces a lifetime maximum of two children per couple, it should be possible for Iran to deport heretics and give refugee status to an equal number of non-heretical Muslims from around the world.

How many non-heretical Muslims around the world would have to be suffering for their suffering to compare to the importance of The Satanic Verses? Would a hundred thousand be enough or would it have to be closer to a hundred million?
